Happy 4th Of July

On July 4th, 1776
This great nation, the United States of America,
In a struggle for what was right and free,
Was proudly born...
May we celebrate that precious freedom
For which our forbears fought so bravely...
The freedom that is inherent
In the Stars and Stripes, our revered flag...
Celebrate Freedom
This Fourth of July!
Have a fabulous Day....

No Sale! :-(

Well, my father-in-laws e-bay items did not sell. But he's OK with that. We'll hold on to the items and maybe try it again in a year or so. 


It really can be horrible how some people respond to things like this. When TMZ contacted us for the story, we said sure, why not. Out of 37 comments, 99% were derogatory. 


The comments were really quite nasty. And very judgmental. I suppose we could have replied to all of those remarks with  some of our own. But why?  Our family's goal was to help out our father. If he could use the money for a nice trip or whatever he wanted,,, it is his right to do so.  


Who's worse? The Prostitute, the one buying the prostitute or the pimp? Regardless of what we might think, it is not our place to judge. We don't know the story of any of them.  So until we are in their shoes, we need to keep our opinions to ourselves.


Thanks to everyone out there who considered the items. If, and when we ever decide to re-post them, I'll send a blog.


My best,

Diane Story

Those Crazy Tunes!

What Would You DO For A Klondike Bar?

***************************************
It's a tune that gets stuck in my head when I'm writing and stuck on a paragraph.  So I thought i'd share it to see how many of you do the same thing. Or,,, what tune churns in your brain when you get stuck on your manuscript? Gotta love those commercials...

Have a great day,
