Creative Writing > Humor Humor: Self reflection: 14 of 75

"The Secret Society of Male Menopause" Part 1 Have you ever thought to ask a woman about the story of Adam and Eve and what it means to them? If so, you might hear that God took a rib from Adam and giving it to Eve, gave her the only good part of a man there ever was. I don't subscribe to this, but I do have a suspicion that...
Creative Writing > Humor Humor: A kiss: 1 of 5

If not for the Baseball game I had been watching, I would have heard the sigh she gave as her eyes lifted from the magazine. Asking about the sigh, I learned she had just finished reading a story about kissing. Hearing that, I now realized why I had been able to watch four uninterrupted innings. I was hoping the game would g...
Creative Writing > Short Stories Short stories: Grandparents: 12 of 33

It's Friday evening as I idly wait in the parking lot in front of my wife's building. She works for a Women's Imaging Center and the last place I want to be is in the waiting room full of women waiting for a mammogram. Not that I'm scared, I just don't like being a square peg in a round hole. I look at my watch and see that ...
Creative Writing > Humor Humor: Husbands: 25 of 68

In February 2007, after living a life of heartburn, heartburn, heartburn and planning for it to be a part of my life, I was scheduled for my first Endoscope. Nervous? Not me! I'm the typical guy who thinks he can take anything thrown at me. Welloutside of flying frying pans that is! Thank goodness, this was not a frying pan,...
Religion & Spirituality > Christian Doctrine & Issues Why churches need to get back to evangelism and away from political correctness: 6 of 10

Six miles into a warm morning bike ride, I look ahead of me eyeing the round glowing sun behind the thin low clouds, pushed along by a mild but warm Southerly breeze. Two days before Palm Sunday, the hide and seek game the Sun plays with me using the cloud cover begin my imagining of what it might have been like as Jesus beg...

Style & Beauty > Jewelry Buyer's guide to men's fashionable watches: 4 of 5

When it comes to jewelry, guys have it easy and then guys have it rough. We have most all the same parts as women, but when it comes to jewelry, there are only so many options for us. For many of us, that means a ring (usually just one), an ear-ring (used to be two, then one and now, we can get by with two again), a bracelet...
Creative Writing > Humor Humor: Dating: 44 of 49

Have you ever gotten to the point where you are just fed up with always being on a diet? A time where you just have to have what you are craving whether it is good for you or not! Well, that time came to me recently when I decided to plan the next location for me and my wife's weekly date night. What I yearned for was a burg...
Creative Writing > Reflections Reflections: Mother: 51 of 56

She was but a young 13 year old. The eldest of 10 children, 8 girls, 2 boys! Educated to the 8th grade level and forced to either marry or spend the rest of her teenage years in a foster home. Marriage was her choice. Nothing in her rearing of 13 years in a sleepy Oklahoma town could have prepared her for her new life in Pat...
Style & Beauty > Shoes Obsession with shoes: 11 of 12

When hearing my wife utter my name, my ears instinctively perk up like a jack rabbit looking for a fox in a field. We were having dinner with friends and as had become the norm, the gals talked girl talk and us guys talked tools and on occasion, we'd throw in a car question. As guys, our conversations never felt right discus...
