Music and Finding My Special Talent

August 16, 2019 by Ron Collins, posted in Humor, Memoir, Muses

I love music. I always have. The first thing I do in the mornings while eating breakfast is ask Alexa to play music that fits my mood.

I was blessed with a mom that could cook. It did not matter if she was cooking her trademark biscuits, fried chicken or making Italian cream cake, that lady could cook. And, by the way, I could eat. When I entered first grade, I loved everything about school except the lunchroom. I thought the food … Continue reading Lunchroom Ladies

My Secret Password

When I was a young buck, a password was something only secret agents used. I remember watching Get Smart and James Bond. They always used secret passwords to get passage to the Golden Ticket. To me, this was the coolest thing ever. I never dreamed I might soon live in a world where passwords dominated my … Continue reading My Secret Password
