The Bear...

Hello everyone. I just finished reading "The Bear Went Over The Mountain" by William Kotzwinkle. He also wrote E.T. : The Extraterrestrial, among other things. The bear is a really good book. I was surprised by it. I bought it when it was first published in 1996. I can't believe that it sat all this time on my book shelves and I never picked it up before now. I recommend it highly. It is about a bear who finds a briefcase with a manuscript in it. i don't want to "say" too much about it, it might ruin it for someone who decides to try it out.

Not much else going on here. Heat and thanking god for inspiring someone to invent air conditioning.

Just finished making some meatballs for a spaghetti dinner tonight. I love cooking and someday hope to have my own bar and grill to serve up some of my specialties. I started cooking in a restaurant when I was 14. The chef / my teacher was a really cool dude who looked like Mr. Magoo, I mean exactly like Mr. Magoo. He was nearsighted and even had glasses like him too. He was a great teacher and friend who died when I was 15. The first times I ever ate any kind of seafood was then. I grew up poor Arkansas trailer trash (wow a living, breathing Arkansas cliché), boy I sure turned my life around since then.

Anyway,  here I sit. Maybe I'll play some COD4 or watch a movie. By the way, the new Harold and Kumar was pretty hilarious in some parts. Have a nice day everyone.
