Seasoned, aged to perplexion
Better to be a force of age than forced by age.
If wishes were horses, then bloggers would ride. Well, time to saddle up.
Several days ago, LordBeariOfBow sneaked out a notice on his son’s iPhone that he was stuffed in a hospital due to “ticker trouble” (and did not continue with a joke that he was ticketing for littering or providing far too much entertainment in blog posts, so we know this is real).
If you haven’t discovered this Australian’s pithy, snarky, opinionated, hilarious blog, you have been deprived.
He’s had adventures that belong in Hollywood – or would be there if laughing at life and people’s foibles were still in style. People used to know how and when to laugh to laugh “with” not “at” – not so rigid and hyper-sensitive.
True sitcom material with filled with characters that will keep you rolling in the aisle. Was the airline industry ever really like that? (Yes, it was). Who knew insurance could be so funny…and don’t forget the taxi driving jobs or the bar tending.
But it’s no laughing matter that he’s MIA. There’s health issues just tolerated and lived with.
Look, you’ve got a few minutes – and a minuscule of curiosity by now, so how about clicking over to his blog and leaving a comment?
No need the “thoughts and prayers” thing as he’s quite upfront about his beliefs or non beliefs. But as a fellow blogger, a word or two of encouragement – or better, a joke for smiles – or a even better, respond to his post’s tale or the blog.
He’s quite a writer and humorist…pretty cool human being, too.
Not sure if he’s got access to computers, but his email (lordbeariofbow@hotmail.com.) is also on his blog at the top if you’d rather.
Appreciate the back up…you’d wish people would do it for you, right?
Paying it forward.
Please.

And for your added entertainment: (Hope you get a grin, Lordbear – and get weller sooner).
A nifty 50…car that is – and a cool son’s efforts to please his dad on his 99 birthday…The old guy still has his drivers’ license. Great commentary about family, and those who were dads after WW II – set aside so much they wanted to take care of their families – and how neighborhoods were different then. (PS. Ya’ did good with that kid, Dad)

I cried a little for the video with the 50s car.. that was such a sweet idea…. although I must confess the car looked a little like christine, even if it is not red..

He wanted a two door crown vic, but could only afford/justify a family car..,,.but it got hot rodded (back when cars could be worked on…you gotta love the “Arkansas cotter pin” – mother of invention.)
Thanks for being driven to comment (and yes, a bit Christine-ish…in try to appear benign colors)
