Schley Cox My father taught me how to tell a story, a good one.

I am a story teller. It is an art I learned from my late father. A magician in the late 30’s and early 40’s, he was part of what became known as the “tall grass magicians”, so named because they worked in the United States Midwest. He had a circuit through Kentucky, Indiana and Illinois that took him most of two years to complete. Deep in his heart he was a shy man but when he walked onto a stage in his tails and top hat he became the master showman. He held his audience enthralled as they waite… Continue

Danny Remembered joy

Remembered Joy Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free! I follow the plan God laid for me. I saw His face, I heard His call, I took His hand and left it all... I could not stay another day, To love, to laugh, to work or play; Tasks left undone must stay that way. And if my parting has left a void, Then fill it with remembered joy. A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss... Ah yes, these things I, too, shall miss. My life's been full, I've savoured much: Good times, good friends, a loved-one's touch.… Continue

Miss O Connor Pourquoi Halloween ?

Comme la plupart de nos célébrations, Halloween est une fête dont les origines sont lointaines. Remontant avant le début de notre ère à la fête celtique de Samain, elle s’est enrichie au cours des siècles de croyances provenant de la Rome antique, de l’Europe du Nord et d’Irlande. Au XIXe, sous l’influence des Irlandais, la fête a été importée aux Etats-Unis où celle-ci est devenue très populaire. Aujourd’hui, chargée de traditions, elle revient en Europe. Le point commun à toutes ces croyan… Continue

COLLEEN MUELKER An Irishman's Philosophy

In life, there are only two things to worry about— Either you are well or you are sick. If you are well, there is nothing to worry about, But if you are sick, there are only two things to worry about— Either you will get well or you will die. If you get well, there is nothing to worry about, But if you die, there are only two things to worry about— Either you will go to heaven or hell. If you go to heaven, there is nothing to worry about. And if you go to hell, you’ll be so busy shaking hands wi… Continue

Cristina McGough U2 Concert Review

We had a patial view of the band , we were sitting in section 407 behind on the right hand side of the stage. Part of U2s set was blocking are view. We could see a bit better with binoculars. However, they rarely worked the back half of the stage so we mosty saw their backs. Muse was alright for a opening act. Overall I enjoyed the show though I wish they had played more music and talked less. They played a pretty good mix of old & new songs. I mostly went to hear their old songs. Their new… Continue

Dirk Griffin Back from Germany and Crazy things

Well, I actually got back from Germany in Late August and hit the ground running. I'm performing as "Uncle Billy" in the Annual "It's a Wonderful Life" production this Winter at French Lick, Indiana. I'm also working their "Ghost Train" show during October. I need to post some Germany pictures here in a scrapbook as soon as I get a few minutes. Between the theatre work, the menial job, and trying to start a business I'm obviously in "manic" mode. I am the king of too much to do for some reason.… Continue
