Complaining, I'm told, is good to help keep stress down, though I doubt it...;-)

Yeah, for jobs times one thousand, I have applied & applied, Few have returned even a call, Have gone through spring, summer, now fall, Winter is now here, this is definitely not a ball… If I owned a van, I had a call from a man, A route throughout the state, But the wrong vehicle I own, just great… I can’t just give it up, I have to get money to feed my pup, I can survive on very little, Even with few teeth, I could live on peanut brittle… © ed ~ 12/3/08

We hear you loud and clear, praying for a win-full to put air in your tires so you can travel a little longer over the life's road bumps, bro.

I don't know about complaining, but I think writing often helps relieve stress. Keep writin, and keep lookin, Bro, and we'll all be cheering for you.

Sorry, I ain't got no peanut brittle. Will you settle for some Cracker Jacks?

I will be praying that your job search is successful. Give Woofie a big hug for me.

Always your friend, Scott

My many years with Authors Den will come to a close in May, thank you to all that has reviewed of me, I hope you all continue on to your own end...

Most likely my END or maybe NOT!

Yep, it''s that time of the year again, break out the credit card...

Merry Christmas...

We all got em''...

The Saggy, Baggy Boobs Blues,

Growing up alone is not so bad...

Alone in life...

Memories I am Unable to Forget...

To wish for death...

I find it interesting that only in the wee hours of the morning is when I find myself able to write anymore... <br>

Rain, thunder & lightning, oh my...

Hey, I think I might have found a little humor...?

...NEAT...
