WELCOME to the AIRTIGHT GARAGE!!!

I live a simple life, with plenty of room for adventure, education, reflection, togetherness, and maybe even some "growing up." I may go weeks without posting/publishing anything, then within the space of only 3 or 4 DAYS, end up writing my newest "Magnum Opus." Nothing fancy, I'll confess, but I have a pretty big imagination, and a habit of telling some stories ( they may not make sense, but they're usually NOT BORING, thankfully ). So I'll pop some comments out here& there, post a BLOG when I'm really with it, and when I can get the LAZY streak out of me, I might even post some of the things I've written over the years. No matter what you see here, rest assured I'll always be myself. Once again, WELCOME TO THE AIRTIGHT GARAGE!!!
p.s. Anyone who can figure out where I got that name??? Winner gets a KEWPIE DOLL!!!

Those of you who have even the SLIGHTEST interest in national news may have heard by now that the good ol'
REVEREND AL SHARPTON has gotten wind of the possibility that he's descended from a SLAVE FAMILY that was once the property of
the late SENATOR STROM THURMOND, who, if you follow these sorts of characters, was quite the RACIST, BIGGOTED BASTARD for about 99 and 1/2 of the 100 years of life he lived...
Have to admit, that in my time living in NEW YORK, The ol' reverend proved himself... read more
