These are random musings of my life journey, the people, animals, places, and events which have woven, and continue to weave, a tapestry that is me. We all know there is no real destination, only the ongoing experiences which blend together, creating the trail. Each step gives a glimpse of what is to come, without allowing me to see the end result. It is exciting. I have a home base that is mine, that gives me a place to rest. This is it. This is where my heart is, no matter where I journey...................

The World is One Man Short Today

A Great Loss
Paul Newman
1925 - 2008


If all the world lived as he did, treated others as well, putting people ahead of himself,
we wouldn't have many problems.






Quel homme. Thank you, Paul, for brightening our lives.

  1. Such a total class act. The world needs more people like him. I'm glad that he spent his last few years with his family.

  2. Very true, Lnynilu. I wish more men were as classy as he was... He was/is a good role model...

  3. Isn't it sad that men like him don't get the *positive attention* in the press that the Mel Gibsons and Ryan Oneals and OJ SImpsons do with their poor judgment and behavior?

  7. My mom was in love with him. I thought he was sexy. He appealed to both generations.

  8. MJ, he had a universal appeal, and part of it was definitely sex appeal. The neat thing is that he didn't really do sexy roles, he just *was*.
