When two DeForest Kelley guests were here a couple of weeks ago, I dragged out my Kelley archives to share with them. Among my treasures are four 4″ three-ring binders, crammed full of reports of phone calls I wrote down after every call from (or to) Carolyn and De. Calls from the Kelley’s far…

Rod Serling’s Daughter Tells All–and It’s All Good
Just finished reading Anne Serling’s book about her dad, Rod Serling (The Twilight Zone). What an engaging read. I enjoyed it very much. Now I want to watch The Twilight Zone episodes again that he wrote (95 of them in all, out of some 150 total episodes). They’re available on Amazon Prime, so I’m in …
Crow Gives the Bum’s Rush to Coyote
There are times when having the ability to capture images on video is worth its weight in gold. Alas, I can only tell you in pale, puny words about what happened yesterday in my back yard: a crow gave the bum’s rush to a magnificent-looking coyote. (Which is a good thing. Read on!) I…
Hosted Two DeForest Kelley Fans for Four Days

Just Read “Trust Me, I’m Lying”
I never entered the world of politics to run for office because I didn’t want to be broad-brushed as corrupt, as so many representatives are believed to be (and as far too many are)… But now I find myself in another sea of corruption, it seems… I got into blogging to connect with…
Huge Endorsement from a High Profile Personality
“Kristine M. Smith offers a straightforward memoir that many of us raised in a generation that didn’t understand—didn’t KNOW—about ‘such things’ what we have been looking for: A heartfelt story that answers questions we were afraid to ask and turns tolerance to acceptance and compassion—for ourselves or others. ~ Carolyn Howard-Johnson, winner of her community’s…
