Hey, don't be dissing Des Moines! I was born there and lived there until I was 12. Not a bad place to grow up.

OK, let the jokes begin!


No jokes but.....

I can't help but notice the title used to say "Des Mones" and I was thinking he did that on purpose.

Actually, we thought Des Moines was very nice. A far cry, however, from the wild and wooly West where you now find yourself!

Walter...what a disappointment, here I was trying to give you credit for your sly & usually quick wit.

Seriously I'm glad y'all had a good time. How was the people watching? After all, I know you did your share of that!

It's hard sometimes to live up to the expectations of your fans. The pressure is so great sometimes that, well, sometimes I just wanna go back to the simpler times when I was just an everyday Joe. No, not Joe. Maybe a Craig. No, not that either. Anyway, sometimes I just wanna be myself, not some "Internet Idol" like I have become. But I should not burden you with my problems. No, that is not the thing to do. I shall, instead, strive to do better in the future, not only for you, but for all that take the time to read and ponder my words, stories and essays.

So, what were you saying again???

Gotta leave now, 4:00am comes awfully early!

DOTL Daddy, you live in Union and your dissing Des Moines? Really???

Why, Des Moines has more bright lights than Union, Washington, and St. Clair put together. Throw in Krakow, though, and it just might be a toss-up.

You forgot Beaufort. If you include Beaufort, you can plainly see the bright lights of our little patch of paradise from the international apace station!
