The other day my girlfriend bought me something that was so simple yet so thoughtful and it also brought back a ton of memories from my childhood. She bought me some of those real small cherry pies in a little package but they weren't just any cherry pies. They were made by a company called Towne House. When I was growing up they were my favorite.
These pies could only be found at one store in town at that was at the Five Points General Store in Dana, NC. It was one of the old fashioned general stores in the community that men gathered at to talk and talk about manly stuff and to escape from the women folk. It was like Wally's Filling Station on The Andy Griffith Show. Pops would take me there, we would hang out around the wood stove in the winter for a couple of hours, I would get an RC Cola and a cherry pie, and that was as good as it got.
I had never told my girlfriend any of these stories and that was what made her gesture so nice. It was something thoughtful and brought back so many fond memories of my childhood but more importantly, it brought back great memories of my father.

A Good Girl
This blog is dedicated to a younger friend of mine whose boyfriend had just broken up with her. My advice was asked for (although I did not know I was on speaker phone) and after listening to the situation, I knew her boyfriend (now ex-boyfriend) had something going on the side.
I made sure the "c" they were talking about was for "commitment" instead of "condom." I also made sure I pointed out that I had seen a set of 36 DDD's on a stripper the night before so I was still on a "Big Boob High." I believe my advice was still solid.
I told her I thought he had something on the side and as a few days went by, I believe I was right. I told her to leave her ex in the rear view mirror. It know how hard that is from personal experience and easier said than done but she is a sweet, beautiful girl and I know guys will be tearing the front door off the hinges of her house to ask her out.
Her ex's new fling dumped him after a few days and all he had left was his right hand. The moral of this story is that when you have a good girl in front of you it is the best idea to hang on to her, all that glitters ain't gold (even the stripper wearing sequins), and a man should always have plenty of singles in his wallet when the world's most perfect boobs appear in front of him.
