All posts by Tony Burgess

Hi there, my name is Tony Burgess (my friends call me T-Bird) from Chattanooga, Tennessee, USA. I am a believer, bleeding heart, idealist, and blogger. I'm married to Laura the Soup Diva and a dog dad to Frankie, Cody, and Mikey. Daily I work for a blood bank recruiting donors. My blog is where I chronicle and curate the sacred, serious, and silly things in my life. I am a member of The Episcopal Church. Thank you for connecting with me. Grace, peace, and love!

Hey White Middle-aged Man…

I’m a white middle-aged male and that is a recipe for bring conservative in my neck of the woods. Well I am more moderate to liberal on almost every issue. I am my own person who is not afraid to think for myself and to be divergent when I want. To me understanding the world as it is and wanting the best for everyone is more important than any selfish motives. I hope I made sense there.

Wednesday, All Day Long

It’s all geek mode today my friends. Let’s do this or that if you are so inclined. Have a great day. Grace and peace.

Things like this are affirmation that my blog is doing OK. It’s a great feeling. I am humbled.

A new technique for cooking pasta. Prep it in a shallow pan of water. It will come to a boil faster, cook quicker. Thanks Food Network for the tip.

You’ve Got A Friend In Me

When you are friends with me know that you will have a complete dork in your life. I am a unapologetic nerd/geek who in life seems to be divergent and idealistic. You will get someone who is encouraging and optimistic to a fault. I am going to be myself, no matter what. Sometimes I won’t always agree with you but I won’t make that the central issue of the friendship. You might be cooler than me but that is OK. This is what you get with me.
