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.

Hello Tuesday My Dudes

It’s Tuesday and it’s time for the week to get fully going. Let’s hope it’s going to be good. Peace out good people, let’s do whatever this is.

Remembering Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. #MLK

I refuse to accept the view that mankind is so tragically bound to the starless midnight of racism and war that the bright daybreak of peace and brotherhood can never become a reality… I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word.

A Hybrid

In my next life, I would like to be a vampire/wizard hybrid. A weirdo can dream, eh?

Rumor Has It Snow Is Coming #Chattanooga

Snow is in the forecast today here in the Chattanooga area. Right now it’s just raining big drops from the sky. The temperature is going to have to get a little colder for that. Now it’s just a wait and see thing.

The Friendship Rules Have Changed

The rules of friendship have changed. Online friends are just as important as “in person” friendships. There are people I have encountered over the years who have become good friends and we may never meet face-to-face. But those long distance friendships are important.

This crazy world has revealed that we need people in our lives who we can identify with and to make connections. Social networking has made making friends easier. Of course cat fishing and other traps are an unfortunate reality. Using your best judgement is advisable.

Long time local friendships matter and sometimes those become online relationships.

I am grateful to have all these wacky people in my life and I hope I am worthy of your friendships.

Thank you for being a friend.
