About Me
Welcome to my blog page and after a little effort on my part I hope you enjoy what you find here. I tend to comment about those things that affect my life, which can run the spectrum from cars to cats, work to vacations and other observations in between.
Some of the things you will read are dated since I may have written them some time ago but I thought this would be the place to share those things. My first passion is automobiles (right after my wife of course) so be it movies, car shows or life in general, expect the automotive reference on more than one occasion. You will often see the term “car guy” which I prefer to “gearhead” but either is accurate. From playing with Hot Wheels and Matchbox toys in my youth to the two cars I have now, I can truly attest to the old saying about “men and boys and the price of their toys”.
I am also a resident Batman nut and I gravitate towards the darker, brooding, equal opportunity butt-kicker rather than the campy portrayal of the old television series. I would also be a big fat liar if I didn’t admit that driving the Batmobile would be a dream come true. Yet there is so much more to experience on life’s highway, so climb in and ride for a while and remember, life is all about the journey, not the destination.
I am preparing to make my first attempt at publishing a short story very soon. I hope to follow up on that in the near future with a book I have underway. I will be presenting these works under the pen name T. August Green, and hopefully more to follow in the years to come. If and when any of this becomes a reality, I will be sure to post about it here…where it all began.
I just can’t get over your car guy story, I’ve been thinking about it all night! I have a new hemi site called Hemi Hot Rods. It’s all about the hemi and the Hemi guy. Would you be interested in righting some stories for us? About hot rods, the history, or what ever you like. I just like the way you put together a story.
Thanks Patrick
I have enjoyed reading some of your writings, and it reminds me so much of your Daddy and my husband, Marshall. They were blessed to never get caught on some driving they did on the open highway. They both were lovers of cars, motorcycles and FAST Driving. They both are in a better place now, but the Memories will never fade away.
Love in Christ, Aunt Dot
