 I am writing as a fan of Rock & Roll's most underrated band The Byrds. This was a band who emerged from the dust of the beat poet scene from the late 1950's to the early 1960's. A few like Roger McGuinn, David Crosby, Barry McGuire, Gene Clark...

The invisible man returns. Sorry to be so long off the blog-waves...but as many Growing Bolders men and women in the world, I decided January 1 was the time to strike out on my own and leave the corporate world...and stake my own piece of the American...

In the past few years since menopause came knocking at my door, I have all of a sudden become attractive to men who wouldn't have given me the time of day 20 years ago. Now I spend time with them practically every day. As soon as I wake up, I need...

A few days before Thanksgiving, my husband Bob went to an out-of-town grocery store to buy a fresh turkey.  While he was gone, I rearranged things in the refrigerator to make room for the turkey he’d soon be bringing home.  As the...

Happy Friday, boys and girls.... Yes, I am going to write about the top 10 wines you've never heard, but that will follow this non commercial info-blurb about a buddy of mine... If you saw the previous blog on Umami ( the fifth taste), you may have...

Thirty years have passed and we have hardly noticed. Our life together has been filled with love, some hot water, some cold water, a wee bit of tepid water and a whole bunch of adventures. We were packing again for another adventure. Another opportunity...

Facebook, Twitter, and Interviews This week has been an extremely exciting one! I have met so many awesome people from Facebook and Twitter - that in itself is amazing for someone who is fairly new to this 'social networking' stuff. Facebook for me...

Have you read through the Thought Leaders column on the GB Home Page? The number of responses to our question was overwhelming. The answers are as diverse as the backgrounds of the people themselves. Be sure to read through them. But don’t forget about...

Can you believe all the celebrities who died in '07? I'm sure you saw the names. Every newspaper in the country ran a list back around new years of those who didn't make it out alive. Don't you hate that? It's enough to bring anybody down. Of course, it's...

Remember when there used to be gas stations at every intersection? Today, they’ve been replaced by pharmacies.  A government study showed more than 40 percent of Americans are on at least one prescription drug and the number continues to...

When my four sons were little, we all attended church and  had them dedicated to the Lord. While watching them grow, the Lord impressed upon me to let my kids go. Meaning, to give them to Him for protection and to lead them. I didn't want to be...

Cell Phones. How did we ever live without them? Isn’t it amazing how quickly they’ve become part of our lives?  It just doesn’t feel right to leave the house without one. Like a wristwatch, we instinctively reach for it as part...

For the first time in 109 years, 9 months and 5 days, Ruth 1898 is not on this earth. The oldest blogger in the world quietly slipped away. Her mind was crisp and clear to the very end. It’s not often you can say a 109 year old left this earth too...

Cancer does not "just happen".  Cancer along with many other common diseases is not just a chance occurrence.  There is a growing and unequivocal body of evidence supporting the concept that most common diseases are the result of complex...

We have been home for six weeks, so when I sat down at my desk this Saturday morning, I didn’t have a clue what to write but to write I must. We happily go on the road again on Wednesday and the April Blog must be uploaded to mcguinn.com.I could...

As we welcome in the New Year, lets hope 2008 will bring with it meaningful change in the way America deals with its aging population. Dylan said it first but it’s never been truer than now: “The times they are a-changin.” A social revolution is...

While completing my annual fire department physical exam the doctor once again highly recommended I have a colonoscopy performed. They have been scaring me since I turned fifty. I kept putting it off because the idea of have something like a garden hose...

Well, I just got back from a most wonderful 2 weeks away 'on tour' and I must say I am tired and still reeling from all the events! All 3 concerts were a real joy to do. The St. Paul United Church of Christ and...
