Two amazing actors at my side. Anthony W. Kalberg ( set designer for Twain) and Wayne D Stephens These two men have created so many memorable roles on stage. It always warms my heart to see them shine on stage. I’m so proud to call them my friends. (Originally posted January 22, 2024, by Rhonda […]

Greetings! It’s a blustery, snowy day, Christopher Robin! I thought I’d take a walk in the snow, but common sense prevailed. Don’t need a broke hip at my age. Stay warm and safe, y’all!

HEY! STEL-LAHHHH! The Walter Anderson Theater Project is proud to announce its production of Tennessee Williams’ classic play, A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE, which opens in March. This production, directed by Anthony Wayne Kalberg, promises to return the magic of theater to the Mary C. Cultural Center in Ocean Springs. Tickets will be available soon. WATP […]

Greetings! My dear friend Bonnie Cuevas asked her FB friends to list books they’d read and what influence they had had on their lives. I’m asking you the same thing. Here’s a partial list of books I’ve read over the past 5 years: The Great Gatsby. Brideshead Revisited. De Profundis. Great Expectations. Gulag. A Night […]

Good morning on this frigid day! Few things compare to the beauty of a Gothic-styled cathedral filled with a shimmering kaleidoscope of light from vast seas of stained glass. In a world filled with crassness, vulgarity, and a complete lack of manners and civility, this inspiring video gives one time to pause and be thankful […]

Greetings on this frosty, sunny morning! Mother always called camellias the Roses of Winter. I picked a few camellias and Encore azaleas and made a little arrangement for the kitchen table—I love its simple beauty. As you go through this week, look for the joy that comes from simple things and simple pleasures. Later Simple […]

Good morning on this cold Lord’s Day. I found these words most profound and truthful. Thank you Evelyn Dunn Weaver for posting this: “How does the thief on the cross fit into your theology? No baptism, no communion, no confirmation, no speaking in tongues, no mission trip, no volunteerism, and no church clothes. He couldn’t […]

Greetings! I know this has made the rounds before, but with all that’s popping ’round Washington City these days, it’s good to be reminded that our end (perhaps) was predicted long ago: About the time our original thirteen states adopted their new constitution in 1787, Alexander Tyler, a Scottish history professor at the University of […]

“You must remember this…a kiss is just a kiss…a sigh is just a sigh. The fundamental things apply, as time…goes…by.” Time is fleeting – who have you kissed today and said, “I love you.”? Husbands? Wives? Friends? Parents? Children? Tomorrow is promised to no one. Make haste and do it now. Big hug, y’all! (Originally […]

Good evening – Death is inevitable, as much a part of life as is birth. The elderly may long for it. Some find it a relief. But when Old Man Death comes calling on the young, he is at his cruelest, willfully causing pain and suffering. I learned today that a fellow co-worker, Amber Kuykendall, […]

Good morning on this sunshiny day after a night of thunder, lightning, and rain! Thank you, Jaimee Dorris, for your lovely interview this morning on WLOX concerning auditions for two upcoming Biloxi Little Theater shows, THE RED VELVET CAKE WAR and OLIVER. But Honey!!! 5:45 a.m. was a bit early for this old, retired boy. […]

Greetings! To all the ladies in my little FB coterie, have I got a Netflix movie for you: “The Guernsey Literary and Potato Society.” If you like a good, old-fashioned romance filled with lovely scenery, a beautiful cast, a somewhat mysterious script—and—a few nasty Nazi throw for good measure, this is your show! Oh! And […]

Greetings! “A foggy day in London Town, the whole darn world was upside down…” So was Gulfport town today! Maybe it wasn’t upside down, but you couldn’t cut the fog with a serrated knife. Wow! What a difference a week can make. Blow away the fog from 2024 and look forward to the sunshine of […]

It’s easy to lose hope in these uncertain times, but hope springs eternal. We should never forget that uncertainty and afflictions–physical or mental–can make or break us. But these can also lead to endurance, which leads to character, which leads to hope, and hope triumphs! Make this be a day in which you resolve not […]

Christmas Day was bleak, rainy, and raw. Despite this, my mother and I still took our traditional ride west to see the sights, a family tradition that goes back as far as I can remember. I’m looking out the window at another cloudy day, but inside is warm and cozy – so is life. I’m […]

Greetings! Robert Ingersoll – “The Great Agnostic” – may have said it first, but my sweet Granny from D’Lo – “The Great Christian” – said it best: “I’d rather have more good ol’ common sense than all the book learnin’ in the world.” Go, Granny!! The sad thing about it, though, is that these days, […]

Greetings! Today’s snap is my little Christmas tree, complete with Mardi Gras beads from Bellingrath Gardens. Who knew they threw Mardi Gras beads at the gardens during Christmas? Please indulge my curiosity. Post a snap of your Christmas tree—alas—before it goes back into storage or to the recycle station. I have such creative friends, so […]

Greetings on this lovely Christmas Eve! I got an early Christmas gift from my dear, dear friends. It was the pleasure of their company, their delicious food, and the joy of their smiling faces. Thank you, all! Big hug.

One last time with Mr. Scrooge at WLOX. Doing promos for a musical program on Christmas morning on the station. I’ve enjoyed the adventure. Mr. Delk! (Originally posted December 24, 2014)

Greetings! Help! I’m terrible with math. Is my addition correct? A garden hose + a nozzle + an open spigot + 23 degrees = A South Mississippi Ice Sculpture. What say ye? Later Frozen Christmas Gaters! (Originally published December 24, 2022)

Greetings! Good grashus! It’s a lovely day for a walk to the beach. Hope you can take one, as well. Big hug, y’all! 🥰

Good morning on this cold, cloudy day! Christmas means many things to many people. It can be a joyous time or one that is bittersweet. It can be a remembrance of loved ones who’ve gone Home. It can conjure the smells of hot spiced tea, a ham or turkey baking in the oven, or a […]

Dear Santa Clause, It’s only five days to Christmas, and I’m doing something I’ve not done in 62 years. I’m letting you know what I want for Christmas. It’s not a ’54 Cadillac convertible or a yacht. It’s not a platinum mine or decorations from Tiffany’s. It’s…well…I know you know because you know who’s been […]

My heart is crushed! Yesterday, December 19th, was my 180th birthday. Not one of my family or friends wished me a Happy Birthday! I’ve taken to my bed, prostrate with the vapors and grief. Oh! Woe! Is me! This might be the big one, Elizabeth! () Big hug, Y’all! (Originally posted December 19, 2023.)

Greetings! Mercy me! I am so blessed with dear friends! Thank you, Juliana, for being one of them. You’ll be happy to know that “Little Scrooge” has been given a place of honor beneath my vintage Christmas tree. I’ll add him to my thirty-six-year-old collection of Scrooge theatrical memorabilia others have given me. Merry Christmas […]

Greetings! What a fun brunch we had, that turned into lunch, and then almost an early supper. It takes a long time for old friends, who’ve not talked in a year or more, to play catch up. Thank you, my dear friend, for a lovely day. Big hug.

David Delk, Thank you for a fun day! I love being creative with creative friends. Big Christmas hug! (Originally posted December 13, 2020) The Newsroom of WLOX in 2020.

Greetings! One of my favorite delights is having a meal with a dear friend, regardless of the time of day. Rhonda and I had lunch today at Gulfport’s Chimneys Restaurant. Two and half hours drifted by, overflowing with delightful conversation. The air was filled with the laughter of those around us and the savory smells […]

Greetings! Mercy me, what a delightful lunch with the Birthday-Girl! Delicious food at Ocean Springs’ Evergreen Restaurant. A Lemon drop martini…or two. And a cup of kindness yet, for the days of auld lang syne. Big hug, y’all! (Originally posted December 13, 2023)

Thought for the day: While I have failed at this in the past, I will try to put future social media posts to the following test: 1. Is it truthful? 2. Is it harmful? 3. Is it divisive? 4. Will it bring others joy? 5. Does it have educational value? 6. Will it benefit others? […]

Good afternoon on this bleak, cloudy day! So, today, whose life will you make a wee bit less gloomy by smiling? Later, Smiling Gaters! (Originally posted December 12, 2019)

Greetings! Thank you Chuck Kelly Salon for the lovely flowers presented to mean ol’ Mr. Scrooge at last night’s performance. Y’all were part of an amazing audience that filled the cast with joy. Oh! What fun we had performing for y’all! Thank you again for the lovely flowers. Big hug. (Originally posted December 11, 2022)

Oh! How I loved this “gang” of kids. I especially loved it when they went to the haunted house. It was so funny! There’s something else that’s likable about this collection of movie shorts. In a segregated American, the Little Rascals went and did everything together. They ate together. They rode in cars and trucks […]

The Story of the Unhappy Nail. A cautionary tale penned by Anthony Wayne Kalberg (with apologies to the movie, “On The Waterfront.”) Once upon a time, the way all good stories begin, there was a nail. He did what nails do best – hold things together. Now this particular nail was unhappy doing what nails […]

Mornin’ on this rainy, bleak day. Why not brew a steaming hot cup of coffee or tea, curl up in an inviting chair before a cozy fire, and escape this old world by reading a good book? Don’t you just love creative people? This book tree is just too cute. Later Book-Loving Gaters! (Originally posted […]

Greetings! Did your ears burn between 11:00 and 2:15? If so, your name was mentioned during lunch at the Chimneys in Gulfport. What a terrific time was had, over terrific food, with terrific old friends solving your problems and the problems of the world. Thank you all for a lovely time! And one other thing, […]

Greetings! I had the privilege of seeing these two amazing ladies at the New Orleans Saenger Theater back in 1981. The set, the costumes, and the entire cast were impeccable. But Taylor and Stapleton were the jewels in the play’s crown. What a night it was for this ol’ country boy from Mississippi. Interesting factoid: […]

Good morning on this dreary day! What a delight to take a curtain call at yesterday’s matinee and see my dear cousins in the audience. Especially since they journeyed all the way from D’Lo! The D’Lo Little Theater thanks you and so do I. This is one of my favorite characters to portray on stage. […]

Greetings! Cold, dark, rainy, gloomy days can be a downer. Aspire to be the sunshine in someone’s life today. Big hug. (Originally posted December 4, 2023)

Well, I’m waiting for Santa Baby to grant all my Christmas wishes. As a child, I don’t remember Santa being this wide. Later Christmas Gaters! (Originally published December 1, 2021)

Greetings! So ol’ Scrooge, dearest Mo, and the effervescent Mr. Delk were minding our own business today at WLOX, and look who we ran into—CHAPEL HART! So proud of these young Mississippi ladies!! They were SOOOO sweet. Hugs and kisses all round. May their stardom reach the heavens and stay there for a long, long […]

Greetings! I have good news and bad news! The good news is this: I had a delightful visit with one of my dearest friends, Russell Potter. The bad news is this: We laughed, howled, and giggled so much playing catch-up that we didn’t get to solve the world’s problems. Perhaps next time. “Lit’ Henry” – […]

Greetings! I’m a bit under the weather today, so I’m staying close to home. Still, I want to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving! What does this holiday mean to you? For me, it’s a day of profound gratitude, a day when I pause to thank Father God in Heaven for my dear parents, family, and […]

The Morning Question: It’s a glorious day here along the Mississippi Gulfport Coast. Earlier this morning, warm sunshine, a brisk Northern wind, and tallow trees resplendent in Fall’s glorious colors greeted me as I rode along Hwy 90! The wind had swept the Gulf’s tawny-brown water far out to sea. That exposed the sand flats, […]

Here’s wishing my family and friends a Happy Thanksgiving! For those you cherish this Thanksgiving, tell them that you love them. One day, the circle will be broken. It’s just me now, my first Thanksgiving without my Mom and Dad. On this Thanksgiving at the dinner table, I’ll see y’alls empty chair. And though life […]

Lest we forget the REAL reason for this day! May each of you have a blessed Thanksgiving! Thanksgiving Proclamation Issued by President George Washington, at the request of Congress, on October 3, 1789: By the President of the United States of America, a Proclamation.Whereas it is the duty of all nations to acknowledge the providence […]

While driving along a lonely Mississippi backroad, I heard the chilly, early morning wind whisper, “Be still and know that I am God.” Big hug, y’all! (Originally published November 22, 2022)

What’s that you say? Could you repeat your foolish prognostications? I will what? Grow old? My face will age, lines and creases galore? The bags under my eyes will look like sloshing, encapsulated oysters? My hair will thin, and I’ll end up coloring it to make it look thicker? I’ll gain weight and no longer […]

The New Orleans Saenger Theater – one of the South’s most beautiful movie palaces. I’m so glad to see it’s on the mend after the great storm of ’05 flooded it, causing massive damage! Can’t wait to see the completed restoration. First saw the Saenger in 1965 where I enjoyed seeing “The Sound of Music.” […]

We took communion at church this morning. The observance was similar to all the other observances of communion, but today, as in times past, it was—for me—a special time. It was a time to come before the Holy God of the universe—the same God who created the universe and everything in it—and stand before Him […]

Greetings! For your perusal, I present my entry in a photo contest sponsored by the Bubba Bohunkus Shutterbug Institute of South Mississippi. The photo is titled: Icicles On Wilson Drive Via Nozzle And Rubber Hose. The first-place prize is a carefree weekend at the D’Lo Water Park! It includes a tent, sleeping bag, firewood, and […]

My friend, Mr. Shropshire, wrote the following. Alas, those who need to read this won’t – ears/minds closed. Later ‘Gaters. “For those who would deny the Christian origins of our country: you must ignore the writings and the public statements of the Founders to do so. For example, The original U.S. revolution produced 13 distinct […]

Thought for the day: One cathedral is man’s gift to God. The other cathedral is God’s gift to man. One shows our love for the Father. The other shows His love for us. Have you thanked Him today for His love? Will you share it today with someone who might need a word of encouragement, […]

Greetings! Succulent shrimp and corn bisque. Melt-in-your-mouth beef tenderloin. Luscious Italian green beans. Delicious Alice Spring Chicken. Grilled asparagus wrapped in tasty bacon. Buttery yeast rolls. Warm apple cake with caramel sauce. Hot, homemade pecan pie with ice cream. And vintage southern table wine…intoxicatingly sweet, sweet tea. Gulfport’s Chimneys Restaurant? Galatoire’s in New Orleans? Nope! […]

“My dears, in the midst of hate, I found there was, within me, an invincible love. In the midst of tears, I found there was, within me, an invincible smile. In the midst of chaos, I found there was, within me, an invincible calm. I realized, through it all, that…In the midst of winter, I […]

“Monday, August 6, 1888, was a bank holiday, and London was a carnival of wondrous things to do for as little as pennies if one could spare a few.” Thus begins one of my much-loved books about one of my favorite historical characters. I was 17 years old when I first checked out a book […]

Meanwhile, in other news! It appears Center Stage is resurrecting this old chestnut, along with the old nut who portrays mean ol’ Mr. Scrooge. Rumor has it that this production is a bit avant-garde, with five actors portraying all the other characters in Dickens’ classic story. They portray other things too, like… well…you’ll just have […]

Greetings! What a fun, cold, windy day it was to be in the city. It was quiet in the Quarter, but, alas, there was not seat one to be had at the Carousel Bar or the rooms around it. So, I took my place beside the great clock in the lobby of the Monteleone Hotel […]

Oh! By gosh! By golly! It’s not yet time for mistletoe and holly, but it is time for things that go bump in the night! What a fun time I had last night at Terror on the Coast. The cast and crew were out in force doing what they do best…scarring you to death! The […]

Greetings! It’s Opening Night for Center Stage’s DRACULA! Kudos to a great cast and crew, set designer, and director. Please make your reservations to see this show, which will entertain and send a chill or two down your spine. The guy playing Renfield is a bit out of control, but to quote Dracula, “Lunatics are […]

Greetings! If you are my age or older, I highly suggest you watch “The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel” if you haven’t already. I just did. And what a delight it was! It’s most uplifting, too. As Sonny says, “Everything will be all right in the end…if it’s not all right, then it’s not yet the […]

Greetings!       One of my most enjoyable pleasures is dining with friends. Thank you, Ned, for the conversation, most of which should follow us to the grave. Mum’s the word. 😉      I include Colton in the “mum’s department” as well. He was most intrigued with our remembrances of times past and Coastal luminaries who […]

Greetings! A fun time with two lovely ladies during brunch at Biloxi’s Toasted Yoke! When I count my blessings, I count y’all twice. Big hug, y’all.

Fall! It is one of my favorite times of the year, especially down South! After the blistering, oven of summer, the crisp cool mornings and lush cool nights are a welcomed relief! It is also a time filled with the languorous beauty of brilliant-colored leaves, a sky of crystal blue, and Monarch butterflies that flutter […]

Boo! Got the privilege of having an evening snack and drinks at Mary Mahoney’s with Blanche DuBose of Laurel Mississippi and Stella Kowalski of New Orleans, along with The Chet Landry of WLOX, who is my Assitant Director for WATP’s upcoming production of Tennessee Williams’ classic Southern Gothic play, “A Streetcar Named Desire.” A Fun.

Greetings! Forty-six years ago! Where oh where did the time go? To my young friends, enjoy the golden days of your youth. Time races by. And one day, like me, you’ll wonder where it went. But as the days, months, and years pass, keep the memories of those golden days safe in an old trunk […]

While cleaning out an old trunk in the attic, I found this. In faded ink, these words were written: “Wow! What a Bachelor’s Party. Never tell our wives what fun we had. Always remember watering the flowers, the fire-ant dance, and throwing up in the ice chest.” It appears that everyone signed the back of […]

Many years ago, I coined a phrase that I often remind myself of: It is the attention to detail that sets one above mediocrity. Oft times, when I’ve finished a project, I reflect on just that—the details. Should I have added this or that? Should I have asked for help? Should I have accepted that […]

Here’s the morning question: Where can I find a large, organic sweet potato? The only ones they have at Ye Ole Rouses are very, very small. The non-organic sweet potatoes are spayed with something to keep them from sprouting. I want to start growing a sweet potato vine to use as set dressing for WATP’s […]

Greetings! What a fun time we had Saturday afternoon watching “A Wonderful World” at the Saenger in New Orleans. The music, the costumes, the set, and the actors and actresses were breathtaking. When they all went to tap dancing, I thought I was going to jump out of my seat and hit the stage with […]

NOTE TO SELF: Slow down and concentrate when getting dressed! Remember to put your clothes on in this order: underwear, short pants (in summer), shirt, and shoes. That way, when you dash off to Rouses for a bit of grocery shopping, you won’t get out of your car and realize you’re bereft of your short […]

ATTENTION: A NEW REMEDY FOR BALDNESS AND THINNING HAIR. Create a poultice comprised of these ingredients in equal parts: alum, vinegar, and lemon juice. Vigorously rub said mixture into your scalp three times daily. No, it doesn’t regrow your hair. But in reducing the circumference of your head, this mixture allows what little bit of […]

THROWBACK THURSDAY—”Family Reunion” was a hilarious musical written by the amazingly talented Kitty and Neil Stallings! What a fun show it was. Thanks to the amazing talents of the director, David Delk, and his sterling cast and crew, it was an audience pleaser—sold-out performances every night. As Bob Hope sings, ” Thanks for the memory…” […]

Good morning! As this new week unfolds before you, take time to take a quiet walk down a quiet path, if not literally, then figuratively. Take time to thank the Good Master for being your anchor in a world gone mad. Hold onto him…he’s holding on to you. Later Clutching Gaters! (Originally published October 8, […]

Good morning! What a fun night was had by all at the premiere of EnterFear: The Next Wave at Biloxi’s Premiere Lux Theater.

The Coastal theater scene has been H-O-T HOT for several months now. First, it was Center Stages summer musical “Godspell.” Then it was “Xanadu,” produced by The Walter Anderson Theatre Project. Biloxi’s Little Theater’s production of “A Chorus Line” soon followed. And last, but certainly not least, was tonight’s production of “The Manchurian Candidate,” at […]

Good afternoon on this lovely Sunday afternoon – I love old cemeteries with their amazing tombstones. This touching, lifelike statue is located in the Crystal Springs Cemetery in Crystal Springs MS.

It’s a cold, blustery day, Christopher Robin.      The past and present swirl all around me. From ancient St. Giles Cathedral, where the Queen lay in state, to numerous woolen shops selling everything from cashmere scarves and men’s and women’s kilts to long johns in every color. (No, don’t ask. I didn’t purchase either of […]

As we bid farewell to Merry ole England, I can’t help but enjoy the journey through the picturesque countryside.     As the train whizzes through it, I’ve noticed one thing that both sides of the pond have in common: graffiti. Although most of it is gang-related, I can look past the gangs and enjoy the talent […]

Yikes! Called out in church this morning by my pastor, Dr. Jimmy Stewart. I was totally taken by surprise, to say the least. Someone asked me why I was not more “theatrical’? My reply? I’m not an improv actor. LOL! Sunday morning church…a good place to be. Some of y’all should try it sometime. (Big […]

There was some snafu with our tickets. As the train steamed out of the station, we discovered we were on the wrong train. The conductress was none too pleased when she radioed to the engineer to stop the train. She herded us out like cattle, almost pushing us and our luggage onto the platform. There […]

I’m sitting here in the gently rocking train carriage, watching the English countryside float by. In vast fields of new morn barley, wind turbines twirl. Flocks of blackbirds scratch the ground for their lunch, as fuzzy sheep meander in another field, also looking for their lunch. Overhead, cotton-candy clouds hold up the sky, the air […]
