Biscuits and Gravy: Chasing Fears

November 23, 2012

Brian Mason

Back when I was younger, I really had two things that jumped out in regards to the person that I was. First was that I had about as much sense as any other warm blooded Southern youngin’, that is to say I had as much sense as a rabid badger in heat during a...

Biscuits and Gravy: Rock-A-By

It has been one of those long stories in my life when it comes to the topic of sleep. Sure, for many it’s easy but for me it has always been a curse. Even when the doctor sent me on my way at the hospital. Momma took me home, weary and ready for some...

Ever run into the circumstances that have left no doubt to the imagination as to the position someone was makin’ a point of or the way things were goin’? No cloud of illusion around, but just very clear cut and to the point is what I’m talkin’ about folks. None of these half truths...

By
Brian Mason

No doubt at some point in our lives we’ve all run across that moment where two things go together about as good as a brick in a crystal factory. Sure, it seems harmless and all, but given the right criteria and things get a little interesting. Life of course being full of such sundry...

Biscuits and Gravy: Superbowl Sunday

October 12, 2012
By
Brian Mason

In Canada, hockey is king and in England soccer. Yes, yes, I know you Brits just cringed in disdain, but as a redneck Souherner, I laugh and carry on. Besides, for any that come for me, I’ll simply hang a lantern in the church tower… we all know how well that turned out the...

Biscuits and Gravy: For the Love of Honor

Brian Mason

Ever run into those people in the world who just have that air about them of dignity and respect? I’m not talkin’ nobility or politicians, God help us, but those simple people at the grocery store or gas station on the corner. After all, it doesn’t take a whirlwind in a jar all gussied...

Ever watch the game show ‘The Price is Right’? Cheesy colors and shapes reminiscent of a psychedelic 1970s TV show swing back or acid trip adorn the walls and props as contestants battle to win prizes by estimating the right price for a certain good.

No doubt you’ve run across the Arnold films of the day with the crazed psychopathic machines bent on world domination. Well, back in my childhood days, those movies were quite the storm of inspiration… at least the first one was… but that’s another topic altogether. Everyone quoted or made reference to it and I...

Biscuits and Gravy: Keep Pushing

September 14, 2012
By
Brian Mason

We’ve all come across those moments or journeys in life that have defined the nature of our own existance. Those moments where we don’t know where to turn, because life itself seems to have turned against us, bent on our destruction. It almost seems to us that there is no reason to keep pushing,...

Biscuits and Gravy: “Perseverance”

September 7, 2012
By
Brian Mason

Majestic and awe inspiring were words that came to mind the other day, striking the forefront to my mind, as I stood atop a darkened rooftop of the hospital. Alone and cold, I gazed about me in the cool crisp air, as the literal meaning of majesty danced about me. No, I wasn’t dreaming...
