Stating the obvious, a devoted UNC fan, hence the choice of title. You will early on notice my fondness for political topics, generally from a conservative point of view. I enjoy mixing in humor from time to time. As the mood may strike, oddball topics will find a home as well. Personal information I will limit a bit but it will leak out from time to time. I have been happily married for a while with 2 children and 2 grans. Needless to say, my wife does not always approve of my musings but she does tolerate them, even to the point of being known as Mrs THT. Suffice to say that I am currently a resident of the small northeastern North Carolina town of Elizabeth City but have lived in a number of other places including a few other small North Carolina towns and one large-kinda- city in Georgia. Hint, it is not Atlanta. Hopefully, this will help me to avoid being provincial.
Politics and sports are high on my agenda and you will find liberal doses of humor as mentioned before and a measure of irony from time to time. I am flattered by comments, whether or not they agree with me. I firmly believe that one should always be open to others’ point of view. Disagreement should never preclude discussion.
In the interest of nothing in particular, here are a few fast facts.
Favorite authors include Robert Parker, Joel Rosenberg, Daniel Silva, usually James Patterson , Janet Evanovich, Jan Karon and from time to time Stuart Woods and Catherine Coulter.
Musical tastes are all over the map. I listen somewhat regularly to Caedmon’s Call, the Carpenters, the Beach Boys, the Newsboys ,Darlene Zschech and Hillsong and the Seekers. Loyalty, even to music ,is a prized commodity.
I even have cartoon favs. They would be George of the Jungle( original version), the Penguins, Roadrunner and Coyote and from time to time Courage the Cowardly Dog. What happened to the days of Rocky and Bullwinkle and friends?
Oh yes, dogs are way better than cats!!
One more thought, all conservatives are not evil, clownish loons no mater what you may read elsewhere.

Glad to have you stop by. Visit often and comment as you wish even when you may not agree.
Shalom!!

Dear THT –
Thanks so much for your kind comment re my 9/11 post. However, I am afraid I am new at this blog thing (yours is my first comment and I was SO tickled) and have accidentally deleted it. I would be ever so grateful if you could re-send it, and I promise not to goof it up this time!
In the meantime, I have been taking a look at your writings (“ramblings” as I call my own drivel) and enjoying them quite well, particularly your 9/11 entry, for which I will be leaving a comment.
Thanks again, and sorry for the bother!
Heather
