Tor's Place

by David McClain

Rated: 18+ · Book · Opinion · #1461602

They say:"Third time's a charm". We shall see. Welcome to my third blog on WDC,

** Images For Use By Upgraded+ Only **

The above picture has graced both my other blogs and of course I had to have it here...Me and my sweetie.

This is my third blog here on WDC. This is, in effect, my house. So please come on in and make yourself at home. Please don't mind the mess because this part is still under construction and I will be adding stuff in the next few weeks until I get it the way I want it.

About the Title: "Tor's House"....Well in a way, this is what a blog is to many of us. It is our way of inviting the world into our personal space. Just like in real life, I will endeavor to be the best host to my guests that I can be, but you must understand...in my house I tend to speak my mind. I apologize in advance for any who may feel uncomfortable.

What will you find here? Oh that's easy....Humor, strong opinion, and even some philosophical musings....or what passes for that with a dumb ole country boy.

So I welcome everyone...come in and let's sit and chew the fat awhile. Let's talk about stuff and see if we can figure out the answers to the world's problems....or what to make for lunch...whichever.

The end of an era...

Sad to see you go, but glad to have kept up with you via OS.

'A modest following' is a bit of an understatement. Those days of interactives, mad blogging friends and comments were great fun and sadly missed. By me at least. But change is inevitable...sigh.

I hope you've managed to store your blogs somewhere. It would be such a shame to lose all your wonderful entries.

I'm so sad to see you go...sniffle.

It's a sad day for WDC, David. For anyone who reads this and isn't familiar with Tor, well, you should make his acquaintance. He's the real deal and one of the finest people I've ever had the pleasure of knowing.Treat yourself and head on over to Opensalon.com and look for Torman - I promise you won't be disappointed.

Love ya, David!

Wow I'm late but I'm so glad to hear it and I look forward to seeing you more often again (since I rarely get over "there" as you know). Maybe I'll get my blog moving again before your return so I still deserve this little plug.

Good luck to you, Tor.

Hopefully your passion for writing will bring you here more often again, and you can share with us your journey.

Looking forward to reading your work.

Tor? Well, who the heck is he then?

Seriously, as if any of your faithful fans here could ever forget you or that wonderful era when Blogville was in its prime. But, life is ever changing and we learn to take the good with the bad.

Walmart will miss you I'm sure but I know the feeling won't be mutual. So pleased you'll be able to pursue your writing dreams at last and I'll be here to cheer you on whenever I can.

And what is OS?

Good to see you here! I'm also looking to come back to my roots here...as life as we knew it changes...both good and bad. Like you though I say this is a place to feel safe, and share the stories of our lives. Welcome back...

And if I might suggest a new "must read" blogger on your hit list...L.L. Zern

. She's fabulous. Reminds me of Party in a lot of ways. She blogs faithfully once a week. I suggest if you have the time, go to the beginning of her blog and work your way forward. She's hysterical.
