A life long Mountain Brook resident refers to it as “The Little Kingdom” but it’s also been called “The Tiny Kingdom”. I’d like to go through the community and do a photo essay – many of the houses do look like little castles. Kind of sad though – no garages. Even castles had stables for the horses.

The Brookies have the postage stamp size lots with these million dollar homes on them. If the house isn’t big enough the only way they can go is up.

Obviously, I wouldn’t fit in with the Brookie soccer moms. I have nothing in common with them and I sure wouldn’t want to hang out with the potty-mouthed woman who spoke at the blogging seminar.

Sounds like I need to give Megan some tips on how to communicate with her father.

Attend a class on ESP – she’ll need to sharpen her telepathic communication skills because her father expects you to read his mind.

After receiving “instructions”, repeatedly ask “And then?” (ala the scene at the Chinese drive-in from the movie Dude, Where’s My Car?

Find a Vulcan – ask him or her to do a mindmeld to extract all the information.

As I find more tips I’ll add them.
