BlogsAloud Episode 17: Paul Brads

BlogsAloud2Welcome to Episode 17 of the BlogsAloud podcast. Today’s episode was found on RedNeckLatte.com and was written by Paul Brads.

The post we are using was entitled Great Expectations. It was posted on June 8, 2011.

 

About Paul Brads

Paul Brads, aka Rednecklatte aka UP, is the father of two adult children who don’t ask for much, leave him alone, and live their own successful lives. He’s very proud of that.

Married for nearly 34 years – some of them happy -to the same woman, he lives in Lawrenceville, GA.

A history nut from the early age of 6, Paul loves to read history, biography, and novels – all kinds!

A frustrated writer and stand UP comedian, Paul gets his funny out via his website/blog Redneck Latte Ravings.

He raves occasionally about timely and newsworthy topics, his collections of books, antiques, and depression glass, does a few helpful posts, does a few fashion posts for men and women, and searches for beauty and joy and happiness – sometimes unsuccessfully – on a daily basis, but mostly he just says on paper what’s in his head. Which can be dangerous!

Proud of the fact that he’s a 12th generation Virginian, and his own fourth cousin, Paul works hard to keep his southern roots alive, keep it real, and keep it going. – Author Provided
