Surprising, to say the least

So I’m sitting at my desk, playing solitary on the computer & Words with Friends on my phone. You try to get a word from 1 vowel & 6 consonants. Most of which are oddball. Not happening. But my notification goes off, to let me know I have a new email. I read it. It’s [...]

A miracle

I have a BlackBerry Bold 9700. I’ve had this for almost 2 years, with no trouble out of it. Until recently, that is. I have pictures on my phone, along with music. The music I’m not concerned about, since I downloaded it from my computer. The pictures however, weren’t. When I got a message over [...

Here’s how to cut the budget

1. Get all the slackers with ADHD, ADD, FMS & others off Social Security & Medicare/Medicaid. They can work. They just don’t want to. 2. Cut the lifelong benefits for members of the House & Senate. Just because they serve a few terms, shouldn’t entitle them to everything the general public can’t hav

Now I’ve been to Las Vegas

And it was an eye-opener. Never in my life have I seen anything like it. 4 days there feels like 10 here. New York New York wasn’t as impressive for me as they thought it was. Caesar’s Palace was impressive. The Mirage was ok. Luxor, with the exception of how it was built, not so hot. [...]

I’ve lost my mind

I hate flying. It terrifies me. Not only is it the abject fear of heights, but of falling too. Then being confined in a small space with loud (should be read as kids) people. But on the 20th of this month, Chris & I are flying to Las Vegas. I knew Jan & Chris (friends [...]

Yep, it’s Monday

I get calls. First is from area code 270. From a law office looking for an address to send paperwork to, so a work invoice can be gone over. So I give her the address when she states: “That’s in Colorado!” Being curious, I start asking questions. It’s about a legal case between a HOA [...]

Better late than never

“BRAUNAU, Austria— Adolf Hitler is now formally persona non grata in the town of his birth. The town council in the Austrian village of Braunau has unanimously decided to withdraw honorary citizenship from the community’s most infamous son, 78 years after the Nazi dictator was given the title. Hitle

He’s irritated now

Chris is on a job where he’s having to wait for an insurance adjuster to show up, so he calls me. He’s dealing with a fiberglass soaker tub with dimensions of 41″ by 71″. A dropped die-cast 1/24 scale car is what broke the tub. What he’s just found out is the idiot plumber who originally set [...]

Been there, done that

About a year ago, or maybe a little longer, Chris & I both got BlackBerry phones. In my case, it was the first phone I’d had that I stood a chance of learning to send text messages with. In Chris’ case, he found out there was such a thing as a text message. One day, [...]

People are crazy

As I’m sitting here, listening to the music I like (and can only listen to when Chris isn’t here because of the grief he causes about it) I was scanning the latest headlines. Out of sheer curiosity I clicked the following headline: http://fieldnotes.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2011/06/17/6880862-violence-er
