Luddites Unite!

Mary Kate and Ashely have a new clothing line.. No, it is not ‘Auschwitz Revisited’ nor is it the ‘Karen Carpenter Story Redux’.

No, they have come out with a Plus size line of clothing. That’s right, the sisters who made visible rib bones popular again are bringing you cloths for the more [...]

We got a dog.

A puppy to be exact. Her name is Sweet Pea. She’s mostly a Leopard Cur, which is some kind of all around hunting/guard dog. She’s bluish gray with black dots -very distinctive.

And she’s a cutie pie. But, being a puppy she’s also high maintenance. Oy! Having [...]

I’m a process person.

I am reading ‘Pour Your Heart into it’ a sort of autobiography of the guy who brought us Starbucks. It is considered a business book, but really it is a beat the odds book that affirms just what might be possible in this great country of ours. More on this [...]

What cancer kills more women then any other? Kills. A very specific point.

Cervical? No. Breast? No. Ovarian? No. Lung? Ding ding ding! You are a winner.

Does lung cancer kill more smoking women? Sorta. It does not specify. It kills smokers and non-smokers [...]

I got Showtime and The Movie Channel for free this past weekend. The wife’s away on business, the kid is at the Grandparents and I am working more hours than Noah after 3 days of rain. So, sitting down and flipping on the tube and seeing a quality movie while I drift into [...]
