Educational E-mails…Making the World a More Paranoid Place

I got this in an e-mail tonight, and I just had to share….It’s kind of long but loaded with laughs.  I have to admit I’ve forwarded a few of these gems myself over the years…
I just want to thank all of [...]

Christmas Traditions or Lack Thereof

Fellow blogging buddy, Heather, posted a list of Christmas traditions…sort of like the Q/A lists you find on MySpace.    I can tell you before I even answer these questions I’m going to get a big fat FAIL, but here I go…

Too funny!  Just had to share.

Friday Animated Silliness

I just love Veggie Tales:

This is mine and Eddie’s all-time favorite Veggie Tale Song:

Top 25 TV Shows of All Time

Okay, after my heavy post on Wednesday lets lighten it up a little for the weekend shall we?   Entertainment Weekly did a feature on the Top 100 T.V. Shows since 1983.  A group of us here at work decided to come up with our top 25 since it could be done in about 15 [...]

We’re going to attend a 40th anniversary celebration for Eddie’s aunt and uncle, but the trip couldn’t have come at a better time, because it’s so hot!

Gladys Knight and Her New Pips!

I don’t know if you watched the American Idol finale on Wednesday night or not. I watched parts of it. Honestly, two hours to tell us who the next American Idol was, was a little much, but there were some entertaining moments. I missed this part of the show, because I was [...]

Iron Man

As a part of our vacation week Eddie and I decided that we were going to see the new movie, Iron Man on Friday May 2nd. My husband and I love movies, but because of the high cost of going to the movies nowadays we pick movies that we consider “theater worthy”, and the [...]

Spring Fever/Storm Fever

Spring Fever…I have it. The trees and flowers are blooming, the air is warmer, and I can feel my S.A.D. (seasonal affective disorder) abating. Today, we had our first Spring severe storm! Too bad we were on the the most crowded/congested boulevard in our city (Independence Blvd.) when it hit! [...]
