My current career is incredibly stressful. I have been at it for almost thirty years, and I look it! So, I got an e-mail today that got me thinking about a change of career. If this guy could do it, maybe I could! Here's his story.I was sitting at a long stoplight yesterday, minding my own business, patiently waiting for it to turn green even though there was no on-coming traffic.A carload of...

What a waste of blog space those last 2 Iar blogs are . No links , no discussion and NO COMMENTS ALLOWED . Is this what blogs are supposed to be ... just slogans in large lettering on our front page ?In my opinion , certain practices such as those will eventually destroy this site if left unchecked.OK , I allow comments .

So, as many, if not all of you know, Shelly and I have a daughter, Milla, who will be celebrating her first birthday on June 6th. Well, Milla hasn't been feeling too great over the last couple days, and has been running a bit of a fever. Last night, her fever peaked at 101 degrees. We gave her some children's aspirin drops and tried to keep her hydrated and comfortable. Clearly though,...

I'm going to give this a shot and figured that keeping an accurate accounting should help out.Never tried this before. Dieted acoupleof years ago as I felt like total shit.

Bottle Bombs Link Kids are putting Drano, tin foil, and a little water in plastic drink bottles and capping it up - leaving it on lawns, in mail boxes, in gardens, on driveways etc. just waiting for you to pick it up intending to put it in the rubbish, but you'll never make it!!! If the bottle is picked up, and the bottle is shaken even just a little - in about 30 seconds or less it builds...

Actually, i received thirteen beers. Thanks Larry! Three were Summit "Dunkel Weizen" (Batch 9, Unchained Series), which i have tried today. A Dark Wheat Ale (and an accurate German translation as well). This particular brew holds true to the classic characteristics of a Dark Wheat...a somewhat complex flavor with a balancing low bitter quality. It also carries that fruity taste that is...
