October 31st

  Today is Halloween, just in case you see someone dressed especially odd, this is probably the reason. I just checked Wikipedia and saw that many countries do celebrate this day, most commonly in the United States, Canada, Ireland, Puerto Rico, Japan, Australia, United Kingdom, and at times in parts of New Zealand. C’mon, that’s [...]

Filler up please

I had a reader send a topic idea…Pharmacists refusing to fill birth control prescriptions because of their religion. I have heard of these pharmacists but I only thought they were refusing to dispense the “morning after pill” (which is wrong), I did not know they are refusing any contraceptive pill. What about selling condoms, do [...]

Let’s Do the Time Warp Again

  Yesterday I was asking my manfriend’s 16 year old if the ever saw The Rocky Horror Picture Show…he never even heard of it. I know my children are privy to this flick so now I am wondering if it has stopped for this newest generation. The Rocky Horror Picture Show is a musical comedy [...]

We’re in the stretch

Yes, we all know it’s only one more week of hell for everyone…seeing millions of posters on the sides of the road (so many that you can’t even read them), phone calls asking or telling you how to vote, commercials on T.V…or should I say lies on T.V, Palin’s face  (sorry, did I say that [...]

The Name is Bond

On November 14th the new Bond movie opens,Quantam of Solace. I believe this will be #22 in the series. Even though I am estranged from my father I still have a great memory as a kid, going with him to see a James Bond double feature at the theater…I believe Gold Finger was one of them. [...]

BOO!

The dreaded season

Two months from today will be Christmas Eve, the night that presents are put under the tree. I would have to bet that in most households there will be a lot more room under that tree. Yesterday I was at the mall and yes it was a Thursday but still it was dead, in some [...]

Checking out

Can every company please use the same debit/credit card check out system. First of all, some places need to scan your card in most other places you scan your card. Then you spend a few seconds trying to find the “pen” so you can touch the screen, of course some of the pens are now [...]

There is no “I”

Yesterday, in order to save some money, I washed my car. I really put a lot of effort into it, scrubbing hard with all my upper body strength (which isn’t much). When I was done it looked like crap, the water spots that were on before my wash were still there. And I would have [...]

V.ery P.ersonable

Honestly, I didn’t really have an opinion on Joe Biden, he came in quietly as the VP candidate unlike his opponent Sarah Palin. Sarah has been in the spotlight or more like a deer in headlights and Joe’s been quietly doing his job. I didn’t watch their debate because I just can’t stand to hear [...]
