  • Conversations With Stephen

    Image via Wikipedia Stephen: Daddy, when you make my lunch can you make sure you put in a juice box or two? Me: I forgot? Sorry, buddy. What did you drink? Stephen: Nothing. Me: Nothing? All day? Stephen: No. I had some chocolate milk that I don’t like. Me: You don’t like chocolate milk? Stephen:…

  • Soul Train Playlist 1

    In the Music section of Comcast On Demand, there is a selection called Soul Train Playlist #1. Here is the description: A medley of great performances including The Staple Singers, Freda Payne, The Chi-Lites, Joe Tex, Wilson Pickett, War, Ike & Tina Turner, Joe Simon, The Stylistics and Lou Rawls.

  • The Song That Made Me A Johnny Cash Fan

    Most people who know me know that I am a big Johnny Cash fan. I prefer his older more rockabilly stuff but it is all good to me. However, the song that made me a Johnny Cash fan is NOT one of his songs, but rather a song by a band from New York called…

  • Sleepy Philosophy

    In the post-apocalyptic landscape of life, most people think they are Mad Max, when we are actually the Helicopter Guy.

  • Quick Non Spoiler Review of ‘Lost: The End’

    Image via Wikipedia I thought the series finale of Lost was great. Exciting, touching, heartwrenching, and satisfying. For me, this ranks up there with the series finales of ‘Life On Mars (the original, I still haven’t seen the ending to the US series), The Shield, The Wire, Battlestar Galactica and Dollhouse. In fact, it definitely…

  • ‘Happy Town’ follow up

    Image via Wikipedia This isn’t exactly a review because I couldn’t make it through the entire first episode of ‘Happy Town’.

  • Sometimes I Just Miss My Dog

    We currently have two dogs living in our house. Lola is a short-haired pointer mix (with what we aren’t sure but possibly pit bull) who is without a doubt a Mama’s girl. If Patti is in the house, Lola is either right next to her or laying down somewhere keeping a watchful loving eye on…

  • My Thoughts On St. Patrick’s Day

    Image via Wikipedia My thoughts on St. Patrick’s Day are quite simple. If you refer to it as “Amateur Night for Drinking”, then most likely you are an asshole and have a drinking problem.’ Beyond that, I don’t get gifts or the day off, so I don’t care.

  • Does Gmail’s Spam Filter Still Work?

    Image via Wikipedia I have putting off writing this blog post for one reason or another (I’m not really sure to be perfectly honest with you) but something today the question has popped into my head once again: Does Gmail’s spam filter still work? I went from getting one or two spam messages in my…
