Mr. B, who doesn’t “get” the whole blogging thing, felt the need to point out a particular comic strip to me in yesterday’s paper.

HS’s car needs to have the transmission rebuilt. Somehow spending $2,000 on a 10 year old car doesn’t seem worth it. So Mr. B wants to sell his car to HS and get himself something newer. We are debating the pros of used and new. Since neither one is in the budget, does it really [...]

I was thinking that I was just about finished with my holiday shopping. In fact, I only have one gift left [...]

Extreme Makeover: Home Edition has been in Louisville this week, and it has literally been the talk of the town.
Instead of a makeover, this was a demolition and complete rebuild for a family that has already been in the news. Their oldest son, Patrick Henry Hughes, is blind and confined to a wheelchair. [...]

Apparently there are still people out there who believe that (insert name of just about any company here) can somehow track their forwarded emails and will send them a gift certificate for sending on an email about their company.
Just in case you are one of these suckers non-techno-savvy people, this is not only not true, [...]
