Newly launched news portal

Posted on November 22, 2007 - Filed Under My Stumbles | 2 Comments

Contrary to popular belief, I do get other news besides watching Fox News Channel and listening to Glenn Beck, Sean Hannity, and Rush Limbaugh.  Like most other people, I get news from other portals such as BBC, Associated Press, CNN, Reuters, etcetera, which usually means visiting a dozen or so websites throughout the course of […]

First snow of the year & other pictures

Posted on November 22, 2007 - Filed Under My Boys | 2 Comments

I was so excited Tuesday morning - probably more excited than the kids were. The first real snow flakes of the season were flying and I couldn’t wait to see Vinny’s face when he saw them. By the early afternoon, we had a couple of inches so I thought I would introduce him […]

Well it looks like things are going to be OK.  There are plenty of changes I need to make but the big stuff is taken care of for the most part.  Unfortunately some of my permalinks aren’t working but most of them are - doesn’t make any sense really.  Guess it wont matter really - […]

Nearly two weeks ago, Mary was in a car accident. Nothing horrible happened to her or the other driver, however, our Jeep was totaled. The other driver had a Subaru that, judging from the pictures (I will put them up later), was likely totaled as well.
The REALLY annoying part: She (the other […]

I am done with Blogger

Posted on November 6, 2007 - Filed Under Ranting, Technology | 2 Comments

The first year or so of this blog went rather well from a hosting standpoint - I had been using Blogspot as the host and there was never a problem. That all changed a couple of months ago when I switched to my own hosting via 1and1.com that I experience issues. I have […]
