The (Other) End of the Internet

Yesterday afternoon or so I got an email from my little sister (I’ll bet now that she’s a grandmother she must love it when I use that phrase!) that I thought I’d share here instead of forwarding it to 26,547 people.
I would normally give credit to either the photographer, or the website where the pictures […]

I wake up from my nap and reach for the alarm. It’s already off.
THUMP boom THUMP Ka-boom
Nobody at the front door; the dogs would be barking.
THUMP boom THUMP Ka-boom
We’re not too terribly far from the New Madrid fault line, but I don’t think it’s an earthquake; too rhythmic.
This night […]

I happened upon this video at a blog called I DON’T GIVE A BLEEP.
I’ve never had more than one or two occasions to stay in a hotel room, but after watching this, you can bet your bottom dollar that if I ever do again, I’ll be bringing (and cleaning) MY OWN drinking glass. What these […]

It’s been a month and a half since the tornado went through town and trashed most of the major businesses. I still here the occasional story about how various personal belongings, pieces of furniture, Real Estate Signs, and all sorts of other things are being found miles and miles from where they started.

This morning my sister emailed me an Easter joke. Me being me, rather than just click ‘Forward” and send it to 10 or 12 people, I decided to post it here so that, theoretically, the whole world can groan about it.

I couldn’t have been more than 4 or 5 years old. I don’t think I had started school yet. […]

I just ran across an article talking about the fact that a lot of pets are overweight because they learn bad habits from their owners - such as too many treats and not enough exercise. The article talked a lot about things that you can do to encourage your pet to exercise. One example was […]

A few weeks ago I saw a blog post promoting Zenni Optical’s eyeglasses starting at $8. Since I recently lost a pair of glasses in a tornado, I thought I’d give them a try. Here, for your edification, are my thoughts and opinions on the products I received.
I am going to state here, for […]

I have spent the last couple of hours surfing randomly from blog to blog trying to find ways to entertain myself while everyone else in the house is asleep.
I just happened upon a blog hosted at blogspot.com that was almost physically painful to read. The blog is written by a woman from the Philippines who […]

That weird guy next door showed up this morning wearing the most hideous outfit I’ve ever seen in my life. Seriously. It looked like his closet puked. A red plaid shirt, a blue and white striped jacket, this truly bizarre pair of slacks that had pictures of antique cars all over them, a pair of […]
