Smoking bans...

Should smokers be banned from smoking in public places? Since I am a non-smoker and never smoked, I'd love for public places to be smoke free. However, I also understand that smokers have the right to ruin their lungs, etc. if they want to do so. The biggest problem we're looking at is that it's not... Sign in to see full entry.

WARNING: CBS's Shark with a Pretty Face...

This coming month, CBS is putting Katie Couric in the anchor chair. On the surface, Katie Couric seems to be little Mary Sunshine. There was a time I thought so. But the truth is that Katie Couric is a wolf in sheep's clothing or a shark with a pretty face that has every intention of broadcasting... Sign in to see full entry.

Celebrity Gossip Rags

I am of the opinion that the people who read all of those silly gossip magazines must have no life of their own. I was standing in line at the grocery store and began to laugh at all of the ridiculous headlines. How can people be stupid enough to buy that garbage? And why would they waste money...

How Disappointing!

Recently, NBC came out with a TV show called "Treasure Hunters." At least, I think that's the right name. I had recently seen the movie, "National Treasure," so I thought they would be doing a series based on that premise. Unfortunately, when I tuned in, I discovered that it was nothing more than...

Okay, I'm back!

Sorry I've been gone for a while but I've been working a second job for the past couple of months and have had little time to myself. I've been working as a desk clerk at the residential hotel where I live. Talk about an experience! I have to tell you some of the strange things that go on here.... Sign in to see full entry.

World Peace? Ha!

I find it completely ludicrous that so many people talk about having world peace when most of the adults that I know can't even resolve simple arguments in their day to day lives. Recently, I made plans to go to the latest "Pirates of the Carribbean" film with two of my co-workers. Three days before... Sign in to see full entry.

What Mistyped emails can do...

This was sent to me via email from a friend and I thought it would give everyone a good laugh. Be careful of mistyped email addresses! This was in our neighborhood's monthly newsletter: A lesson learned from typing the wrong email address: A Minneapolis couple decided to go to Florida to thaw out... Sign in to see full entry.

Everyone needs to laugh...

Last night I was reminded that sometimes stress can take its toll even on our sense of humor. I've been dealing with a tremendous amount of stress lately and yesterday I snapped at someone over a joke that was really frivolous and certainly didn't warrant me snapping. After a good cry and getting a... Sign in to see full entry.

War Hits Close to Home

Yesterday I found out that my boyfriend's closest friend since high school, who is in the Reserves, has been activated for duty in Iraq. Needless to say, it's been an upsetting time since my boyfriend is a Vietnam Vet and has lived through combat. He's angry and worried and upset and unfortunately... Sign in to see full entry.

How Awesome!

This past Thursday, my parents celebrated their 48th wedding anniversary. In this day and age, that is a truly awesome feat. My sister and her husband will be celebrating their 22nd anniversary in June and most people don't make it even that far. And, my brother and his wife just celebrated their...
