Suppose the Tylenol pills had never been tainted. Would our products today have tamper-proof seals? I hate to have to say "yes," because it points out the evil that exists in human society. In other words, I am saying that some other companies would have been targeted by wack jobs and terrorists;... Sign in to see full entry.

Just how many years has football player Larry Fitzgerald been going to the University of Phoenix, and when will he finally finish? Is it really wise for the University of Phoenix to use as a poster boy a student who has taken at least half a dozen years if not a full decade to finish his degree?... Sign in to see full entry.

The harvest of my heirloom tomatoes was so abundant recently, I decided to save them for something special. Greek salad came to mind. I looked up a recipe, and, behold! it also called for oregano.

Diana Nyad was again swimming from Cuba to Florida. Would she fall short yet again? No, this time she made it... at sixty-four years old. Upon completion of the feat, with swollen lips, she uttered a three-point message that should be an inspiration to us all. First, never give up. Second, you are... Sign in to see full entry.

Another major intersection ia being torn up in my area. This is another one near the interstate. I would not be surprised that it will be converted from a traffic light system to a roundabout.
