Gas prices just keep going up, so it seems logical to assume that one pays more for a gallon of gas now than what one paid a couple years ago... unless, one has a more fuel efficient car now than a couple years ago. I am such a person paying less now. I had a car a couple years ago that was average... Sign in to see full entry.

Contraceptives Mandate Should Be More Broadly Opposed
I applaud the seven states that are suing the federal government on account of the imposed contraceptives mandate. Government has no business dictating the provision of contraceptives, just as it has no business imposing a mandate for Obama Care. Religious organizations are being trampled upon,...

Marked Improvements In Dentistry
I was crowned in the mouth yesterday and had no unpleasant experience. I am being fitted for what is likely my last crown, all in the last few years. I cannot recall being in much pain during the course of these procedures. Also, though, dentistry has improved markedly in my lifetime alone. When I... Sign in to see full entry.

What Cats Will Do
General Lee, my cat, jumped up on my lap just as I was sitting at the computer and logging on to play Facebook Scrabble. I saw it was my turn, so I started to put my letters in place. Then to my dismay, I saw that I was credited with a skip. General Lee had jumped up unto the keyboard and hit the... Sign in to see full entry.
From Cradle To Grave
When does life begin? Dennis Miller surmised that according to President Obama it begins when a person can first apply for government benefits. In other words, before that time, the government or the powers that be, e.g. Planned Parenthood, can deem that you do not exist and therefore that you can... Sign in to see full entry.

With Age, Reading Magnification Needed
Glasses are not only for the visually impaired. The older people become the more likely they will eventually need magnification aid to be able to read easier. Dollar store reading glasses or such glasses otherwise cheap are actually quite popular among an aging population. One of my co-workers buys... Sign in to see full entry.

An Amazing Mango How-To Story
Mangoes are refreshing and delicious, but a new person to try them may be challenged on how to best cut them up and prepared them. Of all places of instruction, I learned how to best cut open a mango by watching a "Colombo" movie. In this particular movie, Colombo was needling the cook, his cheif... Sign in to see full entry.

The Hokiness Of Current Math Education
Until a lady informed of the current state of math education in my state, I was unaware how far it has come down the hokey liberal road. When I heard Rush Limbaugh lampooning liberal math teachers about "2 + 2 = 5," I thought he was speaking figuratively. I wish I was wrong. The lady told others and... Sign in to see full entry.
'Immorality' In Politics
Depending on the political party, the examples given of immorality will vary. To Republicans, what Bill Clinton did with Monica Lewinski was immoral and also cast a doubt upon Clinton's trustworthiness on the national and international stages. But for Democrats, illicit sex life is not immoral; it... Sign in to see full entry.

Every Car Make Seems To Have Its Bugaboos
For the second time in a year, I broke a Nissan car key. My car door is not the easiest to open. Today, I was trying to open the door, but the key became stuck. I could neither move it to unlock the door nor even take it out again. With a spare key, I opened the passenger side door, opened the... Sign in to see full entry.
