My State Has The Slowest…

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Internet Speed! YIKES! I have been upset for quite some time due to how long it takes for streams to load.

The Games Keep Getting Better and Better! What Action!

This morning the University of Michigan took on Oklahoma State University. It was back and forth for most of the game. At the half U of M lead by one point! They played even the second half and U of M came away with a one point victory! The score was 91-90. The circus which is the panel in the... Sign in to see full entry.

There’s a Break in the Action! Some Very Exciting Games, Too!

I have been watching basketball since about 10:00 a.m. this morning! The three games I’ve seen have been very close. Not any real surprise since the higher seeds have won their games. There haven’t been any upsets that I am aware of as yet! I read an article a couple of days ago that 10.4 billion is... Sign in to see full entry.

My New Motto: Buyer Beware! Now sam444 Say That Aloud! LOL!

I was trying to remember the last time I read a copy of TV Guide! I think it was in my late 20’s at my biological mother’s house. As I remember she was never without a copy of the magazine. When Coke decided to discontinue its current program I ordered a subscription to TV Guide. I was hoping to... Sign in to see full entry.

USA, USA, USA, USA, USA, USA, USA, USA…

Last night USA defeated Canada to move to the second round of the world Baseball Classic. They won the game 8-0. It gets harder from here on out for team USA! I am rooting for them to take it all! Earlier in the day I watch the University of Michigan win the Big 10 title and it put them in the NCAA... Sign in to see full entry.

Store Ads are so Deceiving!

I was waiting until today to buy a computer in hopes that a good deal could be found in the ads. I did find one I thought would work for me. I waited until the store opened and with my Toshiba in hand I set out to see if I could capitalize on the $100 trade in. The ad said the computer had to turn... Sign in to see full entry.

Frustrating Computer Problems...

My computer has decided it doesn't want to read the OS so I am off Blogit until I can get it replaced. I tried using my phone but it's just too difficult. I will probably buy another one in the morning... Until then CHEERS... Sign in to see full entry.

Sometimes We Find Out Things a Little Bit Too Late!

Before Jessica and I went to the thrift store we met her husband for lunch at a pizza restaurant. They serve a fine salad and pizza bar, too! As Jessica and Chris were conversing I was watching a college basketball game. Neither one was paying attention to the game. You couldn’t hear the TV because... Sign in to see full entry.
