Attn: American car makers….

you got passed up a long time ago. For quite some time now car makers like Toyota, Honda, Subaru, and Volkswagen have made better looking cars and made them higher in quality all at the same time. Some new guys are even creeping up on you as well. After spending some time at the bottom…

Quick hits…

Who knows how quick this may end up. It’s 3:03a and I’m not sure if I am awake or ‘sleep-typing.’ 1. Some of you have probably heard that I decided 6/27/07 would be a great day to start breathing again. Since February, I have had what was once thought of as a sinus infection on…

Is it color or colour?

I guess it depends on where you live. Also today I saw the word ‘Lead.’ Why do/did we make it so hard on ourselves by a. giving multiple meanings or pronunciations to one word spelled one way (Lead, follow or get out the way; Don’t eat that paint, its Lead-based) b. make so may words…

My laptop screen is dying. There is an entire website devoted to it: Dell Vertical Line It has been coming on for a while. Just like most others on that site, it started with one cyan line. Now it’s just ugly. I took some pictures of it but haven’t looked at them yet. If they…

this was going to be a decent post, until I hit the wrong button and erased everything. now you get the condensed version. They say problems come in threes. I wish. Who are ‘they’ anyways? The list keeps growing: 1. Lightning and all the damage it caused 2. Mel’s car – replaced CV-axle 3. Mel’s…

You can’t make this stuff up

In a speech in Silicon Valley on Thursday, presidential candidate Hillary Clinton shared her message of being the ‘high-technology presidential candidate’ to an audience of over 150 technology CEO’s.
