For those who might not be aware, my dad was in the hospital from Thursday around 5:00 p.m. until today around noon. The cause — a tiny perforation in his stomach that caused a slow blood leak, most likely from something he ate. Everything has been repaired, and he’s back home now and doing very […]

Want to be different?
If you’re a male between the ages of 18 and 25 and you want to stand out and be different from other young men, I have the best idea for you. It doesn’t involve getting a crazy haircut or tattoos or strange-colored clothing. You don’t have to jump into freezing water, dive off a cliff, […]
Quote of the Day
Jenelle just said this: “You smell good. What did you do?”
My Christmas List, My Christmas List
Those of you who are dying to know what I want for Christmas, I finally have put a list online. If I think of some other things that I want, I’ll add them. There shouldn’t be a lot of people who need to buy for me anyways, now that the gift-craziness on both sides of […]

We’re going to try it later when my parents come over to look at our wedding pictures. Oh yeah, that’s right. We got […]

Deck Wash for 19 cents
