Andy Griffith

June 11th, 2010

Was cruising the television last night trying to find something interesting to watch. You would think that with all the channels that I have that there would be plenty to pick from. Not happening here folks. I did end up watching a few episodes of The Andy Griffith Show, which was pretty cool.

Cell Phone Issues

May 27th, 2010

I can’t wait for the end up June to arrive. I will then be totally done with my two year commitment with my current cell phone provider. which happens to be Verizon. I’m so tired of their B.S. and have wanted to sign up with another provider for such a long while now.

The Internet will certainly come in handy in finding which provider will have all the things that I need. A chore like this one could take some time and time is money, neither which I have much of these days.

Jobs in the Green Market

March 7th, 2009

I was reading on the Forbes.com news website that the “hottest” job trends are in the “green” market.  The article indicates that Washington DC, Boston MA, Houston TX, San Fransisco, San Diego and Las Angelas are all going to be huge markets for “green” industries.

I sure hope that’s true.  We could use some job growth around here!  Lately it seems to have been all “doom and gloom” news about the economy and people losing jobs.  We sure need more jobs, and better jobs right here in the area!

When will the “chicken littles” get over it?

September 23rd, 2008

Goodness knows I’m getting tired of hearing “the sky is falling” messages from people about how using cell phones is bad for you.  For years people have been trying to link cell phone usage with brain cancer, and now they are trying to link it with decreased fertility in men?  Good grief!  Get over it already!  If there is decreased fertility in men, where exactly are they holding their cell phones?

Pigeons for dope smuggling?

August 24th, 2008

I was reading an article on ananova.com a story that prisoners in a Bosnian jail were using pigeons to smuggle heroin into jail.  It seems that one of the rehabilitation programs in the jail involves raising pigeons, and someone in the program took it a little bit further than intended.  The “guilty” pigeon has been put behind birdy bars.  I’m surprised that the folks in charge of security didn’t see something like this as a possiblity of happening as a result of raising pigeons!
