No, I’m not talking about the movie The Island of Dr. Moreau… Many people thought it was awful, but I actually liked that movie, last time I saw it anyway over a decade ago. Scared the heck out of me though; I saw it in college and had to walk home from my friends’ dorm […]

While we’re on the subject of politics, I was reading about Jenna Bush’s upcoming nuptial’s today, and I discovered an interesting article about the parallels of opposites between Bush’s daughter and former President Roosevelt’s daughter Alice, both of whom will be married while their fathers were Presidents of the United States; Jenna’s wedding taking place over a century after Alice’s. From CNN.com: Doug

While I am a current events junkie, I am most reluctant to follow politics for some reason. Give me true-crime stories, entertainment news, or natural disaster tales any day – I can’t get enough. But when it comes to politics, I have trouble even forcing myself to follow the news, even though they talk about
This is my 100th blog post! What a long way I’ve come from my first blog post, aptly and boringly titled, “First Post” – it was a description of me learning to blog! And what a variety of subjects I’ve covered, from retractable sharpie pens, to kids’ blankies… from movies and tv shows to animals,

The subject line of the email reads: Fwd: Dangerous Spider Bite – Brown Recluse Spider (Graphic pictur… The body of the email shows some awful pictures of someone’s infection on their hand that they supposedly got from a spider bite.

In the town where we live, I’ve noticed a weird phenomena: there are many houses with second floor doors that lead seemingly nowhere. Well, they lead outside, but that’s it – no stairwells, no balconies, no screened-in porches. Just random doors on houses. Perhaps there used to be something there, maybe a staircase, etc. It
There’s been lots of talk of this number on my blog lately, but this time I’m referring to the movie 21, not the tv show. I have to admit, I was a little reluctant to see this movie because the previews reminded me of Ocean’s 11, and I was not a big fan of that
What a time for me to stumble across this article on CNN – Don’t Let a Hospital Kill You I visit the doctor’s office monthly, and it’s time for me to start visiting every 2 weeks already! Also, I will be a resident of a hospital in about 2 ½ months! As I’ve written before,

Well, the Cubs lost their second series to the Brewers this season, but equally upsetting is what happened today during the 7th inning stretch. Taking place at Wrigley Field, today’s game was the “rubber game” of the series. Someone decided Bob Ueker, aka ‘the voice of the Brewers’ would be a good guest to come and lead the crowd
