     Sorry for the inconvenience, but if you’d like to comment, please click on the post title…I’m in the process of changing themes… Correct me if I’m wrong, but I believe I heard the fat lady sing tonight. You know. Right… Continue reading

  • Best Buy: I’m their poster sucker.

    Clearly I’ve uploaded a new version of WordPress and well…I have a mess to clean up now. At least I won’t be bored this weekend, huh? There is simply nothing quite like waking up on a Friday, looking forward to… Continue reading

  • Once upon a time, the customer used to be right.

    Ahhh…what a difference a day makes; it allows the nut inside to cool down a bit so stock can be taken of what matters. Friday dawned as one should when there’s no work and no carpool duty. I got to… Continue reading
