There’s an old saying, You can get it fast, you can get high quality, you can get it cheap, pick any two. Well it would seem that adage also pertains to the burgeoning micro car market: Micro cars can give motorists top-notch fuel efficiency at a competitive price, but the insurance industry says they...

This date, for things large and small to me has to be about the worst. Commuter plane crash in Buffalo, New York, 50 souls lost. A widow of a victim of 9/11, two band members of Chuck Mangione , just to name 3 people out of 50. In Philadelphia, Officer John Pawlowski, 25, whose wife is pregnant with...
They are our hope and future, our legacy and our life’s story. On a day filled with so much bad news, it is amazing how the good night hug and kiss of a two year old can make the world a little more right....
Philadelphia Eagles defensive coordinator Jim Johnson has had a recurrence of cancer, this time in his spine, team officials said Thursday. Johnson was diagnosed Monday with a malignant tumor on his spine and has begun radiation treatments at Bryn Mawr Hospital, team spokesman Derek Boyko said. The tumor...
I was curious about how much teams were paying their players and found a couple of interesting things: Last year the World Champion Giants had a total payroll of $75,755,388, compared to this year (getting booted in their first playoff game, losing 3 out of their last 4 regular season games) their payroll...
What a football weekend, the Eagles needed some major astrological alignment to work for them, and they needed to win against Dallas to have a chance to get into the post season. They needed Tampa Bay to lose to Oakland playing in Tampa. I had thought that to be not likely, but Oakland did not go quietly...
Well I was working on trying to track down some addresses for Christmas cards when I came across a website for the alumni of my high school. Poking around there I was able to find info on friends and classmates, pictures mainly. The one thing that quickly turned my day was the “Memorial Pages...
If this wasn’t so very sad it would almost be funny. Peter Falk most famous for playing the rumpled detective with his dog and his old Peugeot 403 is suffering from Alzheimer’s Disease. LOS ANGELES (AP) - A court document filed by Peter Falk's daughter says the Emmy-winning actor is suffering...
Did a bit of work on the theme for the site, at the insistance (using the marriage to English translator = nagging) of the Telligent Graffiti Program Manager. :) The layout should now be fluid 800x600 on up.
A new pregnancy belt created by an NYU grad student and worn by his wife notifies him whenever their unborn baby kicks inside the womb. Dad-to-be Corey Menscher, whose wife, Ellen, is eight months pregnant with the couple's first baby, wanted to (at least digitally) feel each and every kick their active...
"The power of accurate observation is commonly called cynicism by those who have not got it." - George Bernard Shaw
Anyone who knows me well, knows I have a philosophy that most things happen for a reason, most of the time the reason remains "behind the curtain" but for a reason none the less. This past week we had to take our second oldest child (if you can call a 17 year old a child) to the hospital to...
It turns out that the feelings I had back in August, that firmed up in September, and have kept me believing all through October were right. This team, is a true team in every sense of the word. They really have some superstar caliber personnel but this post season, and especially this World Series,...
I don't know who hires umpires for MLB, but whoever it is needs new employment. Four botched calls thus far in five games. Furthermore, where the hell is instant replay? You have four bases where the majority of close plays need to be called, how flipping hard would it be to set up 2 to 3 cameras on...
From FoxNews and the Associated Press Well actually the article was titled: Major Northeast Freeway Shut Down in Philadelphia After Large Crack Discovered in Support Pillar But it would seem a more accurate title would have been: Major Northeast Freeway Shut Down in Philadelphia After Large Crack Re...
Be like a solid tower whose brave height remains unmoved by all the winds that blow; the man who lets his thoughts be turned aside by one thing or another, will lose sight of his true goal, his mind sapped of its strength. Dante But what of all of those poor unfortunate polling company and news service...
It has been almost eight months since my last blog entry. I'll spare you the details but between a very busy non-computer related life, (yes it is possible), and following a new passion, (beer and the brewing there-of) I've had less time to sit and write my entries. Add to that the complete and utter...
Miami Fort Lauderdale CBS Channel 4 Finally the hurricane damage has been repaired enough to allow the power to be restored to an elderly woman's home. So? Think about it, when was the last hurricane that hit Florida? It would be 2005. But this lady's house wasn't damaged in 2005, it was damaged by hurricane...
Wednesday May 3, 2006 the body of Earl Woods lost the battle with the cancer that had returned in 2004. Mr. Woods was known to anyone that follows golf, and many who don't, as the father of Tiger Woods. I hope that even through the battle, he was able to see, hear and feel his son's actions and words...
