Believe it or not, scientists have discovered kryptonite on the planet earth! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
Ah man, whenever work is getting you down and you need a quick pick-me-up, you can always depend on the news to give you something to laugh at.

Book Review: Culture Warrior

Sunday, April 22nd, 2007

As Bill O’Reilly’s latest offering, Culture Warrior does a few important things. First, it clearly relates the man’s state of mind. To that end, Bill defines what the real war is in America today: the secular progressives vs. the traditionalists. Anyone who has been a member of this society and kept […]

Almost Got Some Home Improvement

Sunday, April 22nd, 2007

Have you ever tried to put a new door up in an old house? Yuck. I spent a few hours today trying to retro fit a brand new door onto my older brother’s bedroom, but it didn’t work.
It was a rousing effort of manual planing, sanding with a small, insignificant piece of sandpaper, […]

Congratulations to Delta-Beta (Again)

Sunday, April 22nd, 2007

Congratulations to the undergraduates at the Delta-Beta Chapter of Sigma Pi Fraternity, International at Monmouth University. Once again, they’ve won in Greek Week. Unfortunately, I was not able to be present and watch, but I hear it was a fun final day of events where the guys came back from a deficit to […]

Home Prices Suck All Over

Sunday, April 22nd, 2007

Spending this weekend in Morris County has allowed me to look at the home prices up in this part of the state. Yeah, it’s no better than down in Monmouth County. Unfortunately, I don’t know the rental or real estate sales market up here as well as I do down in Monmouth, so […]

Enjoy This Beautiful Day - Get Outside!

Saturday, April 21st, 2007

Today is one of the nicest days that we’ve had in a while - so get out there and enjoy it! I went for an hour and a half walk up and down Roosevelt Avenue in Deal today. I admit that I stopped for about 10 minutes at the end of Roosevelt and […]

Harry Reid Should Step Down

Friday, April 20th, 2007

In a world where Imus was fired from his radio show, Senator Trent Lott had to give up the Senate Majority Leader position, and where Senator John McCain is being lambasted by left-wingers for saying “Bomb Iran,” it is only right that Senator Harry Reid of Nevada apologize for his tyrannical comments and then step […]

Eight Years Later – Remembering Columbine

Friday, April 20th, 2007

Now, I’m generally not one to bring back tragic memories of the past and write about them. However, given the Virginia Tech massacre earlier this week, everyone has a renewed awareness about the other major school-related tragedy in recent history – the Columbine High School shootings.
As I blogged about earlier this week, what I […]

Let the Packing Begin…

Friday, April 20th, 2007

With my lease expiring at the end of May, I am beginning to pack up my stuff. This is an interesting process because, as anyone who has undergone a major move or two can tell you, this is the time to purge all of your unnecessary crap. This is especially true in my […]

Not Really Feeling All That Great

Friday, April 20th, 2007

For the last week or so, I really haven’t been feeling all that great. I think it’s a mixture of running around all over the state and not getting enough of a cardio workout in (I got a great hour-long session in on Tuesday and another 30 minute session in this morning). This […]
