This Year’s Early Easter Sunday

Tuesday, March 18th, 2008

For my fellow Catholics out there, you may be wondering why Easter is so incredibly early this year. The folks over at FOXNews.com had a great article about this topic posted today. What it comes down to is…the moon!
Pretty weird, huh? From the article:
Easter always comes on the Sunday after the first, […]

“Damn It, Woman - Get UP!”

Wednesday, March 5th, 2008

A few weeks ago I came across this story and I got a good laugh out of it. In short, this woman was passed out in a coma after giving childbirth and after a while they decided to pull the plug. A few days before they’re getting ready to pull the plug, her […]

The Elmo Dolls Wants To Kill You…

Tuesday, March 4th, 2008

Hopefully I’m not the only one who doesn’t understand the craze around Sesame Street’s Elmo character over the last couple of years. What’s the big deal?! It’s a furry little red thing. That’s it! With all of that said, I had to post this story…
It turns out that a freak oddity […]

There Better Not Be A Bailout…

Monday, March 3rd, 2008

With all of this talk about the subprime mortgage market meltdown, I hope that this country doesn’t forget about the student loan scandals that are silently rocking higher education. Just as people were duped into loans that were bad for them, many students were duped into consolidating with organizations that provided a kickback to […]

Top Executives Move On To New Opportunities

Sunday, February 24th, 2008

About a week ago I celebrated my 18 month anniversary being employed by my company. If you read the post on Joe’s Journal, then you know that I wound up celebrating in rare form. And while that journal entry is more a display of a minor annoyance, there are other things going on […]

Back With More Entries For Your Enjoyment

Sunday, February 24th, 2008

Howdy, folks! I realize that my updates on this blog have been few and far in between over the last few weeks, but I will be back to posting somewhat regularly very soon (maybe even…now). For those of you who thirst for my take on a variety of issues, fear not - I […]

Random Updates From All Over the Place

Saturday, February 9th, 2008

The last two weeks have been extremely busy, but there have been great things going on all over the place! Besides the Giants winning the SuperBowl and Bill Belicheck being exposed as the sore-losing cheater that he is, there have been Presidential primaries, work, volunteer stuff, and more.
Earlier this week I had the opportunity […]

More Thoughts on the Giants and the SuperBowl

Monday, February 4th, 2008

After thinking about it a little bit more, I have a few more comments about the Giants in general and the SuperBowl last night. My first thought is that I always thought Jeremy Shockey was a bit of a bully to Eli and the rest of the Giants organization. He reminds me of […]

The Giants Win SuperBowl XLII!

Monday, February 4th, 2008

Whoooo!!! Can you believe it? A team that started off the season 0 - 2 and a quarterback that many had written off as not ready for the big leagues managed to win the biggest game on the biggest stage we’ve seen in the NFL in years! Combine that with the fact […]

More Websites for Usable Web Solutions, LLC

Thursday, January 24th, 2008

Over the course of the last week, I’ve been happy to put together two more websites for my clients. The first site is for Administrative Solutions, LLC. This site is still under some construction and there are a few things that need to be added here and there. You’ll see, though, that […]

No More Traditional Light Bulbs

Thursday, January 24th, 2008

When last month’s energy bill passed, there was a provision that called for traditional light bulbs to be phased out over the next 4 to 12 years so that new, compact fluorescent light bulbs can take over the market. As reported in USA Today:
Under the measure, all light bulbs must use 25% to 30% […]

Try Out The Tanka Bar!

Wednesday, January 16th, 2008

While I was at the Opportunity Finance Network’s conference last month, I picked up a free sample of the Tanka Bite. As their website states, “The 70-calorie Tanka Bar delivers a slow, powerful protein punch by mixing two primary ingredients: low-fat, high-energy American buffalo meat and tasty cranberries.” This little piece of beef […]
