Show me the mmoonney!

If you are anything like me, I hate, HATE bank fees, ATM fees and every other possible charge only a lawyer with an accounting degree could imagine.  I do everything to avoid them.  There are times where even mere mortals have made silly mistakes and were charged on our bank accounts for it.  Most people, [...]

another visit to the library..

Looks like a visit to my local library ended up into a book buying fiasco.  As many of you know, I love books.  My interests are wide and varying, so when an opportunity presents itself, I purchase extremely reasonably priced (ie, cheap) books.  This little book sale’s gem include the following;

Jane Brody’s Good Food Book [...]

child’s family photo response to Doug.

Yesterday Doug over at eDoug posted some images of himself from a web camera from his Apple computer. This ‘maverick’ thought he was impressing the blogworld with these silly, carnival fun-house like images.

Count me in.   I’m now considered a fan of a professional sports team.  What???  I know, this comes as a shock to me too!  I can candidly tell you that I never really expected to join any team but over the past few years, I’ve started to enjoy the game of football [...]

a catch 22 for the PRC

I haven’t been able to read up on many recent Tibet issues today, basically there doesn’t seem to be a whole lot happening at this moment.  One can’t have too many expectations when the PRC has instituted what amounts to military law at numerous monasteries spread throughout Tibet, including Lhasa.

to bird view or not to bird view.

There seems to be a running theme with a couple of my friends as of late, it appears as though they’ve been holding out on me. Usually I’m the one sharing any great internet finds, which, lucky you, I’m getting around to sharing with everyone via this blog, but when something this cool [...]
