We say our kids grow up too fast or that the Dot Com bubble seems like ages ago, yet there are people alive in America today who grew up without planes or cars, let alone satellite, microwaves, and iPods. The [...]

It’s that time of year again. It’s our annual pilgrimage. Just as the grizzlies of Yellowstone migrate to the upper elevations of the Absaroka in search of hearty pine nuts before winter takes hold, we humans too have a migration. Our migration comes in many forms but the end result is the same. Planes, trains, [...]

At the expense of throwing the defibrillator at this blog (see last post) I have to say that 7am MST is way too early to be using a plunger. A Folgers induced Vesuvius rocked the early morning silence on my block. It’s just as well though, I couldn’t sleep in. I had dreams of wolves and bears. [...]

Let me start this post by saying I’m not the sharpest tool in the shed. Now, with that disclaimer out in the open the headlines in the paper continue to shock me. Let’s break down four headlines in the same local paper on the same day…I had to laugh at the comedy of errors. 1: [...]

I’ve been clean for about 3 days now. No not the nose snow, I’m talking about Twitter. I hopped on board in early 08 thanks to a recommendation from a friend in the biz. At first, like succeeding in cook offs it all seemed foreign to me. But soon I was throwing out “tweets” like a Shriner [...]

Craigslist Dealin’

In my time I’ve bought and sold a few things via Craigslist. There’s no doubt it’s the best way to buy and sell used goods and…er services. For the record I’ve never bought or sold “services” off Craigslist. Back to the goods. With going to a strangers house or having them come to yours, [...]

I am moving this post off of its own page and replacing it with a page called Power Rankings. Here I’ll rank my top activities, interests, peeps, etc in my life on a semi weekly basis. Seeing nobody reads this waste of internet space, the Power Rankings are meant purely for my own reference of [...]

By coining the phrase “Slumpbuster”, it’s common knowledge that Mark Grace was and still is a stud. As a hitter the guy was more consistent than indigestion after eating pot pies. And in crunch time ol’ number 17 was more clutch than a standard transmission. With all the freakshows playing ball in the ‘roid era, [...]

I saw a post on the Internet today that liquidity is; When you look at your investments and wet your pants. I know I’m not alone when I say that over the last 12 months my IRA has shrunk like manjunk in a cold river. So I’m looking for a new diversified portfolio for surviving the [...]
