Tab Energy Drink by The Mrs - October 31st, 2006
Okay, I’ve finally joined the energy drink craze. It’s taken a couple of years for the drink makers to come up with one that would appeal to an over 40 mom, but Coca Cola has done it with their drink TAB Energy. My husband and many other men are drinking “Rock Star”; male ego inspired [...]
New Millennium Business Plan - October 22nd, 2006
This cartoon is probably a lot more realistic than we realize. There are a lot of companies and sites being built for the purpose of cashing in on the big sale. And when companies like YouTube come along and are only out there for 18 months before being bought up for $1.6 BILLION dollars, it [...]
A hole in Picasso’s Dream - October 19th, 2006
In a $139 million dollar mistake, Steve Wynn put his elbow through the center of Picasso’s “Dream” painting. Wynn had been set to sell the painting and was showing it to some people when he accidentally hit it with his elbow and put a small hole in the center. Obviously the sale was cancelled and [...]
Top Television Shows - October 18th, 2006
According to Lycos the following list is the Top 10 Television shows. I watch more TV since installing a DVR, simply because I can record and watch it when I have time instead of trying to fit into the Networks schedule. Only #8 & #9 are on my recorded list. I guess I am still [...]

Paraskavedekatriaphobia - October 13th, 2006
It’s Friday the 13th, the one day of the year where Paraskavedekatriaphobia can cause people all kinds of problems and stress. I saw the original Friday The 13th movie at the Drive In Theater in 1980. I wonder how much influence these movies have had on the naming and diagnosing of Paraskavedekatriaphobia? And why is [...]
Cory Lidle Plane Crash - October 12th, 2006
I could not believe this happened. How can a plane, any size, fly around the New York City skyline? Especially after 9/11. I thought for sure that the initial reports were wrong, but it actually happened. The plane Cory Lidle (New York Yankees pitcher) was flying was a Cirrus SR20, a small 4 seater equipped [...]
How many types of Cancer are there? - October 11th, 2006
I was doing a little research into Cancer, again. I guess once you have been through Chemotherapy it stays with you. The concerns of cancer coming back are always with me. It’s not really a worry as much as a realization that it is highly probable. I have written some about my Chemotherapy at my [...]
Serious Atomic Threats - October 11th, 2006
It’s starting to feel like we are going back a few years to the days of worrying about Nuclear War and everyone thinking of building bomb shelters in their backyards. First Iran and now North Korea. I guess I am not as up on world events as I need to be, but, I am very [...]
