Led Rope Lighting - March 29th, 2008

I have been contemplating changing the lighting in my office. Led Rope lighting looks like a pretty good option, but the research keeps leading me to other things. I need direct light with a small lamp, and then I would like the rest of the room lit with less of a direct light affect. When [...]



Mens Straw Hat - March 28th, 2008

Every year about this time, I tell my wife I need a Mens Straw Hat. And every year, usually about the time I pull my Fedora out for winter wearing, I realize I never got my hat. I probably have close to 100 Baseball Caps that I wear year round, but I want something a [...]



Singulair - March 27th, 2008

It is being reported in the News that the FDA is investigating Singulair and the reports of mood changes, suicidal behavior in people taking Singulair. Why did this get my attention? Well, if you have listened to any of the drug commercials these days. It is absolutely ridiculous. Most of them sound like the side [...]



Spring in Mississippi - March 26th, 2008

We are only a week into spring and I am already tired. We have had some beautiful weather over the last week, the flowers are blooming and the yard work is already causing work. I spent 2 whole days cutting and mowing. I just love the big lot, until it’s time to mow and trim, [...]



March Madness - March 23rd, 2008

So much for my March Madness bracket, thanks to Duke losing to West Virginia in the second round. Growing up in Texas and now living in Mississippi I know there are a lot of quality southern teams I should be rooting for, but, I have been a Duke fan for 20 years now and it [...]



Instamatic Karma by May Pang - March 18th, 2008

May Pang is getting a lot of press with her new book Instamatic Karma. I am sure a lot of people do not even know who May Pang is. She was the woman that John Lennon spent 18 months with in the middle of his marriage to Yoko Ono. That period in Lennon’s life has [...]



Brett Favre Retires - March 4th, 2008

After 17 years Brett Favre retires, no really. I hate to say it, but the first thing that comes to my mind is that I am old. I clearly remember when Brett Favre came into the NFL as an Atlanta Falcon. And think about that, after one year in Atlanta they traded Brett Favre to [...]



Jeff Gordon Crash - March 3rd, 2008

Yesterday at Las Vegas Motor Speedway Jeff Gordon had one of the hardest hits we have seen in some time. After bumping with Matt Kenseth, Gordon’s car spun to the inside of the track and hit at the one spot that is not protected by safer barriers. What really made it worse is the angle [...]



Van Halen Tour Cancelled? - March 2nd, 2008

Rumors are that the Van Halen tour is being canceled due to Eddie Van Halen having issues. What a shame, I really thought this tour might help Eddie, especially with his son Wolfgang playing bass. I know when I saw them back in the late eighties it was Michael Anthony and David Lee Roth who [...]
