I want to support the site, so I’ve been visiting it at work to check out what’s going on, the front page right now features a story on Starbucks and pictures of rescued puppies. If they have pictures of puppies every day, then I think I can make it a read. Stories about Starbucks, other [...]

St. Patricks Day, oh crap

I had forgotten it was St. Patricks Day until I got to the bus stop this morning. St. Pattie’s is one of my favorite holidays, and not necessarily for the drinking, I just happen to love Corned Beef and Soda bread.

Arrested Development

I’m 8 years deep into a musical autobiography. I’m listening to TV on the Radio, a band I do not believe my 18 year old mind could have conceived of.
