Napster!?
Napster. Just the thought of that word brings back memories of 1999. Illegal music downloads. It was the KING of illegal downloads back in the day. After being shutdown, it spawned an entire army of wannabe “programs” (apps only existed as the snack you ate, before you actually ate) that mimicked its style and functionality. […]

Memories, thanks to Google Maps?
This morning I had a little extra time on my hands (which doesn’t happen very often) and I decided to look on Google Maps, at some street views of my old neighborhood in Minnesota. I remember when Street View first became a thing, people got nervous because they thought it would be an invasion of […]

Oscars
The 97th Academy Awards were held in Hollywood last night. The glitz, the glamour, the blahhhhhh… I’ve long adored Hollywood. At one time, I even imagined myself being an actor. They say you’ll never truly realize your dreams unless you attempt to make them come true. Then I realized my radio-friendly face wouldn’t jive with […]

It Finally Happened
Well, it finally happened. These ridiculously high egg prices have finally caught up with me. If you don’t know, I am a big consumer of eggs. I’ve said for many years how I believe eggs are the world’s perfect food. High in protein, low in price. What could be better than that? Well, they are […]

I Feel Guilty.
Let me start out by saying that I’m not the biggest NASCAR fanatic there is, but when the season starts, I always love to take in the action at Daytona. Yesterday was the Daytona 500. And it seems that more often than not, weather delays have become a big part of America’s race. I’m probably […]

I’m Back…and (slightly) Bigger!
If you have ever been on a cruise, you know one of the biggest draws is the incredible food offerings. Some people go on cruises for that reason alone! I do look at it as an opportunity to eat different types of food that I would not get to eat at home. One example of […]

Surprising Grammy Snubs
With the 67th Grammy Awards coming up this Sunday, I was reading about some of the biggest artists that have never won music’s highest honor. Some of the names on this list are so big, it’s difficult to fathom how these people have never won a Grammy Award. Some of these people are absolute A-list […]

Spring’s Coming!
Leave it to me to talk about Spring on one of the coldest days of the season. I’m completely frozen to the bone. Perhaps it’s these cold days that really flares up my cabin fever. I haven’t concealed the fact that I don’t like winter. I’ve lived here in the upper Midwest my entire life […]

What In The Bird-Flu Is Happening???
I remember as a kid being told not to cry over spilled milk, or argue over the price of eggs. All these years later, I still think spilled milk is disgusting, and the price of eggs? Well, that’s just downright insulting. This morning my daughter was going about her early morning daily routine, frying her […]

Important Info for Travelers!
Happy New Year everyone! As I sit here planning my winter vacation, something just occurred to me. There is something very important happening this year that has been in the works for many years. The government had postponed the implementation of the Real ID law pertaining to aircraft, because of the pandemic. As of May […]

No words.
There are no words that haven’t been said before, to describe how not only a community, but an entire nation, feels right now. We’ve been down this road so many times. When will this stop? We stand united in our grief, and in solidarity with our love, for the victims of this senseless tragedy in […]
