As we bid farewell to another summer, I’m reminded of how much I don’t like winter. I know what you’re thinking: “Jay, it’s not even fall yet, and you’re complaining about winter already?” Yes, yes I am. Because as enjoyable as fall can be, it’s a stark reminder of what’s coming next. Long after the beautiful fall foliage is gone (and I’ve raked my yard 15 times) we will be left with the colorless, lifeless, barren landscape that is winter.
With that in mind, I say it’s not too early to plan your winter vacation! My daughter decided she doesn’t like flying anymore. Since I don’t plan on spending 4 of my 7 vacation days piloting the family truckster to Florida, it looks like this year’s winter vacation is adults only.
Darn!

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 […]
