I have recently started receiving an enormous number of spam emails that are promoting stock. I have decided to identify the stock name and stock symbol. If they have to resort to spam to generate sales, they have to be a sorry company. “Pump and Dump” individuals that want to make a quick profit typically [...]

I don’t know why this ran through my mind today, but as I ran an errand this morning it popped into my head. I remembered taking a vacation when I was a small boy prior to AC in cars and how my dad would take cool water for the trip. He had a water container [...]

Today is the day that Edi cleans the house. She also cooks when she comes. This is one of my favorites that she makes. It is a sort of a chicken cordon blue plate with a fabulous cream sauce. She also made a cream of broccoli soup that was as good as I have ever [...]

If you haven’t heard from me and wonder where I’ve been,
I’ve probably found one of life’s potholes and maybe fallen in.

I don’t know what the problem is, but MoviStar is really having problems with the GSM side of their service. For about a week now, I am lucky to get a call through. I keep getting a network failure message. It is down again tonight.
