Thank You, Number Sixteen
The jeans I wore this weekend I've had for several months now. But I pulled something out of the back pocket that I did not know was there. It wasn't a big deal. It's not as though I reached in and found a $20 bill, though that would have been awesome. No, it was a … Continue reading Thank You, Number Sixteen

I'm picturing some kind of shipwrecked, tropical island setting. There are times when I go a day or two without contact with another … Continue reading Question of the Week #74

That title should actually read, "Why Daniel Should Have Lost Twice." First, I want to start by saying that I love The Karate Kid. It's got to be one of my favorite movies of all time. I'm not exactly sure where I would rank it, but it's probably somewhere in my top 100. Also, in … Continue reading Why Daniel Should Have Lost

These cars have a history of being safe and, therefore, are seen as good family vehicles. A few years back, Andy was forced to leave behind the … Continue reading The Single Guy vs. the Station Wagon
