So Japan has won the Women’s World Cup. Yes I was rooting for the United States, but if the US had to lose to someone, I’m glad that it was Japan. That country has suffered quite a bit in the course of the past few months, and let’s face it, they really did need something [...]

I read an article yesterday about how Doug Hutchison of “The Green Mile” married a 16 year-old girl in Nevada. Marriage of minors is allowed in 39 states. So, a 51 year-old guy can marry someone who is young enough to still be in high school. That’s 39 states that see no issue with children [...]

If you pay attention to the commercials, Memorial Day is about the sales. As a side note, it is due to these sales that I did not receive coupons in my paper this weekend. Seriously, that was the excuse by the subscription service line. Apparently people clip coupons and rush on over to the grocery [...]

It was just around this time last week that I started thinking about the Cherry Blossom Festival and how it isn’t that far away. In the past few years I have made it a habit to surround myself with tourists and take in the beauty of the blossoms. Btw, I thank you tourists who visit [...]

My postings have been pretty much non-existent in the past few months and I feel horrible about it since I used to post on a daily basis. Between working a 9-5, going to school full-time, and doing some volunteer work… yes, I had to add that to my already full plate… I have been pretty [...]

Today isn’t just about having the day off or backyard barbeques. Today isn’t about sales at the local home improvement store or discounts at the local car dealership. Today is a day to take pause so that we can remember and thank the men and women of the armed forces who have put their lives [...]

This isn’t a very long posting tonight, but I just wanted to share that my thoughts are on the millions of earthquake victims in Haiti as well as their friends and relatives living abroad hoping that their loved ones are okay. I know times are tough here in the States, but we are very fortunate [...]
