We get up in the mornings and make breakfast of yogurt and honey, kiwifruit and plum, strawberry and raspberry, a glass of milk and a banana, and then eat while watching the horrible, horrible things on the news channels.
Recession or not, it is time we made lists for Christmas giving. Shopping moves the economy, like it or not, so we’ll be doing our bit if we bought some things for friends and loved ones. Plus, it’s always nice to be surprised when you unwrap your prezzies on Christmas morning — which is probably why …
One of the funnier moments in the last 20 weeks was comprised of me, sitting in the ob-gyn’s office, reacting to the ob-gyn’s indicating on the ultrasound that Naomi and I would very likely be having a baby boy instead of a girl which I had so confidently predicted previously “because I can just feel it”. …

I can think of a handful of people I know who have been influential, although not in the way we’re accustomed to seeing, in promoting participation, and to a certain extent, excellence in their …
Uploaded with plasq’s Skitch! It’s a crime wave! I mean, when was the last time we heard about an attempted bank robbery?
