Tomorrow it is going to be in the upper 50s, so I am wearing capris and san...

Since I was going to California in September, I thought it would be wise to get a medical I.D. bracelet in case something happens. The local grocery store chain that also has a pharmacy is selling a new type. It uses the USB port on computers to store your information. That way the emer...3 Recommendations3 Comments

Well so far it's its been a good day, but now I remember why I haven't been feeding sparky every day, cause he left a fresh pile to step in in the middle of the night while getting a drink of water. Eww. I wonder if maybe the green carpet has confused em? Guess I can't blame him though, I was never there when he was growing up, so how was he suppose to learn. ...1 Recommendation5 Comments

This has come up over and over in my country. Should the USA torture prisoners. There are peope who strongly believe on both sides. I think the possibility of torturing a prisoner, just like the use of nuclear weapons, should always be a possibility. Lets face it, our enemies and friends already think we do it, and they are right.
The biggest concern I h...1 Recommendation5 Comments -
