Too Much Info about Dogs & Cats - 11/19/07 09:33 PM
I am cruising the internet tonight - this site was mentioned in the N Y Times today. If you are a pet owner (just dogs and cats) this site is for you...videos, tips, breed info, health, services pictures, blogs. And, of course, advertising. The portal (a combo Yahoo meets facebook - only it

Save Some Trees - 11/19/07 09:14 PM
Environmental Groups Cutting Catalog Stacks An article about "Catalog Choice" was in the paper today - I signed up - seems to makes a lot of sense. All of us get catalogs (especially this time of the year) we do not want or even look at them. And between my husband and

Blind Spot Mirrors...You Learn Something Every Day - 11/18/07 10:38 PM
I have an SUV. Very nice, great for Clients. But, it does have a "semi"- blind spot. Nothing radical - I just mean I really have to crane my neck to make sure nothing is in the left lane. So, a friend with a similar situation told me I should get

Where Do The Hours Go? - 11/18/07 09:24 PM

Reliving our unforgettable FAMILY SAFARI IN TANZANIA - 11/12/07 10:57 PM
In mid-August my family and I had the incredible opportunity to visit Eastern Tanzania in Africa for 12 days. The Serengeti, the Ngorongoro Crater, Lake Manyara, Arusha, plus perfect weather, wonderful guides and world-class lodging. We were not roughing it. We saw just about every African animal you could mention - and usually

HATS OFF TO UVA! - 11/11/07 10:31 AM
My 15 yr old son had two buddies over for a Friday night sleepover. Over a pancake breakfast the next morning, I got a kick out of listening to them predict the final score of the UVA/MIAMI game. My husband stepped in to formalize the "proceedings" and wrote down each kid's name

The Origin of "Goody Two-Shoes" - 11/06/07 08:33 PM
The Origin of "Goody Two-Shoes" Ever wonder where some of those expressions we use daily come from (before our morning coffee kicks in and our brains can come up with the brilliant and original witticisms that will carry us through the rest of the day)? This happened to me this morning as I
