fun: One Shining Moment, One Pitiful One - 04/09/08 12:38 PM
I watched the NCAA men's basketball championship. I'm happy for Kansas. As far as states go they deserve more credit. It's just too bad they don't play their games along I-70. Afterwards, I waited for one of the players to hurt themselves while cutting down the nets. An NBA career ruined. A

fun: Flawless $$$ - 04/09/08 11:33 AM
Demi Moore looks good. Her backless dress reveals a body made of rebar and tempered steel. Her graceful aging might only be trumped by her Flawless costar, Michael Caine. He just turned 75 and has appeared in every movie ever made.
I have a feeling this won't be a big hit.

fun: Shine a Light $$$$ - 04/09/08 11:30 AM
After finally winning an Academy Award, Martin Scorsese can direct something other than sprawling period movies and gangster films. Here he takes some cameras to a rock concert and, without Leo DiCaprio, could very well be up for more awards.
Shine a Light is for true Stones fans. It's little more

This story I think was first report in April 07 in the UK, I believe by the Beth Hale of the Daily Mail, although there are numerous reports on the internet. It even made the "Coffee News" in Mount Pleasant, SC. It's a strange and slightly wacky story, my reason for posting it,

It's Spring again and you can feel the energy in the air. As the flowers blossom so have the buyers. They are out in full force. For the longest time buyers were suppressed in the darkness of the winter. Cocooned by the news that was plastered to the TV and the

Well after a weekend of Active Rain technical difficulties....the perfect way to start today would be if all our technology worked....websites, blog sites, cell phones, computers, everything :) Another thing would be to realize that even when technology breaks...life goes on. I know, my website was down for over a week.....and

Horchow has this awesome, basic but insightful, glossary on rug terms. I'm always impressed by the random knowledge I possess, only due to the response it warrants (really? wow, who knew). Rug talk is important. I mean, you'll probably spend a good 1/4 of your life on a rug somewhere. Know

fun: April Fools Hoaxes and More - 04/01/08 12:27 PM
I always look forward to anticipating and then experiencing what ActiveRain dreams up for April Fool's Day. This year they focus on the points system. (If you're not part of ActiveRain you're missing the fun of earning points that have no monetary value -- whether inside or outside of ActiveRain.) While we don't ever

My wife and I sold our own house last week and moved a few blocks away. We laughed that during the move we could never quite get everything out. I must have taken the "last" load about 10 times in the last few days. On the morning escrow was closing I went up
