I decided to go with an eye-catching headline here for my post about my first dinner with an ActiveRain friend who is from another country. Another COUNTRY, I say! But which country is it, Jason? Well, it's Canada, of course! Liz Moras and I had a chance to meet VERY briefly (perhaps five minu...

After having been hounded for weeks by my friend Julie Chapman to write a new meme, I finally decided to just bite the bullet and do it while I have a little free time tonight. Here we go: 1. I sincerely considered a career as a cartoonist or artist when I was a kid. I used to sit for hours copy...

Two of our very best friends, Jay and Joy Hilscher, are the organizers of a 203-mile relay race called the Texas Independence Relay (that's them in the photo). Their second-annual big event is coming up in early March, and the deadline to register is January 31st. I worked as a volunteer for las...

I took my kids to see "The Tale of Despereaux" earlier this evening. It's rated G, which always makes my life easier, since there are no worries about language, or super-scary scenes for our kiddos. The title character is a small mouse with giant ears, who is essentially fearless. In fact, his...

Ken Cook and I have been hosting "Twitter Tuesday" each week for the past two months or so. Why did we choose that name? Well, we both like alliteration, and we talk about Twitter and some of the related tools on the show. We also talk about ActiveRain (since we met here) and using social medi...

If you know me at all, you know that I am the type of person who tends to wait awhile before making any "big" purchases. I have had my vehicle for 8 years now (it has over 160,000 miles on it). We were recently forced to replace our refrigerator after 14 years of solid use. I also don't like ...

I have loved the Stone Canyon neighborhood for years, having assisted many buyers and sellers in the area. We have some very good friends in this subdivision, and I always enjoy getting a chance to visit the area parks and trails with our kids. Located just off of Highway 620 next to the Seton...

I have lived near Forest Creek since 1995, and I have sold countless homes in this neighborhood. Well, maybe not countless, but enough that I know what I am doing there and I know that it has great value. With a challenging and immaculate golf course, it is no mystery why it remains a popular ...

Recently, we hosted a contest called "Turn that Song Off!", which focused on songs that we cannot stand to hear. I never had a chance to write my own entry for this one, but there's no time like the present, right? Which song would I choose for this topic? For me, this was a no-brainer. "We Bu...

I have mentioned our new radio show on BlogTalkRadio.com a couple of times recently, but I realized that I have never made a concerted effort to invite my ActiveRain friends to listen to an upcoming show (until now, that is). Ken Cook and I have been hosting "Twitter Tuesday" each week. Why tha...
