I read in the Cape Cod Times the other day that the median price for homes on the Cape is down to $310,000.  I believe a year ago, it was reported to be $324,000 and two years ago it was about $365,000.  Now is a great time to buy because we are closer to the bottom, rates are the lowest they hav...

You won't believe it.  I did it.  I gave up all caffeine in my diet.  Not any easy task after drinking it for close to 30 years.  The first 5 days with the migraine headache that would not go away.  Irritable beyond explanation.  People asked me why I did it?  The answer.

I guess playing in Tampa wi...

You know, I did not get caught up in the contaminated peanut butter story,  I figured, I haven't had a good peanut butter and jelly sandwich in a long time.  I won't be bothered by this story.  Well, was I ever wrong,  Now I am getting inundated with email from friends telling me what to look out...

Yes, it is upon us, the infamous Ground Hogs Day!! I love this day as it marks for me the middle of winter, the half way point, turning the corner towards Spring.  Do we care that the Ground Hog sess its shadow.  To me it doesn't because even if it does, we are only looking at 6 more weeks of win...
