I guess I’m not so much going to review this CD as I am going to make a comparison…a good comparison, in my mind.
Jeremy Camp’s CD, Beyond Measure, reminds me a lot of Dishwalla, circa Pet Your Friends or maybe And You Think You Know What Life’s About though I don’t remember that CD very [...]

The Maine Turnpike began a new program this summer where they handed out fliers titled “Welcome to Vacationland.” These fliers will be handed out to all cars with license plates from Massachusetts, Connecticut, New York, and New Jersey.
The fliers state the following rules for visiting Maine:

Here’s a no-brainer post, and a good way to get back into the Project of the Week.
This week’s goal is to set up the new computer. That means add the software I want it to have and delete the software I don’t. It’s already up and running and has Firefox installed (I’m posting [...]

Just a reminder to everyone: Though there may be some poo flinging and you may see the animals trying to mate with each other, this is a family friendly exhibit.

Eric asked me if I was born with a silver spoon in my mouth. I wasn’t, but I did think I might have been born with a sarcastic retort in my mouth. He said that would make me British. To be from the USA, I figured that I had to be born [...]

Something Is Missing
Something is missing
A void I can’t bear.
Something is missing
‘Cause you are not there.
I took you for granted
With hardly a care.
I took you for granted
Something quite rare.

To times less forlorn.
Joyous those days
We alone did adorn.
Hours before these,
Ones I now mourn,
From whence my presence
So quickly was torn.
How can so few feet
Be [...]

“Just answer the question, sir. Are you or are [...]

I’ve never really been involved in a car accident until today. I must say that I found it quite anticlimactic. It’s snowing. I was driving along my merry way, taking an alternate route to work since someone was blocking traffic along the regular route, when a big Jeep coming down a hill [...]
