This week was filled with events. One funeral and one wedding. It was the worst of times, it was the best of times. These two events were certainly memorable and lasting. The bonding of people and the separation of people. Again it’s about relationships. Without writing much, the important thing to remember is that while […]
Ahh, the idea that spring is coming is a hopeful thought. To us in the north it means, no more scraping ice off windshields in 0 degree weather while our hands are frozen and the wind bites our nose. No more salt that ruins our car mats, house floors and garages. We can put away […]
Did you know that people have different styles of communication from their heart? You can check it out in the book, “The Five Love Languages“. Of course our favorite love language is the language of gift giving/receiving. Those people are our bread and butter, because. If you speak the love language of gifts, you’ll enjoy […]

Here is another post to increase the ‘content’ on our site. How old are we? We’ve been around long enough to remember it was fun to scroll down in an alt.chat room and see images created using just the characters on a keyboard. Long before images flew around the internet we just used characters. Keys […]
The content on our website isn’t meant to be dressed up with lots of adjectives and adverbs which just take up a lot of time when you’re trying to do your shopping. This site is about whittling down the parts of other websites that provide platitudes and descriptions that explain how great a product it, […]
I’m a programmer. I started programming in Assembler language. I’ve adapted and learned many new computer languages along the way. I’ve learned: Cobol, Fortran, JCL, PHP, Pearl, SQL, HTML, Java, etc. but I’ve never tried to make money from a programmed website, until now.
