No boredom this Easter! And Olive Garden was open

No boredom this Easter! And Olive Garden was open
I wrote yesterday about the boredom of spending a holiday when nothing is open. No shopping, not all the usual places. But when I spend it with my girls, there is no way to be bored. I should know that. We are a family like none other. Of course we probably are but we like... Read more »

Jodi Arias trial: still not over and costing millions

Jodi Arias trial: still not over and costing millions
Sorry, not millions. 1.4 million to be exact. This trial is ending its third month and is seriously starting to feeling like the Iranian hostage crisis. That lasted 444 days.

I am a Jew, not a JAP so stop the ethnic slurs

Jodi Arias Trial: will this ever be over?

Jodi Arias Trial: will this ever be over?
In the past couple of months I have taken almost an obsessive interest in the case of Jodi Arias, a woman on trial for murdering her ex-boyfriend, Travis Alexander.

Moments: Seize them, embrace them, remember them

Moments: Seize them, embrace them, remember them

In our lives we experience billions of moments, nearly an infinite amount yet, how many do we remember, hold onto and cherish? In times like we live in when everyones lives... Read more »
