Four Commitments to Barack Obama…
I found this article on one of the blogs that I read. I’ve been kind of sitting back watching, wondering, and anticipating what and how Barack Obama may orchestrate his ”change” mantra.

I must say after about 30 cache finds so far I am hooked! Geocaching, for those of you that are curious is an international “treasure hunt” of sorts. Individuals [...]
Some Pictures Just Need an Caption…
I saw this picture and couldn’t help but think that I had to find a way to share it with you all. I believe it had a tag on it of cavity search. I guess this could be one caption for sure. Let’s start a “creative caption” thread. Enter your comments on this post with [...]
The Bailout(s)…
I’m sure that all of you have an opinion about the current economic condition. Many of you may be caught up in the economic turmoil that we read about and hear on the news… mortgage foreclosures, retirees having to go back to work because their 401Ks have about 1/2 the value they had prior to [...]
