Today I received two e-mails. The first was an HUGE diatribe on the greatness of the Islam faith. I have no idea how many pages of information it held but I stopped counting at 10. The next e-mail was an e-mail to boycott products and services from companies who were anti-Islam and most notably w...

Most women think that there is something wrong with me. I love tools. I love browsing down the isles of a hardware store more than I enjoy browsing through the isles of a lingerie boutique. I love the tools that are available for the PC and it’s various programs. And of course, I love best the t...

Jobs are being outsourced and mortgages are killing homeowners. Prices of food and other necessities are escalating. There are wars and rumors...

 Thank you for your great reception to my newness. Your warm welcome and responses have encouraged me to continue with that learning curve I am exploring. I'm feeling like a puppy just checking out his legs-you know, sort of wobbly and walking sideways.It has been a long and cold winter here in A...
