Article about an overweight female blogger (opens in a new window) You go, Girl! Regular size (aka plus size) women rock, and they certainly do not need any negativity about their body size. I’m hoping more and more women start to think more positively about their bodies. Please do not be ashamed or embarrassed about […]

Garbage disposal
Feeling a bit dumb. Garbage disposal jammed. Immediately tried the broomstick method a couple of times, no luck. Didn’t want to make it worse by frying the motor so I left it alone while I scratched my head. Finally goggled it, found a video showing the hole in the bottom of the unit, where you […]
BusinessWeek devotes double issue to “computer programming”
Not my quote: “It’s no longer acceptable to be ignorant about the ways it <BSW: “software”> works,” he said. “If everybody brought the same ignorance about software to medicine, it would be insane, we would be mocked.” “Software is a completely different discipline and we wanted to help to demystify it for the world that […]

Gay marriage – my thoughts
A former HS female friend today posted a comment along the lines of “Why is America encouraging sodomy?” [If I remember correctly, I believe her husband is a church pastor and they are currently doing missionary work overseas.] A different FB female friend – a former work colleague and someone apparently religious enough that they […]
“Black and White” song – interesting history
Spotify #NowPlaying “Black And White” by Three Dog Night. First heard this song in 1972 (at age 13) becoming one of my favs around the time I was just beginning to become aware of, and appreciate “popular” music (on the radio), etc. I didn’t know until a few mins ago, it wasn’t written by Three […]
