What the Heck Is This?
August 9, 2010
‘Twas scouring through the weekly sale page at Buy.com and spotted this funky thing. Got any guesses as to what it is? It’s a mouse! For your computer! I thought I have seen them all, but this gadget just takes the cake! It’s called the Jelfin Gel Covered Mouse. Buy.com includes a little video on [...]
When Ya Need Help, There’s Billy…
August 9, 2010
He’s a little nerdy. He wears thick black glasses. He wears suspenders WITH a bow tie. And his pants are too short. But by golly, Billy’s a helpful lad when you need to save some money. I’m talking about Billy.com. It’s a really nice site- the owner has a touch of humor, I think. Billy [...]

Holy cow. LITERALLY, hahahah!!! :blink: OK I calm down now. This story at Boston.com is both tragic and befuddling. (I’d copy and paste a section of the news story, but I don’t want to get sued for doing so- so you’ll have to go see for yourself). In a nutshell, a family in New Hampshire [...]

I’m Really Sorry
August 3, 2010
I have been such a bad blogger this summer. I haven’t visited all my beloved blogs in a while; and when I do, it’s always in a hurry. I never do Word for Wednesday regularly…. or anything regularly. I don’t leave comments as much. I have WAAY too many sponsored posts some weeks… but the [...]
