Google Ads Don’t Make Sense

Monday, April 26th, 2004

I will let you know to start with that I was turned down for the Google AdSense program because my blog is “too personal”. My brother’s blog fits more into their program. I personally don’t see the difference, but what the heck. What I think is funny is that the program checks [...]

Sinking Feeling

Sunday, April 25th, 2004

We installed new countertops into my In-laws kitchen yesterday. They look good. Since this is a complete do-it-yourselfer we had to cut out the hole for the sink.
I measured and measured and made sure that the hole would be centered on the kitchen window. I measured so many times that my “co-workers” [...]

Friends

Friday, April 23rd, 2004

Friendship doesn’t mean the same thing to everybody. For some people a friend is someone you know and don’t dislike. For me a friend is someone that I know and love. And for me love is a verb, not a noun. The loving of someone takes action. I’m not saying [...]

Please Don’t Remember

Friday, April 23rd, 2004

Reminder: I hate Bush.
About the flak over the publishing of the pics of the flag-draped coffins:
President Bush considers the release of photographs of flag-draped military coffins a reminder of the fallen troops’ sacrifice, but believes family privacy should be respected, the White House said Friday.
Pentagon officials said the photos, issued last week and [...]

Bill Maher

Thursday, April 22nd, 2004

I decided to remove Bill Maher’s Blog from my links. First, because it is not really a blog. It is a website. Blogs require at least a once a week entry, I would think. He hasn’t put anything on there since March sometime. Second, it was not as good as [...]

Like A Rose

Wednesday, April 21st, 2004

I picked Emily up yesterday after she had been running around and dancing and playing her piano and singing. She had a little baby sweat on her brow as I kissed her and got hugs from her.
Today as I was grinding my way through another hellish day in a tire factory, I began to [...]

Yes, Yes, Y’all And It Don’t Stop

Monday, April 19th, 2004

I found out about this Warren Hoge article from slacktivist.com. It deals with Bush first denouncing the U.N. as irrelevant and now crawling back on his knees asking for help. Here is the quote that caught my eye:

“There is a mixture of vindication on the one hand and great apprehension on the other,” [...]

Don’t Forget

Monday, April 19th, 2004

Don’t forget to comment here in order to help me count my readers, even if it is your first and only time reading and you never plan on coming back. I put that disclaimer in because that probably covers the vast majority of people who view this .
Thanks.

Binging and Purging

Sunday, April 18th, 2004

We did a bit of shopping this weekend whilst we were in Atlanta. I have this habit of liking to wipe things out completely and start over again. So what I did is take every scrap of underwear (boxers and socks essentially) and throw them away. Every single pair no matter the [...]

Go Braves

Sunday, April 18th, 2004

Just got back from ATL, had a great time. Marilyn, Robert Lee and I went to a Braves game and did some shopping and a good time was had by all.
The Braves swept the Marlins. It will be interesting to see how the sports world talk changes from the “red-hot” Marlins to whatever [...]
