Here’s todays picture.
I just wonder if my life would of been much simpler if I had only stumbled across this series at a much earlier age…
I found this book while perusing the isles at Barnes & Nobles at the FSK Mall. I haven’t been much for books lately especially since I read so much here on the web. I scan about 150 blogs on a daily basis. They range from Local real estate blogs across the United States, Internet gadgetry, SEO, Life Management, and I even have the local newspapers here, and in Pittsburgh loaded into my Google Reader. The reader makes it easier to find new articles. I don’t have to go to every website to see if the author posted any new material.
Here is what is going on around a few of the blogs that I read today. (a peek into my google reader.)
Cool Concepts – The Portable PC Theater – Santa??? Google Analytics Add New Comparison Graphing Tools Buying a Home in Ann Arbor, MI Freddie Mac Reaches Out Sneaking Around – She makes me cry she is so funny Sun setting near Spring Run Eastern Connecticut Photo Friday Get Your “School’s Closed” Alerts
Like I said…it’s just a peek
Have a great weekend and stay home during our Nor’easter this weekend. (get your toilet paper, milk and bread today)

You know you are going to be asking yourself later “What’s there to do on New Year’s Eve in Frederick?” You know it’s going to happen! Well plan early. This black-tie event not only contributes to your enjoyment for the evening, but also helps the restoration process of the Weinberg Center. Now let me share that invitation with you.

A little tribute to one of my Childhood Icons

I learned yesterday that Evel Knievel had passed away yesterday. I grew up watching every daredevil stunt that he attempted. As kids we anticipated every network show he had scheduled. We just couldn’t wait. Then the next day, we would talk about it all day and re-enact the latest stunt. I had the little action figures and the motorcycles with ramps. I even had the bicycle with the red, white and blue markings just like his. We used to build ramps and jump off them…without bicycle helmets!!! There were claims that he had broke every bone in his body at least once…he was our hero. He was larger than life.
Life was so much simpler back then…kids of today just don’t even know
Rest in Peace.
