Happy 4th!

Bob — Fri, 03 Jul 2009 06:18:19 +0000

We’re in the country for a little rest and relaxation. It’s nice to enjoy the sun and fresh air, peace and quiet, do a little fishing, and do as we please. We’re going to a family party on the 4th, which should be fun and getting together later that night for some fireworks and festivities. Have [...]

Poor Baby

Bob — Tue, 30 Jun 2009 06:08:02 +0000

The last couple of weeks sure have been rough on the baby. He’s almost two and very mobile, but still not completely coordinated, and loves to explore. Unfortunatley, sometimes he battles with gravity and gravity wins. He was in the back seat of the truck. Up until now, he hasn’t been able to unbuckle himself [...]

CafePress Update

Bob — Mon, 29 Jun 2009 06:00:21 +0000

I’ve mentioned several times that CafePress is one of my favorite income opportunities online. It still is, but lately they have been making some changes that have resulted in smaller and smaller checks.

7 Things I hate on Television

Bob — Wed, 28 Jan 2009 07:51:22 +0000

I’m a TV junkie. There’s usually at least one on in my house and no matter what I’m doing, there’s almost always a TV on in the background. I watch more TV than a lot of people, and I probably notice details most overlook. So, here are my pet peeves – things [...]

On the [Purple] Map

Bob — Wed, 28 Jan 2009 04:43:38 +0000

Recently I was invited to participate in an interesting project called Purple States. The folks that run the project invited one blogger from each state to do a vlog for the site on the economic crisis. They run one per day for 50 days. Being WV, I’m at the end of course, [...]
