I just wanted to take a minute on this family oriented holiday to wish you and yours a Happy Thanksgiving!
I have a lot to be thankful for this year, and I hope everyone does as well.
I'm stuffed, so I'm going to take a nap now!
See ya next time

Tis the Season To Be....Sick
Yes folks, I'm sick as all get out. According to my doctor, I have a severe case of Strep Throat, and apparently, this has been going around my local area. Now what is Strep Throat? Well here is wikipedia's definition:
Streptococcal pharyngitis or streptococcal sore throat (Strep throat AmE) is a form of group A streptococcal infection[1] that affects the pharynx and possibly the larynx and tonsils
Whoa! That's a lot of pretty big words. In easy terms, its a really bad sore throat that makes you feel like a bus hit you, and is VERY contagious. With that being said, that means I cant interact with Marianne or even worse, The Scooter!
I gotta tell you, this sucks! If you have ever been real bad sick, you know what I'm talking about. I can't do any of my normal daily activities. I can't go to work, or go for a walk, or play with The Scooter. Pretty much, I'm confined to the house while being fed drugs. The only good part about this is that I will be able to catch up on some TV watching. (which is a good thing because the DVR is getting pretty full) I would say I would do some much needed podcasting, but I can barely talk so that's out.
Needless to say, I will be down for a few days, but stay tuned, I will be back as soon as possible!

Finally Some Relief....
Today, Marianne, The Scooter, and myself went out to do some early Christmas shopping (and we wound up not buying the first present, but bought for oursleves). While we were out, I kept noticing this trend. The Gas prices were getting lower and lower. YES!!!!! Finally some relief is here from this gas crunch we have been in over the past couple of years! But for how long? And how bad will it be if and when it goes back up? I'm trying not to think about it. Right now I am enjoying "fairly" cheap gas.
Here is my deal. Right now a barrell of oil is about the same price that as it was 7 years ago. The gas price 7 years ago, if I remember right, waas around $1.25 a gallon. Now Im not a math whiz but, that does not quite add up. This is why I'm empasizing the word "fairly". It's not really cheap, but compared to $4.00 a gallon, it is. This is what I think the ultimate goal here is. Do you see the trend?
Regardless of what theroies I may have, gas is as low as its been in a while, and Im loving it, and taking advantage while I can. Go shopping, go out to eat, go on vacation. This will do good for our economy and you. So if your scared to leave the house because the price of gas is too high, I will leave you with this image....
Until next time

While I'm Here
It seems like I just did one of these, and thats because, I did!
This was on my mind, and I figured while I was on a roll, I might as well go with it!
I just wanted to say, I voted yesterday. And I'm pretty damn proud that I did. It's my civic right as an American. Did you??
My mother, for the last six months, has been "trash talkin" about this election, and I mean trash talkin! And after all of the talk that she did, yesterday I asked her, "So did you vote"? She then proceeds to tell me that only did she not vote, SHES NOT EVEN REGISTERED!!! I could not believe it!
The only way to make a difference is to vote, and if you don't vote, you have no buisness to gripe about who is elected or what they are doing. Even if the results do not fall in your favor, you can still be proud that you made your voice heard. With the above mentioned about my mother, I heard a lot of that going in this presidential election. People saying this about him and that about the other, but when the time came, they did not even go to the polls.
So if your not voting, and things are not going as you like, the only person you have to blame is yourself.
Until next time!

Sincere Apologies
Geez, I dont know what to say, but I'm sorry. Not only has it been almost two months since the last podcast, it's also been as long since the last post here. My only excuse is, "sometimes life gets in the way", as so stated by Tee Morris in the Podcasting for Dummies Podcast. We have had a good bit on our plates in the past couple of months with weddings, holidays, special occasions, altered work schedules, and some technical difficulties. It's only about to get worse with the major holidays (Thanksgiving and Christmas)around the corner, but I promise that a new podcast is coming. Keep checking in, we WILL get better with the frequency of the Blog and Podcast.
So, so long until a very soon next time!
