In the global world of comedy, “Say something funny” is the ultimate Weapon of Mass Destruction (WMD), claiming more lives and quick-witted tongues than the WMDs stored on temporary U.S. military bases scattered across the sands of Iraq.

Yesterday, I started this running thread in an attempt to fish out the positive stories that we encounter daily. Even though there was a lot of good feedback, the comments were still missing the meat of what I was hoping would appear. There has to be something positive that happens to people daily. I can not believe that a person can go through an entire day and not have one positive experience. S
Since it’s Thanksgiving, I’m going to take it easy today. If there’s anything worthwhile I may or may not post it. You’ll just have to keep coming back to find out. But while you do that, here are some Miss Hawaiian Tropic Models. They may not be the hottest bunch you’ve ever seen, but they’re in bikinis, so that’s something to be thankful for.
I have been thinking about doing this for some time now and after the new year, I thought that why not ring in 2009 with a positive attitude. This is a simple process. I am going to write a little blurb each and every morning and then post it hoping to fish out something positive that happened to people the prior day. It can be something simple or something complex. The only key is that it has to
So is everyone ready to ring in the New Year. Do you got your entertainment center all pimped out to turn on the tube and watch the old ball go down? I seriously can't wait. I get to anxious this time of year. Something about worrying what the New Year will bring. This year isn't really anything fabulous. Now that the wedding and births are over, I have nothing major happening. I guess I

Although the largest town in Warwickshire is Nuneaton, the county town is Warwick, best known as being the birthplace of William Shakespeare at Stratford-upon-Avon.The earliest reference to Warwickshire (Waeinewiscscr), was in 1001, and named after Warwick meaning dwellings by the weir.Warwickshire was ruled by Coventry during the Middle Ages, which at the time was very important, due to to textil
I love stories about the good side of human nature.

About twenty five years ago I was a young wife and mother with 2 little boys.The oldest son was in school and I had a little extra time on my hands. I thought I would try making a quilt. I found a pattern in a magazine. It was cute. It had different scenes with frogs wearing overalls. Each square was hand embroidered.Then we started building our first house. Ourselves.and my quilt was put away. Li

A decade ago, renegade racer Shane McConkey left the world of established skiing to pursue his passion for extreme "free skiing."

Yes, you're very busy trying to pull all those loose ends together before your wedding day. But don't forget to take some time to arrange accommodations for those out-of-town guests who have gone out of their way to come celebrate with you. It isn't always practical to have guests stay with family or friends, especially if you're considering having them stay with yourself or your immediate family.
As 2009 approaches, most real estate professionals have packed up their bags and are crossing their fingers for a better year that is just around the corner. Unfortunately for that bunch, doing the same practices and hoping for a market change to save them is not going to yield any tangible results.
Change is inevitable. Whether the [...]

After declaring bankruptcy over 8 years ago, our family learned the hard way to not use credit cards. Contrary to popular belief we were not offered lines of credit after leaving the bankruptcy court, in fact we were denied credit for several years. Getting low auto insurance and health insurance rates were not around since they based their rates partially on credit ratings.

Yesterday my husband asked me how I would feel if he put his name in the hat for a position that would be a promotion but is about 2 1/2 hours North of us. It's an area of the state that we have no interest moving to (he doesn't either!) but we are waiting for that elusive promotion and if there is a need at that particular location, we know that not too many people would be interested in going

A few months back, a vocal-only take of Van Halen's "Runnin' With The Devil" made the Internet rounds, and as you might imagine, listening to David Lee Roth's exclamations and interjections without the counterpoint of Eddie Van Halen's guitar was a surreal experience, one that made you wonder just what sort of karate moves he was contorting himself into in order to hit the perfect "WAUUU!"

Villanova is off to a 6-0 start to their season. They are ranked 20th in the country. They are one of six teams, along with UNC, UCLA, West Virginia, Louisville and Memphis, to make the Sweet Sixteen in 3 of the last 4 years. Things are good on the Main Line, but there is a good chance they will get a lot better. In fact, probably better than people in the area realize.
