Michael Jackson’s comeback at the O2 has been extended to 50 shows (Nearly 20,000 a show or a 860,000 people) and completely sold out. It will be the biggest concert series ever and has set multiple world records. A brief article appears on the CBC here. Part of me almost wants to go just to […]
Howdy to all you guys in geek-land for today’s post is of geeky nature. We have (at work) an HP2605DN with the extra paper tray. Worked great for two years and stopped suddenly last week. This is not your concern. Because it was not easily fixable, I bought a new printer. I took the 2605 […]
I am settling back in after my long weekend with Mom. Fatigue. Blech. Seems a number of you are jealous based on emails and comments that appear on my Facebook feed. Cool. I’m glad you’re jealous. I will remind everyone that I am the best tour guide you know for both London and Las Vegas. […]
Mom’s surprise trip has concluded, and I am now back home. She’s due back in Orlando any minute (if the airplane gods are kind). So. Mom’s trip was to see a Tina Turner Concert. I kept that part from her right until 30 minutes before the show. I hosed her good! That was Saturday Night. […]

I got a call at work today from a credit card company. On 11 February someone applied for a credit card online. On the plus side there’s an IP address. Also, blocking your credit report helps. I received a call at work to confirm I applied for said card. They call the address on the […]
This is adapted from the missive I emailed in. I’ve been shopping at the Doral Winn-Dixie on and off since it opened. Today I went in to make a purchase. I wanted a whole box of some FruitaBu fruit leathers (24/pcs) which I brought to the self-serve checkout along with several other items. I also […]
Last night at the HardRock Paradise Live, Karen and I saw BeatleMania Now — formerly of Broadway fame. Anything Beatles has got to be good, right? RIGHT? We (Karen and I) showed up, and ate at Renegade after trying to decide if we wanted Tatu or not. The waitress saw us and booted our waiter […]
Wendy Richard, a fine actress, perhaps best known as Miss Shirley Brahms in the classic Are You Being Served? series on BBC television which ran for nearly 13 years. She worked with legendary Mrs. Slocombe (Mollie Sugden) who stole the show. Ms. Richard also starred in the iconic British Soap Opera The EastEnders for over […]
