Never quite enough love…

You can’t get too much of a good thing.  Happy Valentine’s Day to family, friends, and my readers, who I also consider extended family and friends.  If you don’t have anyone around to give you a hug or kiss today, then please enjoy this cyberhug and pass along the love!

Feedblitz subscription — technical blip

Hi all — If you are a subscriber through Feedblitz — my apologies.  There was a technical glitch and it seems that a few subscribers were not getting their email versions of my posts.  In order to fix that glitch, some of you were “reactivated” in the system.  If, however, you were reactivated by mistake, and do [...]

Caddy CTS V series

Caddy CTS V series, originally uploaded by GenPlus.

Another in a lineup of stunning cars. I’m just a consumer like the rest of you, but if I had a premium car in mind, I’d definitely be considering a Cadillac. Definitely NOT the cars your grandfathers drove or the image you might have sitting in [...]

What a yummy car. Men all over the world will drool for this gorgeous piece of machine. And the gals sitting in the seats next to them will definitely enjoy the ride.

Just a really bad day

I usually have a great day.  Every morning I get up with sunshine in my heart (because I’m an unfailing optimist — really tough to be around at 6 am if you typically need a coffee to wake up) and enthusiasm for the day ahead.  Granted, it has been a bit challenging getting back to my [...]

An hour and I’m one step closer…

Good gosh amighty.  Way back, when I thought I could really handle a bit’o’code,  I migrated my blog from Blogspot to Wordpress.  Not Wordpress.com (which is pretty easy for anyone to figure out), but Wordpress.org…that tempting, beguiling site that allows you a whole lot more functionality than if you stuck with simple Wordpress.com.
This has meant [...]

And this is the unemployment rate in my state, California:

And this is a comparison of both. The only good thing is that I like the pretty colors in the chart.

BBC 132

The Boomer Chronicles was the host this week for BBC #132. And with the Jewish holidays, I missed posting The Blogging Boomers Carnival #131 over at So Baby Boomer. Hope you head over to both for a great roundup of Boomer Web-ness.

Austan Goolsbee at the Improv

A very amusing stand-up routine — caught this from Huffington Post (pulled from Politico.com).  Enjoy.  Around 8:50 some funny Sarah Palin stuff.

Blogging Boomer’s Carnival #129

Hello all — I was remiss last week in forgetting to point you to our BBC hosted at Life Two, hosted by Wesley Hein.  He’s one of the founders of the BBC (the carnival, not the broadcast network) and his site is well known and well-niched.  Not too little and not too late!
