For those sincerely appreciative of this great country, and the relatively cushy care-free lifestyle they’ve been blessed with, may they be granted further blessing.

Can you find what’s so outrageously offensive in the above ad? Well, duh… of course it’s got to be the puppy. This little guy is Rebel, a German Shepherd police dog “recruit” who’s been featured recently on police fliers in the Scottish town of Tayside. Now the Muslims in the nearby Dundee [...]

Back on Memorial Day weekend we went to the Cape. The Cape is always a beautiful and peaceful destination, and this time was no different. However, we did bring along a new friend with us… the Canon PowerShot G9 - the most powerful point-and-shot digital camera you can buy (pretty much). We [...]
There is currently a discussion on Albany’s local music blog, operated by CRUMBS.net, over the recent surge in local benefit concerts. It was local music promoter and blog contributor Bill Bucher - a fifth generation firefighter - who weighed in on the topic.
Of the suspect benefit concerts there was one that stood out. [...]
The Boston Celtics just won the NBA championship against in the Los Angeles Lakers! The Finals Series played out - and ended - spectacularly. The Celtics in Game 4 pulled off the biggest comeback in any NBA Finals game ever, and this final Game 6 was a complete dismantling! I love it [...]
Girl (18 years old) goes to Hawaii on school trip. Girl drinks. Girl drinks too much. Girls falls off balcony. Parents sue the chaperone. Parents win. Chaperone must pay parents nearly $700,000! Whiskey tango foxtrot?! Lawyers are the devil.
