Is it my birthday yet?

Friends have heard for months about our rage with Verizon Wireless. I’ll spare you the horrid details but lets just say they tried to screw us out of $250 bucks and I was just not having it. We were treated like scum and basically when we fought them on it, they refused to work with [...]

If Maury calls, don’t answer. Get new friends.

Someone once asked in a college class of mine, what facinates you?
My answer, any idiot who gets a call from the producers of “Maury Povich” or “Jerry Springer” and actually answers it! I mean come on people, do you seriously think that the end result of that call is going to come out good?

My son and the closet.

Remember the days when all your extra cash (and sometimes even the dollars that should have paid a bill or something responsible like that) went to your 5th pair of black boots or that oh-so-hot pair of jeans?
Ya, then have kids and see that fly down the freeway like a warped hub cap.
