EVDO is here!

Finally! I woke up this morning grabbed my phone and saw the EV icon on my phone. That means that Verizon flipped the switch from 1X to EVDO to allow high speed wireless broadband connections in Birmingham Alabama! I know some of you have no idea what I’m talking about but I’m very [...]

Charter cable nightmare

When I first moved down to Birmingham, I called Charter Cable to set up my television and internet. I had always had cable so I didn’t consider another option. They came by while I was at work and put the cable right through the middle of the carpet in the living room floor. [...]

Karr must be guilty of something

I was fairly positive John Karr didn’t kill JonBenet Ramsey but deep down I was really, really hoping he did it because he is just so creepy. I get the willies just looking at his photo. He must be guilty of something, somewhere! If we can’t find any reason to lock him away, I [...]

Our Fascist Elementary School

Today I decided to have lunch with my son who is in 3rd grade. I stopped off at McDonald’s and got him a Mighty Kid’s meal. I’m going to be a hero today. I stopped in the front office and announced that I’d like to have lunch with my son. A grey-haired woman [...]

Oak Mountain Eagle Football has begun!

Pee-Wee Football has begun! Practice for 8 year olds under 90 lbs is four nights a week starting at 5:30. Some nights are 90 to 100 degree heat wearing pads and helmets. Kids and parents watching the practice are getting bitten by yellow jackets, ants, fleas, and mosquitos. Dads anxiously pace the sidelines trying to [...]

New weapon in the war on terror

Ya got to love the Marines!
