Joy Unconfined

He has a new film coming out. ‘Round these parts, it opens Friday, December 21st, and if I can manage, I will see it that day, podling in tow if she wishes. To be honest, I’ve never been a particular fan of Johnny Depp. It’s not that I don’t think he’s a good actor. In [...]

What worthy cause? I just found out about the Memory Walk, and I plan to find the nearest and sponsor someone, or to otherwise contribute to this effort. What is it? A little bit about the Memory Walk: The Alzheimer’s Association Memory Walk is the nation’s largest event to raise awareness and funds for Alzheimer [...]

The site in question is for Hotel Reservations. HotelReservations.com Maybe you travel a lot. Or maybe, like me, you’d LIKE to travel a lot. (I swear, I’m in need of a ‘get out of town’ weekend in the WORST way right now.) However, in lieu of actually GETTING out of town, I also like to [...]

That impression isn’t quite what this movie is about, but if you’re in the mood for prickly skin horror, I think [...]

So there’s this bid site where you win the items up for auction, but only if you have the lowest bid. How do they do that? I admit it. I was curious. Had to go see. Imagine my surprise when I saw I could bid on a BMW 3 Series! What?! That just left me [...]

I like to shop. I do. When I have money, I enjoy the hunt for those things I need, those things I can’t live without. And OH so much more gratifying is closing in on that bargain, that deal, that $$ off of my intended prey. So here’s Coupon Chief. I was pleasantly surprised to [...]
