Let me say this about that. “Ah-hem. Ladies and gentlemen, please take your seats.” “We appreciate you coming here on such short notice, but we have an announcement to make that could shake the very foundation of college basketball. In their overtime defeat of Rhode Island University, the North Carolina Tar Heels have advanced to […]
Let me say this about that. Every year since 1948, the folks at Gallup Polls have conducted a survey to determine the people most admired by Americans.

Let me say this about. Anyone who tells you that writing a blog is hard work, probably works for the Postal Service. Blog writing is actually quite simple and requires a bare minimum of tools.

As a German citizen, he joined the Hitler Youth organization in 1941 and eventually served in the German Army as an anti-aircraft gunner. Later, he was given the job of planting […]
Let me say this about that. Every now and then, you hear of an Elvis Presley sighting. I think the last one had him working as a “colonic technician” in a holistic wellness clinic in Reno. Elvis gets around, so one never knows where he’s gonna pop-up next. Elvis should however, take notice of fellow dead guy, Michael Jackson, […]
