The latest story out of the Jets locker room has me intrigued. According to the NY Post, some players have said that Geno Smith and Ik Enemkapli were having words over a $600 debt Smith allegedly owed the linebacker. Supposedly Smith was “taunting” Enemkpali over it. Enemkpali challenged Smith to say it to his face. Smith did and pointed his fi …
I purchased my current laptop last year. It has a touchscreen and came equipped with Windows 8. Somehow, I quickly became adept at interfacing the keypad with the touchscreen and using Windows 8. Now Microsoft has introduced Windows 10 and repeatedly sent me messages about the necessity of upgrading to 10. I really liked windows 8 and was very …
Along with most of our home, we lost four cars during Hurricane Sandy. Although it did not feel like it at the time, looking back it was actually a funny sight. Each car seemed to become almost haunted as they each began to flood. The electrical systems went haywire, the lights began flashing on and off, the windshield wipers went on as did the …
I am a wine drinker. I rarely--if ever-- order mixed drinks. When I go out for dinner I either order a glass of Riesling or Sauvignon Blanc. I only deviate from these two choices when I see a sparkling wine on the menu. Every so often when I see a sparkling wine served by the glass, I’ll change my usual habit and go for that. During dinner …
Last week I was playing on my laptop and planned a cruise around Greece for my husband and I. Nothing was booked; nor did I even sign into any website. But, in my mind, I found the ideal cruise for us. I then looked at possible shore excursions using a few different websites. When I turned off my computer, I had saved nothing from any of my …
We discussed an interesting topic over the dinner table this weekend, overposters. You know the type; you read their Facebook status and cringe from the amount of personal information they’ve shared. Recent posts that seemed, to me, to contain too much personal information included, “Going to take a bubble bath, hoping hubby surprises me” and “Inc …
A recent article in The New York Times piqued my interest. It discussed the trend of many young women to keep their maiden name when marrying. Their desire to keep their name was not so much a political statement, the author wrote, but a practical one. Many of the women interviewed stated that were choosing to keep their name so that it would be ea …
It’s definitely something I have reprimanded my husband and kids for doing when I am in the car with them. But, it is something I am just as guilty as doing when I am driving alone in a car. If another driver does something that makes me angry, i.e. driving too slowly or cuts me off, I very loudly and freely yell and scream at them. Not only do I …
It’s that time of the year again, summer blockbuster time. Don mentioned it last week when he wrote about seeing “Jurassic World.” It’s that time when the huge movies are released. They are meant to totally captivate you and bring you into their world. And for two hours you’re transplanted to somewhere else and your sense of what’s going on in your …
Have you noticed this trend? Whenever we’re out in a restaurant with our kids, we cannot eat the food until they have taken pictures of it. The food cannot be touched by anyone other than them until the food is properly staged and the picture is taken. Once the photo is taken, it is then checked before we can dig in. If the photo is not “Insta wort …
It's Monday, Monday. Let me know what you think about. . .
