Life Update(s) and Bringing My A Game

Mañana, mañana...

I'm in procrastination mode. Nothing new, but it's been building up to new levels. I wasted (yeah, wasted and not waited) until the last day of the sale to try a bass amplifier. All the store had was one floor model. I didn't want a floor model and I

Your habits will kill you – eventually. HOW many smokers died over 100??

I just found out the glamorous Joanna Lumley smokes up to 40 cigs a day, at 77. THEN I found out research is very quietly being done to see if smoking, when of course it doesn’t kill you, makes you live longer. I did some research of my own. I have

To lose one's trust is pretty tough ..in my opinion. What I mean by that is....I don't trust somebody unless they give me a reason not to trust them. So, my default mindset toward trust with most people is usually of neutral natural. I don't

pop-up ads

Is it only me that is getting 3 to 4 pop up ads jumping up at once on your screen with this site? For me, that is what is going on and it actually makes it very difficult to use this site. Heck, I hardly even use the site anymore, and that is ev
