  • A Very Clever Snail Mail Marketing Trick

    A few days ago I was looking through the mail and I saw an envelope that was addressed to me.  I scanned the return address and I thought to myself, ‘Who do I know in Connecticut?’  I couldn’t think of anyone off the top of my head, but the envelope was shaped like a greeting…

  • A Wall Covered With Names of the Dead in Union Square Station, New York City

    You may have never noticed this, but there’s a wall in Union Square station where each tile has the name of a dead person on it.  If you enter the station near Food Emporium on the corner of 14th St and 4th Ave, you have to angle off to your right after passing through the…

  • An Update on Boomer and Her Health

    I wanted to write this update to let you guys know what’s going on with Boomer, but also to say thank you for your support.  I was surprised at how quickly the donations for Boomer’s surgery rolled in, and then I was even more surprised when the donations exceeded the requested amount.  The amount requested…

  • Help Save A Kitten’s Life (Help Needed Now)

    Someone I know who reads my blog from the Philippines posted an entry on her blog yesterday that I found really disturbing and upsetting.  I felt the need to share the story here, to see if I can help her out. You see, this is a problem involving a very young cat that’s in need…

  • Astor Place Kmart Managers Are Incompetent

    Today I went over to visit my grandmother’s place.  When we left, my mother and I stopped in Kmart on Astor Place to do a little shopping. After wandering around the store a bit, we got in line to check out leave.  The line we got in was at a standstill.  The person at the…

  • NYC Sanitation Department, Killing Babies Is The Wrong Way To Protest Budget Cuts

    The news this morning made me look at the video I posted previously in a whole new light. Was this done intentionally, as part of the plan to botch the cleanup as a protest? A lot of people were saying that the cleanup after this recent blizzard was botched.  It was slow, ineffective, and lots…

  • You Might Have To Update Your Feed Subscription For This Blog. Here’s Why.

    I happened to look at my Adsense and I realized that it was still accumulating money, but in Singapore Dollars. That’s not going to work out too well for me since I’m no longer in Singapore, so I decided to change the address and country. Unfortunately, due to laws in Singapore and some other Asian…

  • Going Back To School After Almost 12 Years

    My educational record is a little crazy, I suppose.  I took classes part time from both Park University and UMUC while I was in the Army.  Between those classes, the CLEP tests I took, and the college credit value of my military training, I have about 50 or 51 credit hours.  I also have a…

  • Winter 2010 Blizzard in New York City: Part 3

    Ok, this is the third day of snowy fun and activities and things are starting to die down.  Temperatures went back up above freezing today and the snow in the roads was already turning to slush.  That’s worse than snow, really, because you’re more likely to get wet from splashes when it’s really cold out. …

  • Winter 2010 Blizzard in New York City: Part 2

    Yesterday’s blizzard started innocently enough.  When I left church it was already snowing.  It was really cool.  It was real snow, unlike the flurries from a few weeks ago.  The blizzard went all night long and then into the morning.  When I got up, we still didn’t have heat or hot water.  I don’t think…
