Did you ever have one of those moments where you’re watching TV and an episode or movie from a series that you really enjoy comes on, and it’s completely unrecognizable? You’re a real fan, so you’re thinking to yourself, “How could I have missed this one?” Is it new? Was it lost [...]

I heard about a thing with Cadbury Eggs, where they had gotten smaller this year. I figured it was because of the weakened U.S. dollar, and the slower economy. So my guess is that certain items, instead of increasing in price, will shrink in size.

I was thinking that there are a bunch of rich people out there who could possibly make a difference by giving most of their funds to efficient, useful causes and organizations.

It seems like “it” is really happening. Oil prices are climbing higher and higher. Eventually there could be massive gas station crowding, long lines, and long waits.
It feels like there’s potential for things to smooth out, but now hearing about the rising cost of oil, it feels instead like we’re in the calm [...]

On Monday on NBC, during “Chuck,” there was a “green tip” that sounded incredibly useful. The tip said, “40% of home energy is used when appliances are off.”
Can you believe it?! I had read somewhere before that there is always a trickle of power, but I never realized it was that much! [...]
