For the last year, I have tried very hard to delete all the political entries my Facebook friends have posted. I just could not read all that political rhetoric. Facebook is a wonderful way to keep up with my family and friends who live throughout this world. I had hoped that Tuesday would be the…
My husband sent me a post today and it is truly the BEST that I have read regarding the media craziness over “Ben and Jerry’s” and “Chik-Fil-A”. With my eyes cleaned out from Mr. Noble’s wise and pithy words, I was then able to enjoy eating my chicken sandwich and Chunky Monkey ice cream! “Ben…
I occasionally receive an email inviting me to take a “consumer survey”. I signed up for a couple of these because no one has ever called my home asking for my opinion and I happen to think that my opinion may, in fact, reflect “middle-road-majority” America.

If you watch very little TV, this should be a show on your list. If you watch only ____ (TBN, CNN, ESPN, etc), this should be a show on your list. In it’s seventh season this show continues to be an uplifting, positive start to my week. In the best and truest sense, the communities…
A few weeks ago, I received the “2009 Obama Agenda Survey” from the RNC (Republican National Committee). I am a registered Republican.
