  • What Makes a Volunteer?

    I spent most of my weekend giving my time for a great yearly event. I didn’t have to think twice about signing up to volunteer for KidSpark. It was a great experience and thoroughly enjoyable. I wrote about it in detail yesterday. Today I want to focus on the volunteer aspect of the event. It…

  • Internet Chess

    It’s amazing all the things you can do on the Internet. Yesterday I was declared a blog addict. It’s true. I am addicted to reading, writing, posting, replying, and surfing to various blogs. If I had a computer at home I could easily see it taking up a lot of my time. Having to rely…


  • Updating My Back Up

    This blog is important to me. I really enjoying writing entires and reading your responses. I have over 100 entries now and would like to see that they are preserved.

  • A Little Blogging Difficulty

    I am having a little blogging difficulty. I am at my mom’s for the weekend and I remember that last time I was here that her computer gave me some problems. Well, it is doing it again. I don’t know why but I think the Blogger doesn’t like old Macs. I seem to have a…

  • ARGHH!

    It is a day full of arghhhs. First I get into a stupid pointless fight about business long since passed. Then I go online to get some comfort from my blogging friends, to read their blogs, and hopefully relax a bit and ECD’s blog won’t load up properly. ARGHHH! ECD has cool links that I…
