Looking for something original for your Thanksgiving gathering? Try Jones’ holiday sodas. As far back as 2003, the soda gurus have bottled tasty concoctions such as turkey and gravy, mashed potatoes and butter, cranberry, green bean casserole, and fruitcake sodas. I’m not sure if any local stores carry the seasonal treats, but I do know […]
I still like toys, especially the radio control type. I have a small helicopter but the rechargeable battery will no longer hold a charge. It was a nice little toy that I could fly around the house. Kind of miss being able to fly it around. I’ve had larger flying toys, but they generally required

Well, it looks like I was somehow able to get a day of work in this week. Apparently the teacher was gone yesterday too, and they didn’t use the same sub which left the door open for yours truly. I am writing this post with a headache, so don’t be too surprised if it turns

While working today, the boss and I were doing up cheese trays for the holiday. She asked my opinion on the festivity of her trays. Some of them were appropriate; however, there were a few of the most attrocious looking things I have ever seen. They kind of reminded me of some of the place

This past weekend saw a feat never before accomplished by an Ohio State University football team. The Buckeyes successfully defeated the dreaded “Team from the North” for the fifth year in a row (42-7). How many rivalries can actually attest to the fact that a coach’s career seemingly hinges upon one game year after year.

What does a sub when it’s Thanksgiving week and three of four districts he’s signed up in is off all week? Catch up on TV of course 🙂 . For the fourth district it is near impossible to get a job off the web when few show up (teachers must have been told to not
WOW… One month from today is one of the most perfect nights of the year… better get started. I’m sure I can fill my blog with many a holiday tale by then. This one was prompted by an email that was sent to me which I forward to a bunch of people. A list of

Once again I caught a movie that I definitely should have seen on the big screen (darn Speed Racer, anyway). Iron Man positively ranks up there with my all-time favorite superhero movies (need I say which is number one… and it is NOT Howard the Duck). I knew absolutely nothing about billionaire industrialist Tony Stark and
