Have you backed up all those very important pictures you’ve taken with that fancy new smart phone? I think just about every cell phone backs up all that good stuff to a cloud nowadays. Not sure which cloud but I guess it jumps into a cloud somewhere. But what if that cloud becomes a storm

We decided on a nontraditional Christmas Dinner this year. Instead of turkey and ham for the meats, we served up some fresh venison backstrap. I cut the backstrap in 2” cubes and clobbered the meat cubes with a tenderizing hammer. Best to perform this action outside as small pieces of meat fling everywhere. That step

For the holidays I thought I might shed some light on a little Texas history close to home that some may not know. The congregation was founded in 1854 as an Orthodox Jewish kehilla and legally chartered in 1859. The Orthodox Beth Israel Congregation in Houston opened in a former house that had been converted to a synagogue. In 1874

Last week I purchased a “shock collar” on Amazon. The PATPET Dog Training Collar with Remote Rechargeable Waterproof Shock Collar for Dogs w/3 Training Modes, Beep Vibration and Shock, Up to 1000Ft Remote Range.

Appliances are expensive, and the holes they leave behind can be daunting. If brand new isn’t in your budget at the moment, consider a simple refresh instead. Our 1980’s trash compactor still works well enough but was the only beige appliance left in the kitchen. Custom cabinet replacement wasn’t feasible for us, and shelling out

Ever since I was a kid, I can remember how much I loved wearing my flannel pj’s & shirts. I couldn’t wait for the cold weather to creep in. I enjoyed watching cartoons while snuggling up on the couch in a blanket. We lived in a very old house for about a year and a

Why do people hate the iconic holiday treat Fruitcake?! Why is fruitcake a dirty word, a bad gift, a punchline? Where did it ever go wrong? Johnny Carson famously joked, “The worst Christmas gift is fruitcake… There is only one fruitcake in the entire world, and people keep sending it to each other, year after

Few weeks ago, I was at Arby’s restaurant standing in line at lunch time and deciding what to order, when I finally made my decision what to order and was ready to pay, this guy came from behind and tells me that he is going to pay for my lunch. I was surprise.!! and thinking

The first Christmas I clearly remember is when I was 6 years old. I watched Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer and Frosty the Snowman. Those were the best movies ever – and still are! My Grandfather gave me my first pocket knife. I was so proud. I had my own pocket knife! Yep! Cut my finger

The office MFP (copier, fax, printer, scanner) may not function properly after an electrical power loss. If you notice something odd about the functionality of the MFP, turn off the machine’s “Main” power switch for a minute or so.

As a kid the lead character of Annie, Annie really got on my nerves – she was to annoyingly, enthusiastically optimistic. How dare she you know? Well as I’ve matured in my life I find that I naturally gravitate towards that same personality, though hopefully not as annoyingly so . I naturally look for the
