2010 has been a roller coaster year for me. As Charles Dickens once wrote, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of [...]

Okay, okay, I know this is a random rant…and that while I’m no surgeon, I too don’t really need a knight in shining whatever because I do the saving and err…I can do my own saving but but but….tonight I so want one to just make things better. Today I had to go get my [...]
