I May Need An Excuse To Buy A New TV Soon

One of the biggest problems with using digital cable or satellite TV when you’re blind is that you can’t use any of the really cool features. Yeah you’ve got a gazillion stations, but if you can’t use the guide to figure out what’s on them or even where they are, it adds a degree of …

Getting A Blood Pressure Monitor Shouldn’t Raise Blood Pressure

I have to write this down in the hopes that it might help someone. So I’m going through some fun mystery health issues. Yee ha. When they’re not too bad, I can get out and about and lead a normal life. But when they rear their ugly heads and start beating on me, I’m pretty …

#TellVicEverything

I’m not sure who exactly came up with this protest, but you, my friend, are a friggin genius!

It’s Brain Splatter Time

Well, I might be able to babble a while. That last post was kind of lame. The other day, Honey by Bobby Goldsboro came on the radio. My memories of that song were that it was a kinda sappy song that made me all sad. But listening to it now, again I notice myself turning …

Now That, that Was A Birthday!

Man I’ve been a bad blogger. I don’t think I’ve written for almost a month! Um, eek? I’ll make no promises about how much I’ll have to say, but I can start with raving about how awesome my birthday was on Tuesday. I need more birthdays like that! I got up and started getting ready …

Happy Last Valentine’s Day Together, Honey!

If you want to do something a bit different for Valentine’s Day and maybe even wind up single by the end of the week, I might have just the thing for you. Why not treat your special lady or gentleman to a romantic tour of New York’s Newtown Creek Wastewater treatment plant? I can think …

That’s The Pound Of The Man, Whacking For The Chick Gang

Normally I would struggle to explain something like this to myself, but Valentine’s Day is coming up, so you’ve gotta do what you’ve gotta do to keep the love alive in a tough situation. The story, according to the authorities, is that Terry Glenn Doxey was sitting in a Cadillac across from the jail that …
