All The Info

My grandfather’s recent passing has motivated me to move this blog back to it’s original intentions. One of my original goals was to relate stories about my life and my family’s life. My grandparents and great grandparents were somewhat colorful characters, and over the years we have quite a few stories. Some [...]

I was in a local Best Buy last week with my brother in law. I made the comment that I need a new camera. My good old Kodak Easy Share has been a great camera but I broke it last year when we were in Nebraska. Tried to put it under the [...]

Yesterday morning my grandfather, Orville Weber, passed from this world to the next.
Eighty eight years old, he was still in reasonably good health and lived on his farm with my grandmother. He had started yesterday out like any other day, went to town for parts for his lawn mower, left the house on his [...]

Wow, it’s been yet another week of political craziness. Can’t wait to see how this plays out.

Bill Clinton ‘misspoke’ this week with more incorrect information on Hillary’s Bosnia trip – seriously, who lets this guy out without a leash. Does he WANT Hill to lose?
Obama shows how arrogant he is by telling us [...]

Last night marked the return of The Office.
Honestly, I’ve got to hand it to the writers of the show. This was one of the funniest episodes yet. I particularly like the dynamic with Jim and Pam. As we all know, two main characters hooking up often kills the show. The sexual [...]
