Nice Quote

I always rec that everone stop by http://www.positive-motivational-quotes.com/

Conway could always deliver.

You don't have to be a country music fan to appreciate a singer like Conway Twitty, this guy had every lady in the crowd "tuned in".

For me it was 1983

For me it was 1983, my hair was fairly long and my thoughts were definitely SHORT. And believe me when I say, we were trying lots of things and "the lake" played a huge role. LOL.

Simply Tulips

Our dear friends in Washington state are forced to look at this every spring when they come and go from their house, take a walk, look out a window. They are surrounded. Poor things.

Here's a thought

When you wake up tommorrow or after you read this, try this out, it really works for me. Smile and say hello to everyone you see. Perform a random act of kindness for a stranger.

Give it a shot.

ACLU, You do some great work, but I don't agree this time.

The ACLU is an organization committed to preserving Human Rights for all, I don't always agree with some of their actions, but they always have my respect. Their recent stance and comments in regards to the raid on the Texas polygamist compound is a bit hard for me to swallow this time. These are not "Men of God" running that show down there, they are pedophiles.

I am a father first and foremost in my life, I have two fantastic daughters, one of them just turned 13. The thought of her being forced to marry some nasty old man or a cousin or anybody for that matter get's my jaws tight and my blood pressure rising.

This is the United States of America, let the children enjoy being children, grow up, meet Mr or Mrs Right and get married when they "see the skyrockets". Not when some child molesting "prophet" tells them it's time. Look at the whole history of Joseph Smith, it's pretty clear what got this whole thing started in the first place.

What a classic

Lots of great memories from these 2 guys. Maybe somebody should have a party in their honor, but only if you live in Arizona, preferably Mesa.

Barry McGuire. Enough said.

There really are alot of honest questions in this classic song.

Where have all those flowers gone?

What's not to love about Peter Paul and Mary?

Is a hotdog.....

Is a hotdog a "real sandwich"? What constitutes a real sandwich? Must it be 2 individual slices of bread? Let's kick this one around a bit shall we?

Call Me Dan.

I feel the need for an extra Naked day

The sun is shining, the temp is right, I have no other choice but to declare the rest of today, April 8, 2008. Naked Day. Take my advice though, leave the computer mouse out of it. Capishe?

Call Me Naked Dan.

Hello, "I am a Type A

LOL, my goodness. I was reminded today how truly silly human beings can be. I know this little fella with bad manners who likes to thump his chest, exhibit generally bad manners to all he meets that don't agree with him and he does it in the name of, "I am a Type A personality".

That cracks me up everytime. Let's call it what it is, Rude. Here that A-Man, I say you are simply an unhappy rude little guy.

You Can Call Me Dan though.

Been a little slow on posting

Sorry for the delay in posting lately, I have been very busy solving the worlds energy crisis. Look for my new cotton candy based fuel to hit the market soon.

Call Me Dan, it would mean alot to me.

Countdown to Digital

Can you hear the countdown yet? At the time of this writing, we are at 320 days closer to February 17th, 2009. What happens then? The history of Television and Technology in general adds a new chapter/era to its historical files.

Feb 17th 2009 is the day that “Broadcast Television as we have known it since 1939 will cease to exist”. Every Television Broadcaster is required by law to convert their analog signal to digital and any over-the-air televisions that have been created to pick up an analog signal will no longer work the way they have in the past. Hmmmm. You don’t even need to own a television to appreciate the historical aspects of this.

What exactly does that mean? Well, you know that little battery powered TV on your counter top that you may even take with you on road trips? It will stop working. How about those extra TV’s scattered around your house in various rooms? Yep, they will stop working too, but the good news is, you don’t have to just toss them in the trash and run out and buy a bunch of LCD or Plasma TV’s, you do have some options to keep them working.

What are my options?

Will the transition affect me?

You will need to take action before February 17, 2009 if you currently watch TV on an analog TV set that is not connected to cable, satellite or other pay TV service. If you own a television with a digital tuner or subscribe to a pay TV service, you will likely continue to receive TV programming as usual after the transition.
