I recently went to see Jeff Dunham at the Firelake Grand Casino in Shawnee, Oklahoma. This was the first time I have ever seen his show live. He was hilarious! We laughed so hard at Achmed the Dead Terrorist that our faces hurt and our sides ached. I haven’t ever been much of a fan [...]

A new dance has been invented by the folks who bring us “You Look Nice Today” for what I would deem rhythmically challenged people. It is called the Fishstick and it doesn’t involve much in the way of movement. This might even be a dance that I could do, but I would have to practice [...]

The other night I actually had control of the remote control for the big TV in our house. This of course meant I was able to flip channels and watch commercials to my heart’s content. At least until I stumbled onto a repeat of The Last Starfighter movie. I only missed about the first 10 [...]
