There was a saying, possibly uttered by Yogi Berra, that "nostalgia ain't what it used to be". That saying would be a good motto for the Family First site that we are going to visit today. Let's just say that those good old days are here again, courtesy of your local cable or s... continue reading...

I mean, they are up to Survivor 9 (after the All-Stars version), and if I hear another ad for Big Brother or Joe Schmo, I am going to lose it. But I have found a program, and a ... continue reading...

Growing up, I was amazed at the ability of the Sunday paper to feature the same magazine in both the newspapers we received. The ability to customize the same magazine for two cities at separate ends of the state was mind boggling to a 10-year old.
