I have a few small affiliate businesses on the side, to earn a little money from Amazon and Christian Book Distributors. New York State is (once again) killing business (and the Constitution) by forcing Amazon (and it’s subsidiaries) to charge New Yorkers sales taxes on purchases, even though there are no physical Amazon stores in [...]
The past 24 hours have been quite the thrill– but not a joy ride. My web host has been undergoing some updates and fixing server issues, and my sites had been unavailable from time to time. It was scary, because I was right in the middle of uploading! Thank you to all the people who [...]
I shake my head and wonder what on earth is going on in Central New York. This is from fellow New York blogger, Strikeslip, at Fault Lines:
…the OD [Utica's newspaper] notes that ‘Utica’ will be removed from the 2009 Boilermaker logo, and also seems to be lacking from the race’s website. Supposedly the organizers [...]

…pull drinking water from the air, gather heat and electricity from the sun, and live completely supplied for in his geodesic sustainable dome. Somewhere in the mountain near Elko, Nevada, he seems to be doing just that. According to his [...]
Yeahhhh we’re starting to suffer the effects of gasoline withdrawl around here. I can’t believe that a gallon of gas is $4.25! How I remember the good old days when gas was $1.25….. that was FOUR YEARS AGO!!!
Anyway, here’s a cute reprise for all you gas addicts out there. Soothe your DTs with some adorable [...]

The flooding in the Mid West is reminding me of the traumatic flooding we Upstate New Yorkers experienced two years ago in June and July. The southern part of the state was hit tremendously hard; my area (Central New York) [...]
It’s the stuff movies are made of: a young man stumbles upon his great-grandfather’s old papers and discovers a plan for the wildest and most ingenious invention of Victorian-era engineering.
It’s the Telectroscope, and it’s a “tunnel” that runs from London, England to New York City, New York. But is it for real? Could a tunnel [...]
I’m doing my Wordless Wednesday today. Yes, my days are all messed up this week! It’s a weird week. And continuing with my “gasoline woes” thread that I seem to be on, I present to you my virtual piggy bank! This is what he’s looking like after I bought gas this week.
Quite the sorry-looking piggy, [...]
