March 12th, 2008 · No Comments
I’ve never really liked Bubba’s radio show back when he was on 98 Rock. I’m just not into the shock jock thing. Honestly, I’m more of an NPR girl. But they’ve been doing their fundraiser this week, and I can’t put up with the guilt trip anymore. So, I tried out Bubba’s new show on […]

Jessica was back in town to help settle the pissing match between California and Florida over issues like judicial custody and other stupid stuff. It’s petty bureaucratic crap when they should be focusing on doing what is best for this woman.
From what I’ve heard through the grapevine, it was these […]

March 10th, 2008 · No Comments
I live about a quarter-mile from US 19. I work right on US 19. If I wanted to take a bus from my house to my office I would need to change busses three times.
