I’ve made two or three recent purchases online in recent weeks — in both cases, I bought books. In one instance, I found a great price on a used copy of a book I wanted at Amazon books. In another case, I found the best deal I could as a “Buy It Now” option on [...]

What does our watch battery misadventure say about our ‘consumeristic’ society?
Time today for a big rant about a little thing — finding a watch battery. Are my wife and I the only people who keep wristwatches running long enough to need new batteries? I think not, but maybe that’s true.

Remember ‘A Christmas Story’? Here’s a place that sells that Daisy BB rifle
This “Useful Website” hobby equipment site was just too good to pass up. If you saw the wonderful movie classic, “A Christmas Story,” this past holiday season, you know what my title refers to — the 1938 Daisy Red Ryder BB rifle that “Ralphie” lusted for in the movie. And I just found out about [...]

Sometimes reading the news all day can really get you down? How do you unwind? Do you whip out the old golf clubs and hit the links? Personally, I pick up a good book or get out the old knitting needles and knit away at a sweater or afghan.
