Sweet Potato…Yams?

November 19th, 2008 by Josh Michael

Several nights ago I went grocery shopping and found that the yams were on sale for 55 cents a pound.  Getting into the mood of the season, I picked some up for the family.  For a while now, I have been wondering why some people say sweet potatoes, some say yams, and some say that [...]

No Ties, Please.

November 16th, 2008 by Derek "Bob" Evans

On Sunday, The Cincinnati Bengals and Philadelphia Eagles had a final score of 13-13. Each team ended with the same score, resulting in a tie. Last time I checked, this is considered BORING…. this is more boring than tie shopping.
How could this be?
Fans pay money to see one of the teams win the game. The [...]

November 14th, 2008 by Derek "Bob" Evans

What started out as a hobby, turned into my own side business. I have been blessed to be a DJ for nearly seven years now.

I don’t know if [...]

Recently I took a business trip out of town. Here are some of my thoughts from the trip.

- How come anytime you go back to a hotel [...]

Did anyone see that?

The other day during lunch, I was eating leftover spaghetti. I can not think of anything better than spaghetti re-heated in the microwave. During the meal, my nose began to itch. I calmly scratched it, being cautious not to interrupt The Andy Griffith show on television. With great patience, I continued to scratch my nose [...]
