So, few years ago, I bought a couple of new suitcases.  This was back when you could still have two carry-on bags for free with a flight ( Read more... )

So, over the weekend I finished up the last of the fudge my mom bought me back in September, at the Natural Bridge Skylift and gift shop in Kentucky ( Read more... )

Okay, so, at one point I knew enough about HTML (or more accurately, using Frontpage) to get my homepage at http://www.akinsworld.com/ to work.  But, it doesn't work anymore...and I don;t seem to be smart enough to fix it anymore.

Well, I guess my portable ipod speakers are finally giving up the ghost.  They still seem to be working normally... however, I've noticed that when "The Devil Went Down To Georgia" comes up on my playlist, it sounds weird.
