Today's offering will be a little different. This is a clip from a performance on the show America's Got Talent by the performance group Stomp Out Loud. I've wanted to see these guys in person for a while now but I've never had the chance.

I thought I'd try out this Music Monday thing with "Online" by Braid Paisley. Yes, the song is country so it might give some of you heart attacks but it's a great song and the video is hilarious ( Read more... )

For now I've decided to close down my book blog. I'll leave it up but I won't be making any posts to it for a while. I think a break will do me good then I can decide if I want to start it back up again.

As some of you know, I have a book blog on blogspot.com called The Deckled Edge (link at the top of my page). I'm coming up on my one-year anniversary and frankly I'm dreading it a little. The last month or so I've had difficulty keeping it updated. First, the flooding and other factors caused problems in posting then I sort of lost the desire ( Read more... )

I found out from my dad the other day that AOL has ended browser support for Netscape.  No new software will be written and the current software will not be supported as well.  Basically this means I have to find a new internert browser.  There's no way in hell I'll use IE so I guess I'm going with Firefox, which I've never used.  We'll see how it ( Read more... )
