Saturday Special: Please Pass the Sugar

We’ve ended the week on a deliciously sour note. If you saw my blog Thursday, you’ll know I wrote about a time when Life Handed Me Lemons… and I left you hanging. Part 2 of my story is coming next week. That’s when I get the sugar and the vodka and turn lemons into lemon […]

Saturday Special: If Only We Knew…

If you were given the power to look into your future, would you? You know the possibilities as well as I do. Fortune… Fame… Lost Love… New Love… Horrific Tragedy… Thrilling Adventure… Would you look into the future if you could? I wouldn’t. I’ll take the good experiences as pleasant surprises. And the bad, well, […]

Gold Rush Coins

Gold Rush Surprise

If you found $28,000 in coins, you’d be pretty excited, right? Now imagine finding that much cash, in the form of coins so rare, that some of them are worth about a million dollars! I think I’d pass out. That’s what happened to a couple in California, minus the passing out part (at least as […]

Saturday Special: Where Do You Hide Things?

Remember a couple days ago when I wrote about people who stash large quantities of cash around their home? (No? You can find the post HERE.) I still think a bank is the best place for cash, but for those who do need to keep cash (or other hidden items…) at home, look at this […]

Cash

Money Stashers

How much cash do you have on hand? According to the U.S. Federal Reserve, approximately $1.28 trillion dollars in cash are in circulation in the United States. Most of that is in Federal Reserve notes. One economist estimates that there’s enough cash in circulation for every American to have about $1,300.  Do you have that much […]

Where Is Madeleine McCann?

So many things can happen when we are not paying attention. Jess Kimball knows what Fatal Distraction is. Here’s a real life example. But first, a question for you.

Saturday Special: Leaving Florida Behind

Around this time of year, I prepare to leave Florida behind and return to Michigan. Like a snowbird, I’ll retreat back to Florida again once Michigan starts to get too cool for comfort — meaning below 70 degrees on a regular basis. Which brings me to the first topic in this week’s Saturday Special. 1. I […]

Florida Cartoon Map

What You Don’t See At Disney

I saw this cartoon the other day and it made me laugh. As a Florida snow bird, it’s fun to see the state from an outsider’s viewpoint. Look at central Florida on the map. Theme parks fill the whole thing! But there’s more to central Florida than Disney World. I know. It looks like a […]

Florida Fiction & Fantasy

Once upon a time in a galaxy far away, I lived in the land of the frozen tundra. Which is to say Detroit. Where the weak are killed and eaten. Where a twenty-six mile commute can take three hours to get to work and another three to get home. Where the entire month of February […]
