Justin Judges Sybil
So I get the enviable job of deciding just how Sybil is going to entertain herself during her furlough.
And what a job. There have been some great suggestions. Everything from heavy drinking to adopting livestock.And I’m loknig forward to see what is suggested in subsequent week. But this week’s challenge will be:
I dare you to [...]
Sybil, Disobedient
Forgive the groan-inducing title, but I had to find a way to work it in, if just to prove I have a sense of humor about the many, many MANY ways my name has been misused (Sybil Rights, Sybil Law, Simba, Nipple– yes, nipple).
Having given my current place of employment notice that I am leaving [...]
Layoffs: Getting Too Close To Ignore
Unless you have been living on a rock, or maybe in another dimension where everyone is making lots of money, you know that the economy is in the crapper. Even with the stimulus billed passed, many think it won’t work, and even if it does work, it will still take time. Average Americans are scared about their [...]
The Season of Lent and my Diet Woes
Yesterday was Ash Wednesday, and I truly meant to write this post yesterday, but I was on my couch all day with a cold. Needless to say, I didn’t feel like writing. For those of the non Catholic religion types and are unfamiliar with what Ash Wednesday is, a quick synopsis. It [...]
Are You a Vitamin Tramp?
Raise your hand if you wanted to shout out that you’re a Flintstones’ kid. C’mon, you know you did.

I saw this on the web today and I wanted to share it. It is awesome!
Viva La Grammys? Or Death to All its Viewers…
SoI decided to blog the Grammys because I figured it was better to take my frustration out on this blog, and on all of you, than to keep it inside. In short, I wanted to smack at least half of the attendees/performers. Let’s roll, kids!
So first up is Bono, or as he’s known to…uh…himself…God. I [...]

Digital TV on Pause
It’s February, and this was supposed to be the month that all off air broadcast of TV was going to switch to digital signals. But wait, the government is delaying the cut over date, by six months. Why? Because there wasn’t enough money to help people get digital converter boxes, and because the signal isn’t [...]
Spend Baby Spend!!!
The economy is bleak, you might lose your job, and you are holding on to every penny. But that isn’t going to help anything. To most of us, the rise and fall of large sums of money effects us in a very abstract way. In the past couple of years, the only thing the vast [...]
