I have a bounty of funnies today — all football related. These are all courtesy of my co-workers: An Auburn math professor comes in all ticked off and says, “You guys did very poorly on my test yesterday. I will not be surprised if half of you fail my class!” A student raises his hand [...]
Boy, such a flurry of events have been whirling around me and my kin lately! An American Visit Friday I chaperoned Jessie’s class field trip to American Village in Montevallo. Even with the bad weather coming through (tornadoes and rain galore, yuck!), we still had a very good time. And I tell ya, I really [...]

I decided to upgrade my other problem-child second most troublesome blog, my recipe site (Now We’re Cookin’). Overall, WPAU is impressive. It automates some of the most tedious parts of the upgrade process and I think it [...]
