This coaster looks to be very intimidating, but, it's a really cool ride once you're in motion!  My daughters didn't really care for it, but, I just loved it!

Yes, we did have a long ride...we drove for about eight hours---had fought rain most of the trip and decided we would have to do the park the next day since it had rained so much that first day on our way there.  We spent two nights in a motel, but, deciding to go to the park the next day (it rained a lot less) was the better choice!

Although my timing with this article is highly coincidental, the free download is a great way to experience some of the album's music, and, one of the better songs from "Paper Empire".  Don't be discouraged by the review---take a listen for yourself ;) !

Yes, they are still around and gearing up for another tour as of this weekend ;).  It's not too hard to find most of their albums---all one needs to do is look on sites such as www.amazon.com or www.ebay.com: you could even try your local best buy.  You can also keep up with Better Than Ezra happenings through their website: www.betterthanezra.com.  Welcome back, fellow ezralite!

Wow, I'm so sorry to read about all the trials you've been through because of that recent ice storm!!!!  It's really sad that insurance companies get away with this kind of stuff when the american consumer tries their best to keep up with the crazy costs of insurance premiums.  We were very lucky in regards to damage---ours was very, very minimal compared to some of the damage we witnessed after the storm.  We are very thankful that we were spared so well.  I do hope that you prevail over all of your trials----and, it really didn't bother me to read your  "rambling", LOL.  It seems as though Southern Illinoisians aren't the only ones who have suffered through crazy weather!

Though there are a lot of items that I wouldn't want to live without---including my computer and all of the peripherals---the one item I believe I cannot live without is my home. It holds all of my dreams, all of my items, all of my memories and keeps me and my family safe from the elements and together. I understand that the address or type of home may change through out the years, but, it is very true when one states "home is where the heart is".

Although I don't have children in my home and do not "work" at a regular job---I am involved in e-commerce and my children are grown, I believe I work at my desk quite a bit...even more than a regular job, sometimes. I'd love to share and write about my life and how I balance it all. It does get tough....even if you don't go to a regular nine to five job ;) !

Believe it or not, this was taken when Trent was only 3-4 months old: he is now going to be celebrating his second birthday this Friday, with a "Ben 10" birthday party the following day. It is such a joy to share pictures and see through my pictures just how much he has grown and become a little personality in his own right!

My feelings on this subject is this: who in the world really cares what Phelp's does in his spare time? Although marijuana is still illegal to the feds and in most states (not counting medical use)----it's not like he's robbing people, businesses or getting into trouble in other ways (aside from current US drug policy). It sure hasn't affected his athletic performance any, and, it is a notch for those who do smoke pot: not all pot smokers are the fabled "burnt out" couch potatos that anti-drug activists and the feds would like everyone to believe. Most pot smokers are highly functional members of society that don't break the law (other than drug policy obviously) to support their habits----most earn it!

Thank you so much for the invite to join and post my content with "Off The Shelf"---I appreciate your comments and never knew that velveeta could be used for fish bait---I will definitely be informing my significant other about the fish bait idea...lol. Hope you have a wonderful day!

Mari M., part of the reason our country is facing so much---is that we all are guilty in some ways of keeping our great nation divided in our thinking. Whether it be the campaign rhetoric that was thrown around for almost two straight years, biased social opinions, and the like. The election is over: it is now time for all US citizens (no matter which candidate/ticket was supported) to allow the fear and anger from the campaign to dissolve and support our newly elected president and congress. President-elect Obama has been transparent about who and what he is---at least most of America believes that he has; it is now time to accept this, don't you think?

Awesome tribute---however, one of the most honest voices in american comedy has been silenced, which is a big loss. Rest in peace, George!

Yes! I recently relocated to Carbondale, IL from Pontiac IL (five hours from one town to the next)...and these are pictures of my new home in Carbondale. I'm extremely happy in southern IL----it's been quite an adventure moving to my new place. U haul rental prices are crazy!

A solar charger sounds pretty cool----how does one find them? Also, when I first moved into my new home---my significant other and I decided to become more energy conscience, and installed energy efficient bulbs through out our new home. It's not only a good idea for the environment: it will also cut down on our utility bill!
