Ramping down the repeat tweets
I get asked all the time why I repeat the same tweets over and over. What I’ve learned about Twitter I already knew from teaching eighth graders… People see (hear) the same thing typed (said) over and over at their own time. There are different people on the grid at different times all throughout the […]
Is your PayPal account sending payments you don’t know about?
First of all, don’t go blaming PayPal for the information I’m about to share. This is not a PayPal glitch, and PayPal could not be making payments on your behalf without your express authorization. Now that we’ve gotten that out of the way. This is what you need to know… If you’ve used PayPal to […]
Obama birth drama. Spare me.
There is really not a whole lot to say about the whole “birthers movement.” This is the bottom line… If it could have been credibly proven, without a shadow of doubt, that Barack Obama was not born on United States soil, he would have been confronted with the information right about the time the television […]
I mean, if they’d do that to my Jesus…
For as long as I can remember, I’ve been a reader of Holocaust literature. I also watch as many documentaries and/or true-to-life movies on the subject as I can find. Other human-upon-human tragedies that have captured my attention, and have me reading and watching everything I can get my hands on, are the two civil […]
Taking the Password Plunge!
For years, I’ve used essentially the same combination of passwords for all my accounts. There have been variations here and there so as not to be so predictable, but if a hacker got one of my passwords, s/he could probably get into about 10% of all my accounts. Not anymore! I have now taken the […]
Book Review: Satan’s Sisters by Star Jones, Esq.
The great thing about having a Kindle is that you can get books the first day they premiere, and that’s exactly what I did on 22 March 2011 when Star Jones‘ book, Satan’s Sisters, hit the stores. I would have finished the book in one day had it not been for other things I had […]
TAKE ME OFF YOUR LIST!!!
About a year ago I received a request on my personal Facebook account to reconnect with a person from high school who I hadn’t seen in over 20 years. I was very happy to hear from her, so I of course accepted her friend request right away. I then sent her a message telling her […]
My First Twitterview!
A few weeks ago, I was asked by the founder of Yellow Dogg Designs, Mark Bailey (@doggdaze), if he could interview me for his Women’s History Month series. Of course, I was flattered that he’d think I was substantial enough to add value to his blog, so I resoundingly said, “YES!” We exchanged email addresses, […]
Why I terminated the Kindle Competition
I’m really frustrated right now, y’all. Really. This is the second time I’ve had a Kindle Competition, and the first one went off without a hitch. Folks voted and the winner was chosen by popular vote. I used the same system this time, and the vote counters (yes, I meant to add an “S” to […]
Please save my life!
This was the subject of an email I received from an obvious scammer. Of course I didn’t open it, but I thought to myself, “If you’re that desperate, why would you be depending on me to see and open your email to save your life?” Since this person isn’t in my contacts, then it was a […]
