1). One of America’s Best Kept Dirty Little “Secrets”
It can happen to anyone!! Young, old; rich, poor; Protestant, Catholic, atheist; it knows not the boundary of neighborhood good or bad; white, black, yellow, brown, green-it knows not the difference of color although it prefers African Americans who are poor; male or female it makes no difference although it prefers females between the age of 16-24.

2). Attention America: Here come the Thunderbirds!
Recently I got invited by my daughter to visit her and her family in Las Vegas and watch her husband at work. Well..Las Vegas, who could say no to that invite. Under ordinary circumstances that would have been enough. But not this visit!!

You see my son-in-law Steve goes by another name- “Dallas”. Steve is Major Steve Horton the #4 slot pilot for the United States Air Force Flight Demonstration Team-“The Thunderbirds”.

3). A New Take on DUI
When most people hear the dreaded words Driving under the Influence they see dollar signs because of the costs involved anymore. Organizations like M.A.D.D. and S.A.D.D. have done a terrific job of heightening awareness across the country on driving under the influence of alcohol. States like New Mexico have come the furthest but only because it seemed like they were a safe haven for drunk drivers.

4). Three Easy Steps to Help Protect Your Home
Back in the day “my other life” as I called it, the restaurant business was how I made my living. It didn’t take too long to learn there were only three groups of people trying to steal from you: employees, customers and suppliers.

As far as employees were concerned, being the naïve bumpkin, I thought they were all honest until “given” the opportunity to take something.

5). I'll Take Chloe and Her Stun Gun on My Team
There she was after leaving Bill Buchanan’s house, sitting in the bar area of a hotel, having successfully eluded the police during curfew in LA, when out of nowhere it happened! A semi drunk patron who had been sitting at the bar approached her not once but twice and just wouldn’t leave her alone. So what’s a heroine supposed to do? Rather than be pestered to death she invited the jerk to sit down and to see what she was doing.

6). The X Factor: How Fast Can It Ruin Your Life?
It was absolutely embarrassing! I couldn’t stay awake. After eating a normal breakfast lunch or dinner I was out like a light. No I am not talking about the Thanksgiving turkey tryptophan thing that is the brunt of so many jokes-this was not funny at all.

I tried to cope with this for over a year until one day driving in town on a busy street in broad daylight- I fell asleep at the wheel.

7). Three Steps to “Take Back the Night”
“Take Back the Night” events across the country in April are a grim reminder of just how serious a problem crime against women has become. From domestic violence to date rape, from assault in a parking lot to rapes on a college campus it seems as though women are targets of these predators wherever and whenever it pleases them-and the numbers are staggering.

8). Universal Studios Hollywood Fire: King Kong and Back to the Future Destroyed
A major fire broke out in pre-dawn hours of June 1st, quickly racing through the New York back lot area of Universal Studios Hollywood. The King Kong attraction as well as the famous Courthouse Square area (used in Back to the Future) were destroyed or severely damaged. The historic New York Street sets were also lost.

9). Come Back Later The Internet Is Full

11). The End Of The Landline
Sophisticated new phone service offerings from T-Mobile and others are the writing on the wall for the end of landline phone service as we know it today.

12). iPhone 3G Outdated On Arrival
iPhone 3G may be the toy of the minute, but the technology behind the network it runs on is already out of date and far too slow.
