06/25/12Saddling up for a P&N AdventureHowdy and yeehaw! I won’t be writing a blog next week for you because I’m about to saddle up the SUV and kiss my hubby and doggies and job responsibilities goodbye for a spell. This Thursday, I’ll be trading Midwestern plains for Western mountains, and riding shotgun will be my faithful sidekick Patrick, 11. (He’ll be the one in the dark sunglasses and ball cap, toting a toy rifle.) |

06/12/12Ancestry.com: Identity theft takes on a whole new personaI recently entered into a spirited email discussion with a “cousin” (seven generations removed) who was annoyed that my database of 35,000+ individuals related to Gov. John Webster by blood or marriage is classified “private” versus “public” on Ancestry.com. “You are a pain in the butt,” she whined. “Every time I turn around, I have to email you for info instead of just looking it up. You are really slowing me down.” Posted at 12:00 AM | Permalink | Comments: 4 |

06/05/12Who gives a flying fish whether or not a neighbor voted?If you check (as you can), you’ll see I have voted in every federal and state election since my 18th birthday. Every election, that is, except one – a primary wherein my party’s candidates were both the same flavor, though they’d spent millions pretending otherwise. However, even from this lofty height, I am infuriated by the circulating lists of voting behavior for a recent election. |
