Lee guessed

Thanks Lee for guessing!

Here is what the lady had in her hands as she turned around the corner.

2 rolls of toilet paper. I wonder why?

Fingertips

The amount of information available at our fingertips (via the web)is amazing. fingertipsSometimes I forget (or take it for granted). Sometimes I am astounded.

Last summer I ran across a reference for a book. I couldn’t preview it online and it was an obscure enough book that when I would stop in at Barnes & Noble or other bookstore, I couldn’t find it. Today, I encountered the reference again, did a google search, ended up at google books and TADA!

Google books could radically change how I access some books – book I want to check out, but not necessarily add to my home library.

Here are a few other websites (or kind of websites) that have revolutionized the way I get information.


  • Crosswalk has awesome bible study tools that are invaluable when I’m studying a particular passage or topic.

  • Biblegateway is another cool site where I can read from the Bible. My favorite feature at this site is to be able to read from several different versions – all referenced on the same screen.

  • I’ve used the web to access reviews for particular movies my family wants to go see and/or check out tv listings.

  • One of the magazines I read sends me a digital link before I get the magazine in the mail.

  • There is the cake that my family loves, I lost the recipe. I remembered I got the recipe from a cake mix box. Went to the site and found it.


What are some websites that have revolutionized the way you get information?

Life & Rules

Last week Joe, Wendy and I were chatting about rules.

One of us follows the rules as long as they suit us, otherwise we will explain why we are breaking the rule(s).

One of us thinks rules are made to be broken.

One of us prefers to follow the rules, but will question a rule if we find it stupid or unnecessary.

What about you?
