DeAnja and I weren't going to say anything until we knew for sure. You know how these things are. ...But we'd like to announce that there will be a new member in our family! Actually two new members. Alas, life from this point will never be the same.

We've decided to name them both Troy Bilt. It wouldn't have been possible without the help of our brand new Lowe's credit card and that deal for zero percent interest on purchases over $300.



Daylight fades. The new lawnmower and weedeater wait like gladiators to go forth and subdue our lawn.

A few people here at work dabble in stocks, managing trades through any of several online services. Most of us have multiple computer screens set up, ..sometimes I'll walk by and notice somebody keeping an ever cautious eye on a certain stock, or just checking in to see how much money they've lost / made since they last checked it, 4 minutes previously.



Having nay the money, having nay the time, having nay the intelligence and or arrogance to presume I could make money in the stock market, there are different, yet seemingly as thrilling graphs to monitor. Real time.



River charts can forecast delighful, albeit different dividends of their own. Roll that up in your portfolio and smoke it.
