(2009/01/08) Does it seem lately that everybody wants to be green?
(2009/01/03) How weird a year was it? Here’s how weird: - O.J. actually got convicted of something. - Gasoline hit $4 a gallon _ and those were the good times.
(2009/01/03) Have you ever played the lottery? If you have, you know the drill: plunk down cash, pick your numbers and walk out with ticket in hand, hoping you’ll hit paydirt. They say somebody has to win, but realistically — statistically — it probably won’t be you.
(2008/12/27) Christmas Eve is now a stay-at-home, family occasion for Tina and David Johnson of La Crosse and their three children.
(2008/12/27) Pretty soon, there will be presents beneath your Christmas tree, and some of them will have your name on them.
(2008/12/27) Christmas is coming — time to break out some new games. Even as sales slump in many gift categories, recent figures show that game sales are holding up well. That’s probably because games are both popular and affordable.
(2008/12/20) With a little bit of effort — maybe much less than you thought — you and your family can enjoy the holiday and help save the planet at the same time.

(2008/12/20) So you chug-a-lugged some spiked egg nog, passed out and had nightmares of hearing "Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer" for the gajillionth time. Then ... you got lost in a megamall, only to be mauled by a gaudy Mannheim Steamroller.
(2008/12/20) Some vacation. You were all set to enjoy yourself. You were going to hang out with friends, play around with your new presents, eat leftovers and catch up on sleep. It was going to be an awesome winter break.

(2008/12/13) Blockbuster Inc. has launched a new service that delivers movies to your home via the Internet, as the DVD rental giant looks to expand the ways it can provide movies to customers.
(2008/12/13) You never meant to do it. You were out with friends, that’s all, just having a little cheer. The waiter brought you a glass of something bubbly, and in between reminiscing and laughter, the glass was emptied so you had another. You took a wee nip from that one until you nipped it clear to the bottom.
