  Sometimes I just feel like a lazy bum not writing in here as often as I should.  Sometimes I feel like maybe I just shouldn't write in this diary anymore and simply go to a private diary.  I keep going back and forth on this, and I suppose at times there are certain subjects that…

  So the ordeal with the Intrepid is over and finished.  To make a long story short, Emily was sold a 2004 Intrepid last May with undisclosed frame damage.  When we went to see what value we could get for it in a trade-in, we were informed of the frame damage and followed suit with the&he...

  Wow, so I haven't been in this strange land in quite some time. For some reason I felt it was time to revisit an old friend, though.  So, here I am.  Life has been drastically changed on my side of the world.  I got married on December 30th, to the greatest wife I could ever a...
