Let’s chat about the tech invasion in our lives – you know, the gadgets that claim to save us time and maybe distract us a bit. But wait, what about the unsung heroes – the GPS systems? Yep, those satellites up there doing more than just chilling in orbit. Big companies have been riding the […]
“You See, What Had Happened Was”… Man, I got that line so many times as a young cop on weekend nights in bad parts of town. One guy would give us one version of the truth, his old lady, another, and the other perp would tell the story completely differently. We won’t even get into […]

I know, I know, it’s been forever since I’ve posted and I promise, I haven’t been misbehaving.
