I used to be a pretty smart guy. There was a time when my knowledge of home computers and applications was second to none. I bought my first PC in 1977 and it was a TRS-80 with 4K of RAM and a 16 K Tape Drive (It was called a tape drive but it really

I’m sure that many of you reading this will remember borrowing your Dad’s car. I know one person, Roger Pelletier, who should remember it better than most. The year is 1964 or 1965. Roger and I had our driver’s licenses but we did not have our own cars. Usually we were able to borrow one

A moment not to be forgotten; in the sixties there was a carpet cleaning product called “GloryTM”. It came in a spray can. To use it, one would turn the can over so that the top is towards the bottom and much like canned whipped cream, press the nozzle sideways and a ball of white

This is really one of my mother’s stories about her younger days. She told this story often as I was growing up, so I add it here to help you understand my roots. Growing up in England, Mum tells the tale of her father buying the family’s first radio. I would guess that the year

My wife Cheryl and I own a small business. It's called AMJO. Our two kids were named Amy and Jody. Maybe you can figure out where the name came from?
It was the night before Labor Day and all through the city of Cincinnati… Each Labor Day weekend, on the Sunday evening, thereof, the city of Cincinnati has its largest fireworks display of the year, and each year hundreds of thousands of humans fight for an optimal place to watch the event.

As a British born Canadian living in the USA, I’m not sure I agree with this, in some ways I could not fail to disagree with it less. Siamese twins walk into a bar in Canada and park themselves on a bar stool. One of them says to the bartender, “Don’t mind us; we’re joined

It was 2005 and Cheryl and I had owned our Mini Cooper S since early 2003. For a couple of years we had been towing that poor little car behind our motor home and traveling great distances. Cars behind motor homes suffer as they are bomarded with stone chips, mud and other debris kicked up by the

I received an email from an OLD friend the other day and I thought I’d post it here. I guess by the definition below that I’m older than dirt but I don’t [always] feel that way!
