New License (MM #4784)

I don’t know anyone who enjoys a trip to the DMV. I’ve held a driver’s license in seven states throughout the years, and the way Tennessee does things just doesn’t work. We go to one office to get our car title, registration, and license plates. When you need a new license, you go to a…

For the most part I don’t mind shopping, except when I’m going computer shopping. For me, buying a computer is more difficult than buying a car. And it’s almost up there with the chore of buying a house. Okay, it might not be as costly or time consuming as buying a house, but for me…

Stuck Shopping (MM #1725)

I’ve talked about it before. I’m one of those guys who doesn’t mind going shopping, but I truly loathe getting stuck shopping for something you need during the holiday season. Once you get your Christmas shopping done you really don’t want to deal with all of those people. And of course something always pops up…
