July 24, 2008
Peoria, AZ Ranks number 55 of the top 100 Best Places to Live per Money Magazine. The issue coming out in August states that the sports, performing arts and preservation of open space are all qualities that helped Peoria make the list.
As a resident of Peoria I agree, this is a great place to live!

The Man Cave
April 16, 2008
Sometimes you wonder are we going forward or backwards in society?
I have a good friend and he has a Man Cave. This is his 1/2 of the garage set aside specifically for him and his projects. It is complete with the beer fridge, couch, air hockey table, TV, a/c when it gets hot and all of his tools.
Some people might say what the heck, how about a living room or game room, but you have to understand this is an area where guys like to hang-out. You don’t have to really be doing any work to appreciate the wall of tools or cool breeze blowing in the open garage door.
It is almost like sitting on the front porch in the old days before they stopped building homes with front porches. My friend knows most of his neighbors and is very welcoming when people pass by. I have enjoyed many an evening working on something or just kicking back in the man cave.
My 6 year-old son is proud to tell people he is a member of the Man Cave. There are even pictures of other Man Caves. http://www.cnn.com/2008/LIVING/04/16/mancave.irpt/index.html?eref=rss_topstories
Even one of the local radio stations here in Phoenix, AZ has a commercial about the ultimate man cave and your chance to win it.
I think there is something to be said about having a man cave.
Jimmy Buffet’s Coming to Town
April 2, 2008
This is a call out to all you Parrot Head’s. Jimmy Buffet is coming to town to offer a free concert at his famed restaurant Margaritaville at Westagte City Center on April 9,2008. There is a catch you have to win the free tickets by either visiting the restaurant or being a lucky winner from one of the media outlets.
This should be a great concert! Hopefully I will see you there!
