Reality Bites
How many divorced couples do you know? Probably quite a few. And how many of them were remarried when their scrumptiously cute twin daughters plotted to get their parents’ new lovers out of the way to make them fall in love all over again? (more…)
Nub and Estep Make News in Different Ways
I suppose if lived anywhere but Avery County these days, I would be going through political withdrawal by now. We’re waiting until Thursday to find out when we’re going to have our next set of elections, so everything has kind of been on hold these past couple of weeks. However, that doesn’t mean that nothing has been going on in the political realm.

A Day in the Trip of a Disney World Commando 2
No problems through a queued security station at the Studios…I have no bags! No time for even a waist pack; contact drops and wallet are all the necessary equipment. A walk-on for Tower of Terror, another for Rock ’N’ Roller Coaster…this may be a commando’s paradise, but there are always ways to cut corners, always a way to pick up those extra rides at the end of the day, so I keep the pace as swift as I can.

Kindergarten starts this fall and I’m worried this will continue. How can I make him more comfortable in a group setting? Help!
Word 97′s Automatic Text Features
Have you ever been typing a numbered list in Word, hit Enter, and the next number automatically appeared on the following line — even if you didn’t want that line to be numbered? Have you ever wanted to start a line with a lowercase letter and Word automatically capitalized it? Have you ever tried to type a word and Word changed it, assuming you meant something else? These features were intended to be helpful, but they can end up being a nuisance. If you find them annoying, you don’t have to just live with them — Microsoft has made it possible to turn them on or off.
Millions Predicted to Put Their Virtual Faith in the Web
Millions predicted to put their virtual faith in the Web. Churches provide information and services for those outside the flock. Catholic church names St. Isidore as patron saint of the Internet.
What are YOUR religious leanings? You may think you know based on your upbringing or the church you attend, but you may not know for sure until you use the Belief-O-Matic. I was raised and confirmed a Catholic, but according to this interactive web page at Beliefnet.com I have turned into a Liberal Quaker (or possibly an Orthodox Quaker — I scored 100% on each). Lowest on my list was, you guessed it, Catholicism. Go figure.
Аmazing actors
The Daytime Emmy nominations were announced and the only actor to get a nomination this year was Peter Bergman(Jack). Peter had a great year and is one of the best actors in all of daytime but there were many other actors on the show who deserved recognition too. (more…)
