I recently went to my storage locker to see if there was anything in there worth selling. I didn’t have much success. My nephew told me collectibles do well on eBay, so I gave him a few pieces of sports memorabilia to try and sell. Other than that, I didn’t have much worth anything. Encyclopedias are about worthless these days, and I had a ton of those. I even had an old school computer with about as much ram as the cheap calculator I had in my wallet.

Have you ever noticed that car insurance companies conduct a credit history on someone in order to determine a price? Tell me, what does someone’s credit history have to do with car insurance? If you don’t pay your bill that month, just cancel it. It’s as simple as that. I am so tired of these companies rummaging around my personal history for reasons to charge me more for everything. The poor get it stuck to them in this country.

My daughter has been raised to be such a princess. She has always had everything her way and has never been satisfied with anything other than the best. While my son was still walking around in diapers at the age of eight, my daughter was wearing the finest fashion designers that made clothing her size, so I guess Carter’s. Anyway, my mother has been getting her golden earrings lately but they aren’t good enough because she can only wear designer jewelry. What is up with that girl?

Life insurance this and life insurance that. Every time I walk to my mailbox, it’s an offer for more life insurance. Sometimes I wonder if people want me dead, as they stick a price tag to go along with my possible death. Call me old fashioned, but I don’t care when I die or what goes where. I don’t care about my bills or credit. What will they do, hit up my son for the money? Good luck with that. The next time I get an offer for term life insurance quotes I will throw it away.

I recently got the new baseball games for the Xbox 360. I guess there are some ups and downs. The pitching system has changed and it’s atrocious. I had to revert to last years system. The batting is improved as are the visuals, but they still have the same tired announcing! Anyway, I have started my franchise with the Rays so we’ll see how that goes. I anticipate Chields will win the Cy Young.
