We’re going to be busy with other commitments for the next two weeks, so we probably won’t be posting here. While we are gone, please enjoy these entries from our past:
Read one of these every other day and that should last you until we return. Don’t forget, the Quotes of the Day and Motivational Quotes of the Day are still updated every day.
See you in May!

Mike and I were at CES (the Consumer Electronics Show) last week. It was an interesting experience and I enjoyed looking at all the new things that will be available to the public soon. When deciding what to focus on, I felt a strange urge to write about EVERYTHING. It was completely impossible for me to do and the futility of it all made me feel a little bit like a failure.
I was going to write an entry on the concept of innovation, so I typed the word, “new” into the quotations search. Sometimes I believe divinity talks to us through the randomness of numbers. The preceeding quotation showed up as the second quote out of 460 because the word “newspaper” has the word “new” within it. It was the exact quote I needed to quit taking myself so seriously.
I wrote about the things that interested me the most. If that’s separating the wheat from the chaff and printing the chaff, so be it. I won’t be the first editor to do so.
You can see what did make the grade here:
Hope you enjoy the new gadgets that I found interesting enough to spend a week writing about. I sure did!

Announcing yet another weblog from the creators of The Quotations Page:
Starling Travel will cover travel in general, potential travel destinations, camping, hiking, and other outdoor activities. Unlike other travel weblogs that talk about $8000 cruises and carribean island resorts, we’ll focus on simple, low-budget travel suggestions—camping, road trips, and cheap hotels.
Laura’s been posting there for a week or two already, so check it out! We hope you’ll consider this a useful site to bookmark if you regularly travel, or at least wish you did.
