Tiger Woods Crash Photos

Posted: 30th November 2009 by T.F.P. in Current Events

Will the public ever get the true story behind the Tiger Woods car crash? Did wife Elin Nordegren really “go ghetto” on him as some reports indicate? It’s doubtful. There’s nothing but silence from the Woods camp (aside from a generic website posting or two), so everyone is left to just speculate. The story is [...]

Bears at Vikings ’09

Posted: 29th November 2009 by T.F.P. in Sports

I didn’t even need to watch the second half to figure out where this game was headed. Another poor effort from the Bears will yield their fourth consecutive loss, this time at the hands of Brett Favre and the Minnesota Vikings. I don’t know the final score because it’s not over yet, but it was [...]

New Super Mario Bros. Wii

I love the Mario Bros. franchise, and own a bunch of games featuring Mario, Luigi, and friends like Princess Peach, Daisy, Yoshi, Donkey Kong, Toad, and others. The games are challenging, yet not impossible, and just a lot of fun to play. Plus, they give me a great opportunity to spend some quality time with [...]

Thanksgiving ’09

Posted: 27th November 2009 by T.F.P. in Life

When Thanksgiving rolls around, I usually trot out a post listing some things that I’m thankful for. The list involves the standard things like stable jobs, a good home, and healthy family members. I am indeed thankful for all those things this year as well. But this year I think I’m most thankful for a [...]

Marian Hossa!!!

What a sweet debut for Marian Hossa, the $62-million free agent who played his first game for the Blackhawks after recovering from shoulder surgery. Hossa scored two goals, including a pretty short-hander, to help the Hawks bury the Sharks 7-2. The Blackhawks have now won 8 in a row, and look like the team to [...]

Toyota replacing gas pedals

Posted: 25th November 2009 by T.F.P. in Current Events

You’ve probably heard that some Toyota owners have experienced problems with vehicle gas pedals. Some pedals from the 2007-10 model year Camry, 2005-10 Toyota Avalon, 2004-09 Prius, 2005-10 Toyota Tacoma, 2007-10 Toyota Tundra, 2007-10 Lexus ES350 and 2006-10 Lexus IS250/350 can get stuck on floor mats, causing acceleration and high-speed crashes. My mom has a [...]

George Foreman Grill with Bun Warmer

Posted: 24th November 2009 by T.F.P. in Products

I bought my first George Foreman Grill, one of the basic “Lean, Mean Grilling Machine” models, about seven years ago. I used the grill regularly for chicken, steak, and burgers, and absolutely loved it! The double-plate design makes for very even and quick cooking, and the nonstick coating made cleanup a breeze. Plus, the angled [...]
