You’re probably asking what the heck a sneeze page is.
Sneeze pages are an accounting of blog posts that you want to always try to make available to your visitors. In essence, if you have written consistently on your blog for just a year, you have posts that most people are never going [...]

Tonight I went with my wife to a financial planner. She’s been talking about getting advice on a retirement plan for herself, and who am I to stand in the way, right? I have a financial planner, though, and didn’t want to go, but she kept telling me this guy was insisting that [...]

Back on November 6th, I wrote on this blog that I was going on insulin for the first time due to diabetes. I was thinking it was time for an update; trust me, things just never go properly with me.

I don’t make these types of pitches often, but it’s time for one. I’m always trying to increase the subscriber base for my newsletter.

He was about 3 years older than me, but [...]
