March 2, 2013 Now that I'm awake enough and well enough it's time to write a post. By the looks of things, it was a busy Friday at the Moose behind the scenes. Even though I was quite sick and still slightly sick, I feel guilty for staying home Friday and I truly thank Mac, Andy and the others who filled in for me both on the air and off the air.
March 2, 2013 This is a mind-boggling statistic. In 2012, nearly 1400 fragrances were launched. On average, that's nearly four new scents a day! Really? Are there that many pleasing smells to be had in a bottle? And, how would they smell all mixed together? Well, the experiment has been done!
March 1, 2013 Here is some good news! Joe-4-Oil, the Citizens Energy Oil Heat Program, is giving Spectrum Generations access for 250 applications for a one-time delivery of 100 gallons of home heating oil designated for central Maine families. It is all based on some income guidelines.
February 28, 2013 When Marie-Anne and I dined at an Olive Garden in Kissimmee Florida a few weeks ago, I've gotta tell ya, the lay of the land was far better than the one we have here in Augusta.

February 27, 2013 Bet that got your attention. Yes, internet users who illegally share music, movies or TV may soon get warning notices from their service providers that they are violating the law.
February 26, 2013 Coolest kid ever, animal lover and recent brown belt, Derek Beaulieu of China took 2nd place in Kata for the 7-9 Boys Intermediate Division for the 2012 Season. Derek trains at United Martial Arts Academies of Augusta.
February 26, 2013 It is no big secret that my interests are best described as eclectic. My tastes in just about everything are all over the place. So, while in the Army-Navy store in Belfast, I was beside-myself happy with this little discovery. It is an Army Survival Manual! The date on the front is 1970, but inside it is dated from 1957. It is a great read and some very cool skills.
Drink up.
February 25, 2013 I wish I had known this little tidbit before I went on vacation and stayed on one of the upper floors of our hotel because it could have, selfishly, saved us a little time AND it's kind of neat (if it works)
February 23, 2013 Like the alliteration in my headline? I sure did! And those words sum up my wicked good day. Mike Gagne, my good friend and gun guru, and I headed north to Holden this morning to the Maine Military Supply Store to look around at "stuff," like guns and targets and the like.
