Silly Picture to Fill Space- The Green Pigs of Angry Birds




Since we are heading back to Coco Cay in The Bahamas for a second time this year (that is a joke), we thought we'd leave you with this image of the notorious pigs from Angry Birds, which I'm told is even popular in Turkey, where one might expect that the pigs would cause a problem.

Everyone should be warned that the game is very, very addictive, even more so than Starbucks coffee!

I was surprised to learn that Angry Birds was created in Finland, given the Kamikaze elements of the video game, I thought it was assuredly something Made in Japan.

For those who enjoy eating barbecue who might be in the Richmond, Va., area, Google recommends ExBilly's BarBQ which has a web site (extrabillys.com) and their phone number is (804) 282-3949.

Pirates Took Over My Facebook Page




So, we will taking a week off from this blog to try and resolve that mess and several other important matters that we tend to.

I want everyone to be fully aware that Facebook hacking, as I so rudely found out, is on the rise.

And, like every situation in which you are stranded with a flat tire on the road at 3 a.m., the folks you assume to be your pals are too busy playing "Super Mario Brothers" to try and help you!
