If you have a Yahoo email account, you may notice between 0000-00-00 and 9999-99-99 at the bottom of the message. It’s a bug and usually happens during an upgrade and MySQL.

Cerebral Palsy – A Mother’s Perspective
I have always thought it would be extremely educational to pick a handicap and live with it for a day or two. We could have a national awareness day where everyone picks a handicap and tries to function with the disability as they go about their daily routines. I’m confident that society would have a [...]

Bald Eagle Facts
Had this picture of the American Bald Eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) on my memory card and am just now getting around to posting it.
