McKenna critiques the FBI email scam

By

Special Agent Erick Bolt. Ah, the very name conjures up memories of the 1965 TV series, “The F.B.I.,” starring the snappily dressed Efrem Zimbalist, Jr. The very cool thing about that old…

Wear your PJs through TSA?

By

Aloha, McKenna here. Terry is off doing the TSA Two Step today, so I thought I’d do a little travel-tip post. I could give you the usual blah-blah tips like organize, wear shoes that come off easily, and all that stuff, but I’d rather talk about an innovative solution that could revolutionize the airline-travel industry.

By

Aloha, McKenna again. I’ve had this post ready for about a week, but Terry just saw Peg Brantley’s post at Indie Chicks Cafe about what annoys her. She inspired me (McKenna—but Terry’s the one who can type) to ride this wave today. What is it with dogs? Don’t get me wrong, I love dogs. But […]
