I remember a point in elementary school when the teacher told us that we needed to use sources other than an encyclopedia for our research reports.  It’s sad that college students and adults are relying on an internet encyclopedia for this level of work.  This isn’t a slight against Wikipedia, but it is what it is.

Thanks to my hosting company – Blue Host

A friend asked me today who I use for hosting, and I realized that I have never given a shout out to Blue Host.  I have been with Blue Host ever since I shut down my own hosting company, and they have been great.  Great service, and when I need to get in touch with them, they are very quick to respond.  If you need good reliable web hosting, and a very reasonable price, check them out.
