Mercury dime

Today at work I found a 1924 Mercury Dime it is a bit worn but you would have to think it was worth a bit of money. I have no idea where to look online to see what old coins are worth but I am going to do a bit of searching to see what this little piece of silver is worth.

I find old coins from time to time and I always try to grab them up and save them, I need to get a site where I can look up the value of these old coins.

I’m Dog People

We got a dog about 6 years ago and she changed my life. I have always liked dogs and had one for several years as a kid. But when we got Dottie she was special and she has brought me so much joy I can’t begin to describe it. She is smart and has quite an attitude of royalty. I take her with me in the car as much as I can – she loves to go for a ride and just those four words “go for a ride” get her sparked up and jumping around in excitement.

David Letterman

Since the writers strike is over and David Letterman has returned to the air with live shows, he has shown his lame humor even more. I am so tired of his attempts at political humor, he has no game so to speak any more.

Now the guy I find very funny now is Craig Ferguson who follows Letterman on CBS, he is funny and very topical, I enjoy his show a lot more than Letterman.

Who to vote for

I am having a real problem deciding who to vote for in the upcoming election. My biggest issue is immigration, so I guess I lean toward John McCain but I have a real problem with his tax stand. All three of the candidates still running have good sides and bad sides, maybe we can get a third party candidate to sort out a few things and clear up who I am going to vote for.

Yard work time

With the weather turning warmer it is time to get out in the yard and get the weeds under control and to get some grass started growing. I am going to have to buy a new lawn mower this spring. Last fall, mine up and died on me. I am wanting to get a riding mower, although I have kind of a small yard – might make more sense to buy a walk behind. We’ll have to see how the cash flow is doing next month and go from there.
