“I don’t like to talk on the phone”, someone will say.  “You can text me, twitter me, email me, send a royal messenger but please for the love of all that is holy and unholy, do not call me on the phone!”.   I find myself nodding in agreement because I too would rath...

Aaaaand, we’re back!  Last week, I took a mini-break however since Snackie Sunday is approaching its TWO YEAR ANNIVERSARY (whaaaat?), I thought I better get with it and start posting again.  Which reminds me…I’ve totally been numbering the Snackie Sundays incorrectly and have no ...

If you would have asked me what defines American culture just a week ago, I would have prattled on about apple pie,  folk art, fast food and maybe The Grand Canyon.  The thing is that I’m always quick to go for what has been drilled into my head for all of these years.  But here’s the...
