Here we go again! I’m going for my third job since I’ve been here in Kansas City. It’s only taken 6 months to finally get somewhere, but I’ve been patient long enough. It sounds like a really good place to start out. It’s working in the mailroom for Fidelity. I know many people who have started out in […]

Well today Seth went in for his dental surgery and it’s been quite an emotional build up to this point.
Four wisdom teeth had to be removed in the same sitting.
Ouch!!
Now, for several days leading up to today’s surgery I have been razzing him by telling him all the fun things I planned to do to […]

Okay, so being bored and in need of something yummy to knosh on for brunch today, (sue me, I felt lazy and didn’t want to cook) I went to see Scott and Ray. You might remember them better as contributors to The Tempest, were it not for the fact that they don’t write so […]

In an interview with the religious Web site beliefnet.com, Huckabee pushes back on recent critics who […]

Dear Tempest,
A few of us are planning a trip to Arizona - probably Phoenix or Tucson - and we were wondering if you could tell us anything about either of these two towns. We know you love to travel and, considering your rumored exploits, we decided to solicit your advice. Anything come to […]

Who is It?
What is It?
Where does It come from?
When will It strike next?
Watch out Chupacabra! Bigfoot beware! The Christmas Fairy has struck again! No one know’s where It comes from, who It is, or why It strikes. It has a tendency to strike anywhere at anytime. The Christmas Fairy has no bounds and will appear […]
