Remember how in the movies there were always rules to follow. If the
music turned sinister there was always going to be something bad
happening, if the clock struck, watch out! And if the star was
slicking back his hair, you know he was going to be driving a convertible
in a few moments! Well, we've got about a thousand of those rules
all listed for your as Movie Cliches. I really laughed as I went
through them. Well,
nothing worse than this can happen!

I've stood by a piece of art valued at over 140,000,000.00. Yes a
hundred and forty MILLION American Dollars! And me without my
graffiti spray can...NO NO Just a joke! It was an awesome
experience. However there's an entirely different kind of art
that you can't even see with a hand held magnifying glass.
It's art placed on Micro Chips, the fancy electronic devices that power
our computers, and phones and all sorts of electrical devices. Left
there for years they sort of got discovered in 1999 and now folks are
looking for them everywhere. Here's an art Gallery that shows some
of the best! Show
me the Itty Bitty Art It sure fulfills the line, "If you can see this
you're WAY TO CLOSE!!

Some folks mark the years by their birthdays, some by the holidays, but we
really should mark them by the STATE OF THE UNION address. Is it
