Today I delivered my first Xmas gift; a brand new Samsung CLP-510 color laser printer. It was at the top of the Ashley’s wish list. She was very excited about getting it. So much so that she already blogged about it.

I tried the new spicy chicken at Church’s Chicken for the first time today. Man! I’ve been missing out. It was really good and I’m sure it’ll be my default chicken order from now on.

Because of the technology barrier, many would-be bloggers never start their blogs...
