Blog introduction

I have been threatening to do this for years. Often, my father sends my brother and me little tidbits of information that he reads. He reads a lot. He's actually a fount of knowledge. Instead of landing in our e-mail boxes and going nowhere, I thought it would be fun to track what he sends and put it online. He really is our very own Consumer Reports. The information is usually very accurate and useful, although it's not always useful to me in the moment. It's a really great way that he shows that he cares.

So many of his friends call him before they do anything whether it's producing a car, refrigerator or making an investment. I'm hoping his wisdom can help many of you.
