From the DVD player of the Coal Speaker
I would highly recommend the film “Grown Ups.” Great humor—enough for adults to get and kids to laugh at.

New York says ‘good riddance’ to 2010
Tomorrow we will all be saying good riddance to the times of our lives, the time of 2010 .. but will the days of a new age be better? With 2011 merely hours away, the sun will soon rise on a new day.

Airline travelers are angry.
Travelers say airlines’ customer service failed
