Adam Plimmer is No Longer 2

Since I’m still getting some traffic from people looking for Adam Plimmer, I figured I’d let everyone know that Adam Plimmer has closed his store. I wonder if he closed down the store as a result of the lack of business since he threw his raging fit back in February. In his little “Goodbye Note” ...

Adam Plimmer is Adam Paul? 12

Just when you thought Adam Plimmer’s career as an Optician was finished, he has shown his persistence by changing the sign on his store from “King West Opticians” to “Adam Paul & Associates Opticians”.

Inconsiderate ignorance

I have been reading through CNN anchor Anderson Cooper’s blog, and he asked his viewers to share their comments.

From this Yahoo News article, referring to a recent White House news conference along with Tony Blair.

8 bodies were discovered in a field just west of St. Thomas Ontario, and the police are investigating a mass murder.
