We have all heard and used the term “Big Brother is watching” more than once.

All of us have had the experience of looking at something on the Internet and then […]
It seems like I’ve been spending a lot of time telling people no lately, and as much as I try to be accommodating to others whenever I can, I know that I’ve disappointed some folks. In the last two days alone, four different people have asked if Terry or I would look at their book […]
