Needless to say (but as always - saying it anyway), the headline drew me in. I immediately wanted to assess the credibility of the research as I [...]

The house that Joe built…
Let me say for the record, "I am FED UP with the fall-out from Joe Chapman." I was going to say, "I am mad as hell and I am not going to take it anymore", but someone else already used that line in a movie. Whew, I needed to get that off my chest. I have been on [...]
