R.I.P. Ruby Tuesday North Dartmouth (1994-2016)

It has been a while since I have written in here last. It has been too long. A lot has gone on since the beginning of 2015 but before I go any further,I would like to talk about my former workplace: Ruby Tuesday.....as of August 14,2016....Ruby Tuesday North Dartmouth has officially closed its doors for good. It has been a staple at the Dartmouth Mall for 22 years and I have worked 15 of those 22 years. I had a lot of memories there,from the Christmas parties we've had to the crazy celebrations we've held in that restaraunt. I celebrated my 18th birthday by eating at Ruby Tuesday for the 1st time there. Then I celebrated my 30th birthday there as an employee. I have spent the rest of the 90s working there as well as all in my 20s working there,too! I have made a LOT of friends while I was working there and they have been wonderful people! I will NEVER forget my experience there..which was 95% good! The only awful experience I had there was my final 3 months working there in 2010. I have witnessed 6 sports championships during my tenure there. 9/11 happened while I was working there as well. I will NEVER,EVER forget my Ruby Tuesday Dartmouth family (1995-2010)

Final meal that I bought from Ruby Tuesday Dartmouth: Buffalo Chicken Sandwich.

2015 Is Here!

Well,2015 has arrived and 2014 is no more. What will be in store for 2015? I have no clue but I will find out as I go along this year. But I will take a look back at 2014,however,and say that that 2014 wasn't as exciting as years past. Too many tragedies happening overseas,too many controversies occuring and people not thinking correctly as of late. The lowlight for me was the cancellation of the Whaling City Festival despite the fact that I put up a petition for all who want the Whaling City Festival to take place in New Bedford. But another lowlight was my grandparents moving from Lakeville to Maine,so all my relatives on my mother's side have moved out of Massachusetts. Henceforth,2014 was the first time that we spent Thanksgiving & Christmas without them. In 2014,we had a lot of snow...so much snow that I spent 3 overnights at my workplace,the Dartmouth Mall so we can shovel the sidewalks to keep people safe. Hopefully,I do not have to worry about that this winter. The Red Sox won the World Series in 2013,in 2014,dead last. Trading Jon Lester would do something like that to a team. Here are some of the highlights of 2014: My brother's wedding & my cousin Bree's wedding. I was honored to be part of both of their special days and both weddings were wonderful! Another highlight in 2014 was I got a new phone,a G2 smartphone! With that G2 Smartphone,I FINALLY got on Instagram! Plus,I found 2 sites that I can play classic video games on: Game Oldies & the Internet Arcade! Add that to the fact that I have learned how to download music onto my MP3 player! And last week on Christmas,I got a Wii U! Plus,I bought some cool stuff from Amazon.com like the Batman 1966 TV DVD set! I also visited Gillette Stadium with my family,it was really cool! Plus,I saw 5 movies this year: The LEGO Movie,TransFormers 4: Age Of Extinction,Dumb & Dumber To,Expendables 3 & Night Of The Museum 3: Secret Of The Tomb. So let us see where 2015 takes us,shall we? I hope 2015 will be good for all of you who reads this blog!

RIP Saturday Morning Cartoons

As many of you know by now,2 weeks ago CW was the final network to have Saturday morning cartoons. Now there is no more Saturday morning cartoons on network television. But the good news is that you can relive your childhood via Youtube (depending on the copyright) and on DVD. As a kid growing up in the '80s,I usually wake up,get my favorite cereal and turn on the TV to watch them. I liked a lot of cartoons in the 80s but in the 90s,there was only one show I will watch on Saturday mornings: Power Rangers,thanks to the magic of VCR timers while I am working,LOL! I have some of the 80s cartoons on DVD and even though I work on Saturday mornings now,I can relive those days considering that Saturday morning cartoons are no longer but there are a couple of cable channels that still air cartoons like Cartoon Network and Nickelodeon but they do not air the classics from back in the day. Thank goodness for the Internet,LOL!
