This pic was sent to me recently from a friend in Denmark. She was mainly excited about the fact that she could fix a meal outside as they have been having a pretty bad winter. Now, the grill is pretty cool, but…. those hot dog buns! I want to either buy some or at least figure out how to core the center of a baguette. This will be the only time I will ever adhere to the policy of

From Gary Fineout’s The Fine Print blog: State Sen. Alex Villalobos, R-Miami, is giving up. For the last several years Villalobos has tried to push a bill through the Florida Legislature that would have required those who appear before legislative committees to swear to tell the truth. The legislation was an outgrowth of the contentious 2003 series of special sessions on medical malpractice

I realize that I may not eat lunch in the finest of restaurants. My choice of places has gone wrong recently. This was on the wall of the BBQ place today. What am I missing? This is sick, sad, weird, strange and I really don't understand it. Must be a Southern Thing.

The myth of “Small Business”

2009-01-18T18:55:00.001-05:00

I don’t know how many times I’ve yelled at the TV when the topic has been “Small Business”. I know it’s not a good sign of mental stability when you talk to your TV but at least I don’t throw things at it or shoot it. Here’s a prime example that dates back to 2001. “In a ceremony at the Defense Information Systems Agency today, representatives of the Department of Defense and a

Get ready for a rant, OK? I have an online business and customer service is important to me. We don't use a complicated voice mail system, just an answering machine when we're not there. We really try to get back to our callers soon but.... we can't call people on the west coast because it's three hours earlier and I've woken them up before. Man, do they get grumpy.
