Cheap Entertainment on a Snowy Day

Well, today the snow is falling and falling.  So much in fact that visibility is next to zero - so there is no way that I will be traveling today.  Instead I have decided to stay home and amuse myself.
Sure, I could clean the house, but how much fun is that?  Besides, it doesn’t hurt […]

Take The High Road to Debt Repayment

Now, there are a lot of people that are over their heads in debt.  Sometimes they are so far in debt that there seems that there is no way out.  Quite a few of these people go bankrupt to get rid of their debt - but then creditors and their credit score suffer immensely.
I urge […]

Breath of Fresh Air

Now, I just want to take a minute to talk about dog food factories and production.  I am by no means a "dog food technician" (is that what people that make dog food are called?) or anything like that.  But I do have a story (and a solution) involving dog food.
You see, last summer I […]

Chosen to Speak at my Brother’s Wedding

My brother just asked me to be his best man at his wedding.  Now how could I turn that up?  Seriously, it only took me a split second to say yes.  I have never been a best man before, so I had to ask what my responsibilities were.  Almost everything was a no-brainer until we […]

Better than a Handshake: Well Written Resumes

I have had the opportunity to hire a few people in my lifetime.  It all starts by looking over their resumes and deciding whether or not it would be worth taking the time to interview them.  Sadly, most of their resumes don’t make the cut.
Quite a few of the resumes are rejected because you can […]

Claiming Our Prize: A Trip to Orlando

We recently won a prize on our local radio station: a trip to Orlando.  I was so excited to find out I had won - I jumped around and screamed like crazy!
After the excitement wore off, I realized I had no idea what was in Orlando - I have never been there.  I decided to […]

Expanding My Home Business

As some of you know, I have a home business.  Needless to say, the past year or so, the business has grown beyond my ability to do it all myself.  So, I am going to hire my first employee - and I need to setup some office space for them.
Unfortunately, I don’t have any extra […]

Cause of Senior Poverty: Health Issues

One of the causes for senior poverty in retirement is health issues.  The problem is that they may appear at any time - with different severities.  Now, the minor health problems are usually relatively cheap, but when it comes to the major health problems, you need to watch out!
You see, as much as 70 % […]

Power to Change is in Your Hands

Well, you might think that I am talking about changing your life or who you are - but let me know I am not.  Instead what I am talking about it the phone I saw in the mobile shop I went to today.
Now, I am not big on bells and whistles packed into my mobile […]

Some Site Renovation in Order

I have been a member of MySpace for the past few years, but it wasn’t until today that my son told me my layout sucked and I should have something better.  He showed me a few of his favorite Myspace layouts and it was at that point that I realized what he meant - my […]
