I Wish I Had a Nickel For Every Time My Husband Has a "Patent" Idea...

...Remember the sitcom Home Improvement? I often refer to my husband as "Tim, the Toolman Taylor"...he loves to construct things and usually likes to create them to the extreme. He also takes pride in doing it himself versus buying something or paying someone to do it.

Lickable Ads.....EEEUUUWWW!
Monday, February 25, 2008 - 9:22am

What will they think of next? Some magazines are going to try out this strategy for marketing consumable products. Welch's is apparently going to take out full page ads in People's Magazine this month so readers can sample it's grape juice by licking the page! Whoa...that's just plain icky!

Delegates and Superdelegates....I'm so confused!

Superman, Superwoman, Super Lotto, Super Mario, Supernatural, Superficial....and then there's Superdelegate....what does that mean? Oh, and by the way, did you know there's District-level delegates, At-Large delegates, Unpledged party-leader delegates, Pledged party-leader delegates, Unpledged elected-official delegates, Pledged elected-official delegates, and Unpledged add-on delegates. Oh please!

Stocks Up......Stocks Down......

.......and round and round we go. I'm not an avid stock-watcher by any means but I did notice recently an article featuring the historical performance of a "Members Only Warehouse" stock, it was very stable and often progressive........and I know why!

Numero Uno

Did any of you get a chance to watch the finals of the Westminster Kennel Club competition? Well, it was delightful! Precocious and so precious was the baying, bouncing, and barking beagle named Uno, and he had won! He apparently was a consistent crowd favorite and as his handler indicated, "He's a people's dog". The sold-out crowd chanted his name and roared when he was pronounced the winner.

MRIs Assess Love Levels
Monday, February 11, 2008 - 10:23am

With February 14th looming near, I was encouraged to read that at the Story Brook University in New York, "functional magnetic-resonance imaging" can analyze the brain while you're looking at a photo of your true love. The machine records changes in oxygen levels of the blood feeding the brain. If there's a high level of freshly oxygenated blood in certain areas of the brain, there's an indication that the brain is more active in that area.
