I decided to post a video today that I like to title, Who Cares?
Or, Really? Do you think I care? or you know…something along the lines of….that….caring….and how I DON’T and…..are they drinking?
And now I’m giving it airtime. Because like understanding major political worldwide events, this too, needs to be….questioned…and…explored…..

Let’s say you own a multi-million, multi-billion dollar a year company who supplies it’s customers with value, quality and excellent service. You believe in good solid products and have a history of returning customers time and time again. You treat your employees with respect, pay a good solid salary with benefits and maybe even a free pizza lunch on the first Friday of every month! Your company is win-win! Your company is profitable and making a difference in this world!
So why are you buying this crap to give away at holiday events?!
I live in America. In America we have lots of paper that is always flying around. Also if a burglar walks into my cubicle I can throw this glass America paperweight at him and he will die so with this gift I feel safe. And very proud of my brand. My brand is ComAir.
How exactly DOES this fortune cookie actually work? How are you expecting your employees to react? Jubilantly? Super excited? Do they instantly email their spouses to say, “Oh my god, you’ll never believe what I received today from upper management. You’ll be so…gleeful…when you see it.”
And I’m sorry, what exactly….what IS this? Looks a little….”mature” to me.
This thing, this Night-and-Day Crystal Beveled Clock is……$67!!!!!!!!!
And if you’re just feeling a little silly, goofy, down right CRAZY, you could buy a buttload of these! They’re super fun and honestly, it’s the BEST way to make big decisions in the office.

-Bill here again…
Past the seeds and fertilizers, beyond the rows of gardening and animal supplies, you’ll find a sure sign that spring has sprung in farm supply stores. Fuzzy, cute and available in a rainbow of colors, baby chickens are finding roosts around the town, from traditionally rural areas to homes in the city. Every year, a new flock of customers joins the regulars to shop for birds and lay in supplies. ”Every year, it has gotten bigger and bigger and bigger.” Most people buy eight to 10 chicks to start, about $3 a chick.
So the next time you are at the restaurant just ask your waiter or waitress about your chicken dinner. It just may be from your neighbor’s house.

Bill here…..
So last night I was invited to my first of hopefully many “poker” games. You know like the kind that you see on TV( not really). A good bunch of guys just playing cards and perhaps a few beers.
Well all I could think about was “man I hope I don’t lose all my money right” away and then have to sit there and just watch the other guys play. Just for the record I only knew one person there. So as you could imagine that would make the whole time even more awkward.
So let the games begin, the night starts with the introductions and off to the races with every style poker game know to man. Holy cow was I lost who knew that you could play so many different ways, wild this and high low that???? I was sure to lose everything in a matter of minutes.
Well 4 hours later and perhaps a six pack down I was collecting my winnings. There were the usual thanks for the invite and I hope to be at the next game but who knows? At this point they could think that I was a shark and they were robbed. So all I can say is that it was beginners luck and check out this video of a failed robbery. Maybe it will help secure my chair at the next game.

Retail Therapy is just what the doctor ordered. Ok, so I am not a doctor but still….it’s a good thing. I promise.
It’s late March and it’s muddy and cold. Hell, we are still getting snow storms! I know, I know we live in the Berkshires blah blah blah. Well I want Spring! I also NEED a day to myself to refuel. I love my kids dearly but I could use a few hours of solitude and some good old fashioned Retail Therapy.
It’s amazing what a new bag and pair of shoes can do to lift your spirit. I suggest Retail Therapy for everyone.
Here are some signs of Spring at Blue Q that may just put the Spring back into your step! Go on now. Get out to your local Blue Q Retailer and start your “therapy” today. Or if it happens to be a snowy day and you don’t want to venture outside, just click on www.blueq.com/ from the comforts of your home.
The Spring Night Zipper Pouch for all your new spring makeup.
Tote your lunch around in fashion with this lovely Pretty Print Handy Tote.
What could be more Springy than this Sunny Side Up Shoulder Tote? Birds, blooms, birds, bees oh my!
There are oodles more to check out. Get inspired and happy shopping!

It is just one of those days. You know the one when you wake up and get out of bed and step in the cats vomit. Reach down to figure out what it is and yes it’s all over your hands, then you can’t find the Cleaner than Shit hand sanitizer! Really , really is this how it’s going to be? Maybe we should just take this baby’s advise and say…

Epic Winning.
So the New York Times has officially declared that there’s a new verb in town: Sheen.
“Then we did some Charlie Sheen-ing and we were fine,” said Mr. Parker, to a roar of laughter. Added Mr. Stone: “We were just sheening our heads off.”
But what, exactly, did that mean? Drinking? A raucous pre-Oscars party involving cocaine and porn stars?
You ready for Sheen to never go away?
But it’s got to fade at some point, right? Like you haven’t heard me diss Sarah Palin lately, right? These things….ebb and flow.
But Charlie Sheen. It’s fun right now.
Sergio, in Purchasing, is so obsessed with the subject that he declared the other day that from now on, he would like to be known as “Charlie”.
I can hardly even watch the interviews myself – if I do, I watch them through my fingers like it’s a horror film.
Sheen Sheen Sheen. You bored yet?
Nope. Not yet. Check it:
