Thursday, July 9th, 2009

This has nothing at all to do with personal finance but I thought I’d share it with you anyway. The new Life Alert commercial gives me the creeps. Watch and you’ll see what I mean:

“THIS IS LIFE ALERT! YOU HAVE BEEN DETECTED. LEAVE NOW!”
Can you imagine all the ways this technology [...]

When a Complete Stranger Approaches You in a Bookstore…

Thursday, June 25th, 2009

they probably are into multi-level marketing…lol.
Several weeks ago I was standing in the business section of my local bookstore. I glanced up just as a woman walked by. I went back to looking at the books. A couple of seconds later I see someone coming down aisle. I look up to [...]

OT: What Does “Restaurant-Quality Pasta” Mean?

Thursday, December 18th, 2008

Have you seen the Pizza Hut Tuscani Pasta commercials? I found one of the commercials on YouTube but it wasn’t the one I was thinking of.
Anyway, one of the commercials actually states, “…restaurant-quality pasta.”

I saw this in a front page article in yesterday’s Wall Street Journal (emphasis mine):
“It’s just gotten out of hand,” said 53-year-old Yvonne Brune of Des Moines, Iowa, referring to the rising cost of gasoline. Because of higher gasoline prices, Ms. Brune, who works for a printing company doing marketing on weekdays and separately as [...]

Don’t Let This Be a Metaphor of Your Retirement Plan

Tuesday, April 15th, 2008

Source: Comics.com
Just a little humor for your Tuesday afternoon.
A side note: Herman is one of my favorite comics. It’s weird how things pop to make you think about someone. Last night I was reading through the free 30-day Herman archive and laughing and crying at the same time. Why? [...]
