Kill ‘Em with Kindness

Posted on 31 August 2011

I went to McDonalds for breakfast this morning which I admit is both nasty and gross, but for some reason I was craving a slider. Oh, that’s right you probably don’t know what a slider is; my dad calls a Sausage and Egg McMuffin a “slider” because it is so greasy it sort of “slides” [...]

Backed by What?!

Posted on 21 April 2011

So I was in the bank today making a deposit, like I do several times a week and the little Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation sticker caught my eye. We have all seen this sticker hundreds of times; it is a reminder that as long as we have no more than $250,000 in an account at a particular bank, [...]

Whiskey and Horses

Posted on 30 January 2011

I have a guy who works for me occasionally by the name of “Drunk Terry”. Terry is probably the hardest working employee or contractor I have ever had. He is always on time, he is contentious, he works steady, and doesn’t complain.  All things considered, he is the perfect employee.  Only problem though; he drinks. [...]

Drive Nice or Die

Posted on 31 January 2011

So, I am driving down the freeway the other day and this guy cuts right in front of me and slams on his brakes.  I lock up mine and then hear screeching behind me, as the car that was riding my bumper skids to avoid hitting me. Nobody wrecked. Of course not, we all deal [...]

UFCW Pays to Picket?

Posted on 28 November 2011

I was vacationing last week in California with my kids and had the occasion to visit a local “Nugget” Grocery Store in West Sacramento. When we arrived there we noticed several folks picketing outside the store. As we walked in, a rather pushy picketer attempted to make sure I got his literature. Me being the mild-mannered [...]
