Walls Old Fashioned Ice Cream & Fudge

Fudge.  Not something we eat every day, but when we want it, oh do we want it!  This morning was one such day – I simply wanted fudge.  Last night I actually thought about making some before I realized I’m … Continue reading

BP Oil Spill: Can I have a crack at fixing the problem?

Okay, maybe I’m feeling a little bit “Jack Bauer,” but dammit, someone needs to step up and solve this BP Oil Leak. It’s pumping tons of oil into the ocean, killing millions of creatures (while providing food to others oddly enough), and making a thriving fishing industry stop dead in it’s tracks.

So, here’s my plan to solve the issue. Bomb the leak site, resulting in a collapse of the shaft, sealing the well. I’m sorry BP won’t be able to get any oil out of it anymore, but hey, they’ve tried everything to capture the oil instead of just FIX the spewing open oil well. We have explosive experts who can do anything. Why not this?

Facebook Flashbacks… But was I sexy!

This morning a Facebook email greeted me, informing me I’d been tagged in a photo. Really? Well, the picture is (don’t freak out!) from 1979. Nearly 30 years ago. Where does the time go? Continue reading

Riptide 2.0 – You Rock!

Riptide 2.0 features Lonny Paul Time-Lapse VideoMiami’s New Times is one of my most regularly read publications. I enjoy their wit, humor and ability to be real without over editing and excessive guidelines as to language and use of profanity. When a co-worker sent me an email saying “One of your videos is on NewTimes” I was like, “What?” Continue reading

Venting Part Duex: What is wrong with people?

Ever have a project a work that piqued your interest? Made you want to work a little bit harder to help someone else that you could lend a helping hand too?

Ya, I’ve been there – in fact, I was there today – trying to make a innocent little campaign for another department something special – then you realize you are being used. The project manager leaves at 4PM while you look aghast – not understanding why he doesn’t want to see the project through. Then, his boss passes by and gives you even more reason not to help – after they threaten serious disciplinary action on one of their team members just for working on what the project manager’s boss terms ‘your project.’

First, not my project – it’s for another department – and I’m only trying to assist you in maximizing your ROI. But that – I guess – isn’t appreciated. Continue reading

Just a Really Really Bad Day

Ever have one of those days where nothing seemed to go right? Where you start the day off bright-eyed and busy-tailed and even excited about the day ahead – including a conversation with the Boss – and end up stepping in a pile of shit before the day is half over. That was my day today and it only seemed to get “better”. Continue reading

Google, oh Google – do you know too much?

Okay, I admit Google is my preference for, well, pretty much everything I want to find. Haven’t used a different search engine in months, perhaps longer. But tonight, for some reason, I realized how much Google really does know about … Continue reading
