With age Tuesday July 19th

A wealthy old lady decides to go on a photo safari in Africa, taking her faithful aged poodle named Cuddles, along for the company.

One day the poodle starts chasing butterflies and before long, Cuddles discovers that she’s lost. Wandering about, she notices a leopard heading rapidly in her direction with the intention of having lunch.

The old poodle thinks, “Oh, oh! I’m in deep doo-doo now!” Noticing some bones on the ground close by, she immediately settles down to chew on the bones with her back to the approaching cat. Just as the leopard is about to leap, the old …

King Arthur and the Witch Thursday April 7th

Young King Arthur was ambushed and imprisoned by the monarch of a neighboring kingdom. The monarch could have killed him but was moved by Arthur’s youth and ideals. So, the monarch offered him his freedom, as long as he could answer a very difficult question. Arthur would have a year to figure out the answer and, if after a year, he still had no answer, he would be put to death.

The question?….What do women really want? Such a question would perplex even the most knowledgeable man, and to young Arthur, it seemed an impossible query. But, since it was better …

Employee Evaluation - Just remember, it could have been worse Thursday March 10th

For everyone who has ever had or given an evaluation - just remember, it could have been worse. These are actual quotes taken from Federal Government employee performance evaluations.

1. “Since my last report, this employee has reached rock-bottom and has started to dig.”

2. “I would not allow this employee to breed.”

3. “This employee is really not so much of a has-been, but more of a definite won’t be.”

4. “Works well when under constant supervision and cornered like a rat in a trap.”

5. “When she opens her mouth, it seems that it is only to change feet.”

6. “This young lady has …

Think you know what love is? Wednesday March 2nd

A group of professionals posed this question to a group of 4 to 8 year-olds, “What does love mean?”

The answers they got were broader and deeper than anyone could have imagined. See what you think:

1. “When my grandmother got arthritis, she couldn’t bend over and paint her toenails anymore. So my grandfather does it for her all the time, even when his hands got arthritis too. That’s love.”

Rebecca - age 8

2. When someone loves you, the way they say your name is different. You just know that your name is safe in their mouth.

Billy - age 4

3. “Love is when …

Halloween Kiss Sunday October 31st

A cabbie picks up a nun. She gets into the cab, and the cab driver won’t stop staring at her.

She asks him why is he staring and he replies, “I have a question to ask you, but I don’t want to offend you.”

She answers, “My dear son, you cannot offend me. When you’re as old as I am and have been a nun as long as I have, you get a chance to see and hear just about everything. I’m sure that there’s nothing you could say or ask that I would find …

A Blonde Joke But Not What You Think! Friday October 29th

Guy gets on a plane and finds himself seated next to a cute blonde. He immediately turns to her and makes his move. “You know,” he says, “I’ve heard that flights will go quicker if you strike up a conversation with your fellow passenger. So let’s talk.”

The blonde, who had just opened her book, closes it slowly and says to the guy, “What would you like to discuss?” “Oh, I don’t know,” says the guy. “How about nuclear power?” OK,” says the blonde. “That could be an interesting topic. But let me ask you a question first. A horse, …

How To Be Creative Saturday October 16th

Want to be more creative? Here are some tips that I came across from the site gapingvoid. Most, if not all, theses tips can be applied when you want to start a business :

  • Ignore everybody.
  • The idea doesn’t have to be big. It just has to change the world.
  • Put the hours in.

  • You are responsible for your own experience.
  • Everyone is born creative; everyone is given a box of crayons in kindergarten.
  • Keep your day job.
  • Companies that squelch creativity can no longer compete with companies …
  • RSS Link: Up and Running Saturday September 11th

    After a couple of emails from my friends I finally took the time to fix the RSS feed link. You can now syndicate my blog to your favorite RSS software. Yes I know the site has been quiet lately but next week I should be publishing a couple of new stuff.

    I also added a bit of color by creating some buttons using the Button Maker. Try creating your own it’s simple and fun… Well maybe just for a minute or so ;-) .

    Why Web Users Give Up Wednesday August 25th

    Interesting article on how users will often overlook the actual location of information if another website area seems like the perfect place to look.

    Resume build from Deceivingly Strong Information Scent Costs Sales :

    Information scent refers to the extent to which users can predict what they will find if they pursue a certain path through a website. If information scent is sufficiently pungent, people are generally convinced that they’re looking in the right place. If that place doesn’t contain what they want, they’re likely to conclude that the site doesn’t offer it at all.

    The standard solution to overly strong …
