Good morning Boys and Girls.Let's see. Two of my friends are under the weather, one in Detroit, one in Chicago. SweetLady's younger brother's home burned last night in Lincoln, Nebraska. I haven't felt well in a couple of days, and I just found out the planet is going to sink in to itself on Friday, leaving a black hole in the Universe that can never again be penetrated, even by light or sound. Okay, so that last one isn't real. Actually, it's scheduled for Monday. What else is going on? SweetLady's older brother and I are making a couple of the products I threatened to make early last winter to see if we can work together and check out the market locally for the things. Unfortunately, they're going to be pricey, something that wasn't really a problem in the early part of the decade in one of the wealthiest parts of Florida, but, in this economic climate? -in Des Moines, Iowa and/or Grand Rapids, Michigan? Who knows. All I know is that if I could afford to, I'd rent a good sized shop right now and start doing it up right since I THINK we might have figured out a way to make them light enough that shipping won't be the seemingly insurmountable challenge it's always been, and we have worked out the single safety issue I've always been concerned about. But, as I said, who knows. We're having a little fun working out the kinks anyway. My internal clock seems to stay on Grand Rapids time, meaning I'm up and awake an hour earlier than is necessary or even reasonable the weeks I'm here in Des Moines. Unfortunately, it also means I'm tired earlier than the rest of the tribe here. Last night, I think I was asleep by nine-thirty, and I woke up this morning just after four; which is nuts. But, what can I do? I'll start to get adjusted here in another day or so, just in time to go back to Grand Rapids. It's just an hour time difference. You wouldn't think it would be much to deal with, but I find myself unreasonably tired all the time. Hope PastorDave is enjoying his swoon in Hawaiiiiiiiiii. Be good to everyone. |

Amazing how an hour difference can change your mood, or even your day.
Hope you work out the shipping issues in a creative and sensible way that benefits all.

You don't think it's just because I'm an old codger?

See, now I like that. "I'm sorry. You go ahead with your little end of the world thing. I'm busy."
Good plan!

Well yeah, but there seems to be an opening for the pitchman job.

Vince Offer is a tough act to follow. His ShamWow ad has raised the bar for pitchmen. Please tell me you didn't invent the snuggie.
