fundraisers are of the devil
Whenever Robbie’s school does fundraising projects, I typically ignore them or throw them out. I don’t mean to be unsupportive, it’s just that they’re usually lame and way too much money for the product they’re offering.

This is a really interesting project. This guy takes the voicemails you leave him and he writes a soundtrack to them. I can not explain this in a way that does it justice. Go check out the website and listen to a few and experience it for yourself. It’s a pretty cool idea and his compositions are not bad either....

I was at the airport, ready to leave for vacation when I got a panicked phone call from a client. She stated that the video I sent her - part of a large marketing campaign - was missing the sound. After a lot of shouting and threats on her part, I agreed to go to her office try and fix it.
After being escorted into her office, I played the video and double-checked her...

Client: I like the way you linked the image in the on-line flyer to the web page for the product. Can you do that for the new catalog?
Me: But the catalog is a print version.
Client: Yeah, I want them to be able to move to the web page as easily as they can with the flyer images.
Me: But the catalog is a print version.
Client: So? What’s the issue?

Dear Son-
I’m so grateful that you are mature and responsible enough to take care of your own laundry. It’s a great life skill. And if you choose to get married one day, maybe you’ll marry someone like me, who absolutely DESPISES laundering.
However, since you put so many clothes into one load that it takes the dryer (3) 2 hour shifts to ensure the dryness of your...
