I love Chick-Fil-A.  Sure, their food is good, but it’s the staff that really makes Chick-fil-A great.  Every restaurant franchise and business could learn something from them.

Everybody loves a bargain, and what can be better than getting something you want for free?  Unfortunately, free ringback tones sometimes called Answer Tones, are difficult to find; and even when a provider says they have free ringback tones there is a limited selection or a minimal monthly fee.  However, ringback tone popularity continues to [...]

Google now controls over 70% of searches. I’m a fan of Google and have been a fan for about as long as Google has been online. I love the company and their culture. Google is an innovative company and has done some great things, but… When is too big bad? One reason I love Google [...]

It’s bad enough that I can’t get on a plane without getting strip searched, but it really stinks that I can’t buy a tube of toothpaste without getting harassed by door Nazis at Wal-Mart. Of course the giant retail chain refers to them as greeters, and at one time that’s what they were, but it [...]

My wife recently sold her 2002 Honda Accord. We listed it online and had two good prospects within the first day. Both were ready to pay with cash.

It’s easy and fun to jump on the bandwagon when things are good, but it’s a lot scarier to do so when things are tanking (like right now).  But in truth you often come out far ahead when you take risk when others won’t.  If you buy some of the good stocks now you will [...]

I’m lucky enough to live in one of the best small communities in America – according to Money Magazine.  My home of Suwanee, Georgia is growing at a good pace and growing in all the right directions with new businesses, multiple new parks, greenways, and outdoor dining.  If you’re looking for a good place to [...]

I am constantly getting asked about cheap Web hosting.  I have a few favorites, but I also like to point out that cheap isn’t always best.  In the dozen or so years I’ve been hosting sites I’ve dealt with some great hosting companies, some ok hosts, and some really bad ones.  To help those of [...]
