Being an American Business

…means that you use American workers: Regardless of which area of the America’s they come from or reside - right?!?. I took this over a year ago at Rice to Riches in NYC and never posted so it’s a bit old:

Nice Sombreros Americanos!

Motivation

Everyone needs a little insight so why not get it from a poster like all the rest of corporate America:

.gallery-item {

margin-top: 10px;
text-align: center;
width: 33%; }
.gallery img {
border: 2px solid #cfcfcf;
}
.gallery-caption {
margin-left: 0;

Why smart people defend dumb ideas candidates

I was thinking why are there so many people in this country backing a candidate that I find obnoxious, impetuous, reckless and unqualified. I used to say that the American general public was perpetually stupid but that’s a little brash. Maybe many of these people are really smart but just make stupid decisions. [...]

A water sommelier?

Now this is getting ridiculous. The absurdity is far reaching including, diluting desalinated seawater from Hawaii (at $33.50 for a two-ounce bottle, what type of cheap water do they add to dilute it) and Bling H2O is marketing a “luxury” brand of water that costs over a million dollars of what you get from [...]

New Yorkers Don’t Fawn Over Celebrity

NYC is the most populous city in the united states, with more people in closer proximity than in any other city. This living situation begets the reduction of personal space in public places - subways, sidewalks, department stores, and nightlife spots.
I spend the majority of my public hours shoulder to shoulder with [...]

Paying more at the Grocer… WTF!!!

Yes, food prices have been driving up here in NY in the last year. Just the other day I noted my Chipotle burrito was now $7.50 instead of the $5.60 I had a little over a year ago. My OJ, now $5 a quart, and apparently all veggies, fruits and now rice are [...]

The Gas Tax Hustle

If you’re listening to the political hype about the “Gas Tax Holiday” you know about this program that’s proposed initially by McCain (video) and backed by McCain and Hillary (opposed by Obama), which offers a break (3 months) from paying the taxes on gasoline through the summer - designed on the surface to ease the [...]

Fox brings us the “news” that’s most important

E.D. Hill of Fox news had a 5+ minute segment on a Texas woman, Sheyla Hershey, who enlarged her breasts eight times to the size of 34 FFF. Appropriately she is in Brazil’s Guinness Book of World Records for having the largest breast implant, however, in a time when the more than 22,000 died [...]

Bueller? Bueller?

My first introduction to Ben Stein was Ferris Bueller’s Day Off… monotone snoozer of a teacher for the prankester hero Ferris Bueller. My next revival of this character was a call to action for stoners to get the red out with Clear Eyes (Wow) and then as a smarter than thou game show host [...]

Pandering to the non-elite

Many of the reasons people dislike politics include: 1) the exorbitant amount of money paid on “campaigning” for the job including advertising both for your points and pointing out your opponents “flaws” when even a fraction of which could feed, cloth and educate not only Africa but much of our own country, 2) attempt to [...]
