Something is greatly disturbing me on this Election Day. Reading comments on blogs, reading news stories from the wire services, and receiving three phone calls last night from Republican friends asking for advice on which judges to vote for on the Democratic ballot has made me shake my head in wonder. How have we come to […]
Just when you thought I had abandoned my blog for other interests, here I come again. I have longed to take the time to sit and write a few words, but for the last two weeks I have been engulfed by the refrendum initiative to take the 1/4% Sales Tax Increase to the voters. Some […]
I had to chuckle when I read about the kids in Gahanna placing a Big Boy likeness on the roof of their school. When reading about the forklift and manpower needed to rescue Big Boy from his perch and return him to his rightful place, I couldn’t help but wonder how those kids got him […]
Yesterday Christine came by for a cup of coffee, and this is how the conversation started. “I thought my pharmacy bag seemed awfully light when I picked it up.” Over the years, she and I have formed this little charade on how we handle these conversations about Medicaid.

Dear Learn and Earn:
With all due respect, what a bunch of bsh. Proponents of gambling have tried twice straight up to get gambling in the state of Ohio with no go. Education is a HUGE […]
Last evening I had the opportunity to be on of the four speakers at the Akron/Canton Chapter American Marketing Association September dinner meeting held at the Sheraton Suites. If you haven’t had the opportunity to visit the Sheraton Suites in Cuyahoga Falls, do so. It sits right by the Cuyahoga at the falls. The views from the […]

So Sunday is the day that I open the mail and deal with it. Today, I opened a letter from National City Bank and burst out laughing. In October, 2005 I closed my account with National City, received a check for the balance in the account and moved our checking account to another bank. In November, I received […]
