I have come to a huge milestone in my life and felt a need to change the direction of this blog. My posting, as of late, has been less than desirable with little to no inspiration.
My work experience has been in the same field for the last 42 years. New company leaders have come in to revive a dieing industry, thanks to our Gov. (NAFTA), in the US. Good Luck!!!
In the future, I will post both personal items and income related opportunities.
Love all of You that visit us, give us a comment

My Rant and Rave Entry
Bear With Me, I just want to vent my frustrations of trying to deal with large electronic companies support.
It seems that every time you are confronted with any type of question and call concerning technical support or product recommendations no one can give you an answer and quickly transfers you to a different extension to keep from exposing their short comings or product ignorance.
My most recent encounters with the problem have been with Dell, Bellsouth, and Panasonic.
The support functions online for each are so hidden or labor intensive with unnecessary BS that most people give up with disgust.
Tonight, I tried to use Panasonic's support contact form and gave up after the 3rd try of filling out the long BS form when trying to find a flash or light for a "not so cheap" video/still camera.
Seems that each time when I hit the submit button, there was an error message on the page. I had already become suspicious when the page stated a 24 hour reply time.
I believe that most large companie's pride and common sense has gone to "Hell In A Handbasket" as my grandparents would have said.
If you have had negative experiences with these large companies, please leave me a comment.

Marketing Tip:
***This will make you see red***
For two-color direct mail packages, red is usually the best choice for the second color. The reason: a growing body of scientific literature on the effects of color indicates that red is exciting for people -arousing - while blue and green are calming.
