EMERGENCY Bread & Milk!!!

Thanks to local Tweep & Facebooker, Ryan for snapping this pic just before 2009's first snow storm hits. How was it ever decided, that the 2 most essential items you need in preparation for a snow storm was bread and milk? I can think of plenty of things we could grab to eat in the house before chomping on some bread and washing it down with a big glass of moo-moo juice. It just kind of strikes me as being an odd selection of priorities. In fact, here are 10 things I think should come before you really need bread and milk:

10) Hot Cocoa/Tea/Coffee
9) Blankets
8) Snow Shovel/Snow Blower
7) A Bunch of Movies
6) Sleds
5) Gloves
4) Snow Boots
3) Video Camera to record vehicles stuck outside as you laugh inside in the warmth
2) iPod with Earphones, so you can drown out the sound of the kids fighting, as cabin fever sets in.

AND THE #1 THING YOU MUST BE STOCKED UP ON BEFORE A SNOW STORM........TOILET PAPER! Because face it, what would we do if we ran out of that? (Don't answer that).

Can I Buy a Gift Certificate for My Neighbor's Dog that Craps on My Lawn?

One of the great things about being in business for yourself, is having the power to make all the decisions, yourself. In big companies you have to run everything through committees and focus groups. In partnerships, you have to hope your partner doesn't reject every creative idea you come up with. Poor Nina here, would have benefited from having another opinion on her company tag line. Of course, she could have done worse. She could have come up with one of these instead:

• "If someone's going to shoot your loved ones, why not me?"
• "Will shoot your dog in my studio, or at your home."

Unauthorized Parking Pays Off

Sweet! Fifty bucks! Well...at least that would cover the towing bill, perhaps. I wonder how hard it would be to find the $50? Do you think it's just laying in the parking spot? Or maybe the tow truck driver carries around a wad of fifties with him, and will peel one off when he picks up your car.

Spell check isn't the only tool you should use when making signs. We've all done this with emails, etc. "Find" is, after all, a word spelled correctly. Sometimes it just takes a second look, a second opinion, or a second grade education.
