  • I haven't forgot you, faithful reader

    Ok folks, I know it’s been a long time since I updated. Believe me, if it were up to me I’d be blogging like a sonuvabitch. Unfortunately, I’ve been on the road almost non-stop since the 11th, and it ain’t looking any better until the 7th of March. In the mean time, have a drink…

  • Mr. Salazar, Please, Just Don’t

    ABC reported this morning that a new “Pro-Hillary” 527 called the “American Leadership Project” was being launched by Clinton loyalists to swift boat the Obama campaign. This is their first ad.

  • Remember to Burp it to Seal in the Freshness

    I’m in Dallas doing an event for Tupperware. In the past week I’ve done a show for an agricultural fiber, a hotel with a base in Memphis and THE Original Food Storage in Plasticware company. It’s been as long however long it’s been. In that time I’ve started and abandoned many a post. Time just…
