So I am looking for a new car-

Something that is good on gas because I basically live in my car. But the catch is, I would really love something with 4 wheel drive. 

I was looking at the Ford Escape... any recommendations?  Any Ford Escape owners out there? I would love your honest feedback!

Richard’s Rules for Survival in the Office.



In light of recent events in the lives of so many American workers, including my own, I propose the following list of rules for survival in any workplace, especially "The Office."
1.  Limit your conversation between yourself and other co-workers strictly to job-related issues.  Keep it "strictly business."  Do not discuss anything else with your co-workers.  Try to limit your conversation and Emails between yourself and your co-workers only to what relates to the job and business relating to both of you.
2.  If a co-worker tries to discuss his or her personal business with you, and it does not relate to you and your job, politely end the conversation by stating that it is none of your business.  Remember, work is not a social club or pick-up joint; work is WORK.  If the co-worker needs counseling, suggest he or she talk to Human Resources or a licensed, professional counselor.
3.  Keep your work AT WORK and your home AT HOME.  Do not conduct personal business at work unless you absolutely must do so AT BREAKTIME or LUNCHTIME.
4.  Do not attempt to make close friends with your co-workers.  Again, work is not a social club or a pick-up joint.  If you make a friend, fine, but keep things strictly business.
5.  Speak only about work-related issues.  Do not talk about trivia or college-knowledge or family or anything else other than what is directly work related.  No one else is interested in that!  Do not comment about anyone else on the job except to give constructive criticism as it relates to the job.  Do not comment about anyone else related to your job who does not work there at all!!
6.  Remember, what is in your possession, at your desk, is never EVER really yours.  It belongs to the COMPANY.  Company officials can and will search it and investigate it.  This is especially true regarding Emails, notes, pictures, verbal communication, and other office communications.  Other people will also use your computer, your files, and anything else you may have on "your" desk.  Any files you put on the computer, such as pictures, Emails, music, or non-work related documents, can put you on the spot, on the carpet, or on the unemployment line!  Depending on their content, they may also put YOU in JAIL.
To borrow a national security and defense contractor phrase from World War 2, "A slip of the lip can sink a ship!"  One slip of YOUR lip can sink YOUR ship when it comes to your job, your career, or your life!!

Black Friday - The Biggest Shopping Day of the Year!  It's almost here and as much as I am a die hard Black Friday shopper (don't ask me to explain why, I am what I am), Black Friday just isn't what it used to be.  As a kid, my mom and I would wait all year for Black Friday to come (now keep in mind that my mother and I have bonded for years over shopping) and we'd scour the ads for who had not just the best deals, but the best "gimmes" too.  It used to be that you would get things like Christmas ornaments and scratch offs that would net you anything from 10 percent off to 100 percent off - on TOP of the already great Black Friday deals.  And to make things even better, it used to be that stores would offer coffee, hot chocolate, donuts and even COOKIES!  Now don't get me wrong, some stores do still have some good deals, but it's not to the degree that it once was.  It seems like stores now have a handful of big ticket deals (usually electronics anymore) and everything else is no better than the rest of the year.  40-50 percent isn't exactly a GREAT deal anymore.  You can find that in just about any department store on just about any weekend.  With all that said, probably the best part of Black Friday was that it was truly the launch of the Christmas season.  This would be the day that all of the stores unveiled their Christmas decor - and it was always worth the wait.  Christmas music would play no matter where you went and that weekend Santa would make his grand entrance at each and every shopping mall.  Nowadays, decorations , Christmas music and even Santa start popping up in October!!!!!  Believe me, I get it.  If you put the stuff out there people will buy it.  Don't think I haven't been tempted.  Mostly because all my decoration are still all packed away.  I haven't seen any of it in about a year so it's pretty likely that I don't remember most of what I already have.  If I don't know what I have, I'm likely to buy things that I may already own - and it seems to me that stores are banking on that.  So with all of that said, let me be straight in saying that yes, I will be going out at 4am on Black Friday and yes, I have already been on every Black Friday ad spoiler site seeing what I'll be buying, but at the end of the day I'll be a little bit sad that things just aren't how they used to be.

Okay - so still a lot of new TV to see but for how long?  The writers are on strike now and then the actors and directors may go in May.  What will we watch?  I guess that's what the outside world is for . . .  to take up time when there's nothing on TV (ha, ha). 
 
Me for one is going to miss 24, The Office, House, How I met Your Mother and oh yea K-Ville (not that bad for a new show).  At least in January I have to look forward to that new Terminator series on FOX.  From what the internet tells me it kicks butt.  Did you see those red eyes popping up during Prison Break a few weeks back - yikes. :) 
 
What about those late night hours after a few beverages?  No Conan, Jimmy and Mad TV (on the weekends).  Boy, who thought those writers striking would have such an effect on our lives.  
 
What do you think?  What are you gonna miss?  What should I be watching?
 
Help a man who's watching the "Tuttle" episode of MASH for the hundredth time.

I like Christmas. I really do.  But I like Christmas in December. Not July or August. December is supposed to be Christmas so why is it that every year it comes earlier and earlier?? It used to be the official launch of Christmas was Thanksgiving/Black Friday. I remember watching the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade and the big deal of the parade, besides the balloons, is the fact that the parade brings in Santa Claus!! To me, that meant the holiday season is here. But it was back in early August I began to see Christmas stuff in the stores. And now, Christmas music is being shoved down my through. I am already hearing jingle bells and soon I know I will be acosted at every store I go into by the Salavation Army and the bells they clang constantly!! So now, all this, is making me start to feel bitter about Christmas. By the time it comes I am sick of it already. It's also kind of how I feel about football season. Oh well.
