Flowers Are The Perfect Gift For Father's Day
Dads everywhere have Sonora Smart Dodd to thank for getting
Father's Day started. In 1909, Sonora sat in a church in Spokane,
Washington listening to a sermon expounding on the virtues of
motherhood. But, as she sat there, she thought about how special
her own father was since it was he who raised her after the death
of her mother.

NEVER Reply to an eGroup Post!
eGroups are collections of people subscribed to a
common (discussion list) address. When one member
sends an eMail message to the eGroup address, it
is automatically sent to everyone else on the
list. As subscribers open and read their eMail,
discussion threads take shape with additional
posts and replies. The attraction of eGroups is
the ability to join in at your convenience as
opposed to the confinement of live chat rooms.

TAKING RESPONSIBILITY - LIFE'S BIGGEST QUESTION
When did Americans stop taking responsibility for their own
actions? My friend agreed
that the slide began in the late 1960's with the growth of the
drug culture.
But he was quick to emphasize that although the sixties began
the slide, the real sharp slope did not arrive until the 1990's.
Along about 1993, the slide began to sharpen. It was not until
early 1998 that the slope became a steep cliff.

When Giving A Free Sample Is Worse Than Political Anarchy
It seems like an obvious maneuver: give something away for free
to draw more customers in. I see my favorite grocery store do it,
and it works incredibly well- the store is mobbed, especially on
Saturdays, when the samples are outrageous. But, whether it's
samples of instant oatmeal, or 'sample' coaching sessions, I've
seen small business owners bomb over and over again with this
tactic.
