Orange Barrel Media Fail

To Whom It May Concern, As a Christian, Conservative, and American Patriot I was shocked to read that you rejected a billboard for the movie “God’s not Dead 2” in Cleveland, Ohio near the site for the Republican National Convention coming up this week. The slogan “Judged by God” is not offensive to the majority…

November Decision

Keep in mind as you decide how to vote this November that one of the candidates is under criminal investigation for allowing secret information to be mined from her computer. She issued a “STAND-DOWN” order which allowed 4 Americans to be murdered including our Ambassador to Libya. An Ambassador who, after his death, was dragged…

DIY 101.1

101.1 Prior to laying down across the top of your stove it is a good idea to turn the range circuit breaker off. This will go a long way to prevent accidentally turning on the 12 inch ultra high burner. If the burner does come on while you are laying on the stove-top, the first…

Tired

I’m tired, I mean the kind of tired that permeates to the very core, not a valiant tired or even a sacrificial tired rather a tired that steals one’s strength, hides one’s energy, and worst of all slays one’s passion to do anything, let alone pursuing the dream or the mission in which God intended…

A Story About A Cat

At the risk of offending all you cat lovers out there, I need to be upfront and honest about something before we get too far into this tale or maybe I should say tail. I hate cats. I just don’t like the way they sneak around and stay up all night and then they turn…

The Applicant

Okay, so I have this department with 24 employees and sometimes we hire people thru a temporary agency during the holidays and at other seasonal events. Last December we ended up with Franklin. Franklin is in his 40’s and he started out impressive enough or so it seemed at the time. As time goes by…

Proper Tools For The Job

Monday Morning: Diane: Hey Pauline, would you mind ordering some of that repair glue? Pauline: Yes, I have it on the order form for the supply house. Bob: (In his usual high-pitched voice) Now, I…I don’t think that’s a good idea. Why should we buy that glue when we can just get Elmer’s glue. Get…

The Post-It Note

4:30 PM Thursday Pauline: The special envelopes we ordered finally came in. I’m going to stack these right here on Diane’s desk so she will see them when she comes in tomorrow morning. Bob: (In his usual high-pitched voice): Now, I..I..I..don’t think that’s a good idea. She might think you want her to use them….

After 55 Years: Still Undecided

So here I sit… just hours until my 55th birthday. Fifty-five has a catchy ring to it but it also reminds me that I am no longer 54 or 53 or 30. I’m sure you get the idea. Another year has blown past and as Dr. Jerry Vines used to say: “Life is like re-winding…

L-B Tardy Excuse 2014-12-03

8:45 AM: Pauline: Has anyone heard from Bob today? Diane: No, I haven’t. But then again his regular tardy time isn’t for another few minutes. 9:15 AM: Pauline: Morning Bob, glad to see you finally made it in. Bob: Yes I am running behind but it’s not my fault. I took those empty Christmas boxes…
