March 5, 2013 Be honest. Do you really like to go car shopping? I don't, I guess I ask too many questions. Recently, I had one dealer tell me NOT to buy the car, and go someplace else. So I did. I had my car repaired and saved thousands of dollars over the purchase of a new car. In defense of both car dealers and their salespeople, they do put up with a lot.
March 4, 2013 If you're like me an have an iPhone, you may think of Siri as a bit of a novelty. I tried it a few times, got frustrated, ran out of patience, and forgot about it.
February 20, 2013 Having been a member of the "Nascar Fan Council" for the past two years, I have been privy to information inside Nascar that was not available to the general public. I have been asked and voiced my opinion to Nascar on just about everything connected with the sport , and am now free to talk about it publicly
February 20, 2013 On my way to the studio everyday, I see lots and lots of new cars. I started wondering one day, where the hood ornaments went? I can understand the reasoning behind removing the big chrome bumpers and the sleek tail fins, but why remove a hood ornament?
February 20, 2013 Everyone knows when a plane goes down, the first thing the investigators try to get is the black box recorder. The recorder can measure the actions of the pilots, record transmissions and also anything on their dash they may have seen.

Things got weird in the burger wars yesterday when hackers broke into the Burger King Twitter page and started firing off pro-McDonald's tweets.
February 19, 2013 Have you had a bad customer service issue in the past? I've been pretty darn lucky when I've needed to return an item here in the Northland over the past several years. Merchants here in the Duluth, Superior area "get it." I can't say the same for the larger companies however. My problem today is with Apple.
February 12, 2013 I've recently taken up ironing my own clothes. I own lots of shirts and like them neat. The big problem for me is not the ironing, it's the folding. I never seem to fold my shirts correctly. I happened to mention it to Lulu one day, and she told me the next time I did my ironing, to bring over a shirt or two and she'd show me how it's done
February 12, 2013 There's a new app available that kids are using at an alarming rate. This app lets them send video, pictures or text or a combination of all of them. People think it's being used for sexting and so far research says it's not.
February 11, 2013 What men fear most is now a reality. Guys, she now can rate you with an app, for the whole world to see. If you happen to be a little short on some things, or in some department, she can now tell all. Let's include "revenge" in this conversation as well. Men, we could be in trouble.
February 7, 2013 With all the snow falling and people complaining about not being plowed out fast or the streets not looking their best right away, i am reminded of a page I saw on the Duluth website answering questions about snow removal. So, I revisited the questions.
February 5, 2013 Talking with my friend Cathy this morning and we started to mention how things are changing and how things are disappearing. It's rumored that book stores will be a thing of the past, in most cases they already are.
