People have been writing, emailing, calling, twittering, and sending those weird messages from Facebook, asking me
“Whatever happened to your Friday links? We’re RETAILERS … we need a little extra dose of fun to make it a real WEEKEND for us!”
So, herein, some interesting, amusing, and odd weekend trips along the Information Highway I’ve stumbled across for you. I leave it to you to decide which are the odd ones.
The simplest explanation of how to write a press release.
My step-by-step example, which we did back in post-Katrina days.
Okay, that’s enough business for the weekend. Enjoy yourself with these links:
Be thankful you’re not in the bakery business, where your mistakes are engraved in frosting.
Got bored teens around the house? Let them find gainful employment (=all the used jeans they want from your shop).
And now for something completely different. How I LONG to have one of these in my dream shop.
Put a link to this song/video on your desktop. Then play it when someone really IRKS you. I dare you to get upset, then.


The Art-O-Mat is my latest vote for best re-use of an item! Simply brilliant.
