MIRACLES ABOUND AMONGST US ON EARTH. In this life that we live in, certain events and occurrences are yet to be completely appreciated and comprehended. For example, it is common knowledge that a woman is expected to carry her pregnancy for a period of 9 months, after which delivery of the baby is expected. Nevertheless, there are recorded cases of women who require as much as 1 to 3 years before the delivery of their baby. When the...more
None of us are exempt from the things that happen in the human situation. I lost my father and then I lost my mother, and this has been eight and nine years ago. And then it happens today. Just minutes ago, as I'm writing this-literally less than five minutes ago-I got word about my father-in-law, a man who I viewed as a young man at 72, a man who I looked up to.My wife called in the middle of the working day, and told me that he had passed on....more
Bingo wings, n: A condition of saggy skin among older people and those who have lost a lot of weight. Thus named by the unique phenomenon where someone's aunt wins at bingo and throws her arms up in the air, thus flapping her bingo wings. Also known as bat wings, loose hammocks, auntie arms, nanna wobble, fadoobadas or nan flaps."Bingo wings" refers to a condition that no one wants to talk about. It happens to folks who get up in years, or people who have just lost a serious amount of weight. It can also be hereditary, among those who have the "bingo wing gene."Bingo wings are unattractive and make you feel like your body is older than it should be. They also give you a sense of disappointment after losing all that weight and still being plagued with wobbly, floppy fadoobadas. Often the condition is seen among teachers that becomes a source of laughter among school children.There are a few options to deal with them. You can exercise them off. Many have tried this, and achieved a great muscle tone UNDERNEATH the wings. No, the wings won't go away that easily. Another option is the obvious choice: Liposuction.

OK, the horse is out of the barn, your notes were called and your business closed and liquidated and your personal guaranties are now being paid off. Disaster, you lost everything you have worked so hard to build.What is done is done, but I also know most of you will rebuild. A new business, a new home, restored savings and you will succeed again. That is the nature of a small business owner: an entrepreneur at heart, a risk taker.However, you can learn from your experience. You can shut the barn door before the horse gets out, this time. But I see small business owners who lost everything rebuild and do the same things they did last time and thus, fail to learn how to better protect themselves should loss occur again.It seems everyone believes it will never happen to them again. Not the best bet when so much is at stake and so much has already been lost. It's time to shut the door completely and finally, for once and for all.A few rules to live by:1. If you are the risk taker, leave your wife out of it; off the books, not involved in the business and NEVER a guarantor no matter what.2. Remove your name from the family home. It is not a good idea. If she divorces...more
