]]> Comment on God is sending Mr. Acheson a message. by Marc DiGiorgio, CIC http://blog.marcd.com/2008/08/25/god-is-sending-mr-acheson-a-message/#comment-830 Marc DiGiorgio, CIC Wed, 03 Sep 2008 00:15:36 +0000 http://blog.marcd.com/2008/08/25/god-is-sending-mr-acheson-a-message/#comment-830 Scott, Thanks for stopping by and taking the time to write and comment. From what you've written, it's even more clear to me that Mr. Acheson was/is cut out for something other than being a driver for Sid Wainer and Co. Like him, I think we all struggle with figuring out "what we're here for". Best regards, Scott,

If i didn't know the guy i'd agree with you that his firing was totally uncalled for. The fact is though that for 2 years he was constantly having the same things happen to him. He stopped a crackhead from stealing from his truck, he called the police about kids he thought were being absused. He helped the county health department shut down a restaurant he was delivering to, etc., etc. The guy was always getting complaints from customers that he wasn't getting there on time, or was not minding his own business. He wanted everyone to be his best friend, and basically drove everyone at my place of work crazy with his big mouth. Finally last April my boss had to similarily get rid of him, and despite a lot of not being really in love with the ol'boss none of us complained. You can believe i'm BS'ing you, but i have no reason to, just find the guy and talk to him for 10 minutes and you will see that he's a few fries short of a happy meal. But don't do it by computer as he's banned from using the internet by the Feds after he was convicted of boiler room stock scams back in the early 90's and sent to prison (google his name and you'll probably find info, i didn't have to as he bragged about it and other felonies he'd done constantly!).

In my own defense, I don't think I ever stopped being a student, even with all those years of running my own businesses. I always want to be a student of *something*, this way I get to keep learning! Besides, I'd be *utterly miserable* if I stopped! Thanks for the post! In my own defense, I don’t think I ever stopped being a student, even with all those years of running my own businesses.

Funny, his name is similar, but spelled "Mark".

]]> Comment on Buying groceries TODAY: inflation hedge? by Mike http://blog.marcd.com/2008/06/01/buying-groceries-today-inflation-hedge/#comment-176 Mike Sun, 01 Jun 2008 16:20:55 +0000 http://blog.marcd.com/2008/06/01/buying-groceries-today-inflation-hedge/#comment-176 Yes, great idea, buy today and save from the increase of tomorrow. Of course that is assuming you have no debt and do not have a mortgage or a car loan (most people do not consider these items as loans but a need) that you are paying interest on. Because assuming you do have any debt you are paying more than the rate of increase in inflation with interest. Yes, great idea, buy today and save from the increase of tomorrow.

]]> Comment on Another modest proposal by Mike http://blog.marcd.com/2008/05/13/another-modest-proposal/#comment-175 Mike Sat, 31 May 2008 20:55:23 +0000 http://blog.marcd.com/2008/05/13/another-modest-proposal/#comment-175 I believe that we should take over the world and make all countries our states. We should put a MARINE with a machine gun as the "MARINE-IN-CHARGE" by all the current and future "Governors" We should shoot them as soon as they stop agreeing with us and place the "Lt. Governor" as the new Governor (but make sure there is a new "Lt. Governor" ready before we shoot him/her.) I think we know what is best for all citizens of this world and our way of life is the best around (just because we know this and don't have to prove anything to anyone with any funny head gear). I think all policies and procedures should be governed by that "Marine-In-Charge" His decision should be "FINAL". If anything happens to our MARINE than we should nuke the region "that state" is in and start over again. I believe that we should take over the world and make all countries our states.

I hope you don't think I was satirizing Britney's plight, though. I just thought there might be better methods of using the negative force surrounding her against itself!
