Comments off

The other day I was chatting with a friend about a colleague and when I mentioned that the person was 50, she said, “Oh, they are old.”  I nearly fell out of my chair.  OLD?  How is 50 OLD?  I did a quick calculation of how far away I was from 50 and then turned […]

Comments off

One of my biggest pet peeves within the advertising and marketing arena is false advertising…or for that matter, misleading the consumer.  It happens all of the time and most of the time, I can let it go.  That said, I’ve been fighting the urge to write about this specific topic for some time, but it […]

All-Natural, Organic and ummm…Toxic

Comments off
