It’s VERY dark at 3:00am

Black Friday is officially over.

While many stores will continue their price-slashing frenzy, you don’t have to be up before the sun to grab the bargains. One early-rising shopper lamented his pre-dawn lack of caffeine.

Roaming around in the dark is no place to play games and we are reminded that the online people have their day coming up on Cyber Monday.

Don’t forget that this particular Friday or Monday is not the only option to save money. Day-by-day opportunities are on the shelf right in front of us 24/7. Sort of like going on a grocery store cattle drive if you’re into branding.

When you decide to go out on your own and actually work from home, you should recognize that you will miss more than idle chatter by the water cooler. Look down. There also is no safety net beneath you.

Have you ever hopped on the back of a powerful motorcycle and taken off fast on a winding road? Or perhaps had the passenger sitting behind you as you navigate the curves? In college I had a Vespa motor scooter. Briefly. Check out this web log site. It’s much, much more exciting than my scooter ever was.

I did not think I would be doing another Roundup so soon but it’s always a pleasure. I’m Chuck and invite you to go and see what I’ve been up to. Thanks.
