I found this interesting.............
Dear Employees:
As the CEO of this organization, I have resigned myself to the fact that Barrack Obama is our President and that our taxes and government fees will increase in a BIG way. To compensate for these increases, our prices would have to increase by about 10%. But, since we cannot increase our prices right now due to the dismal state of the economy, we will have to lay off sixty of our employees instead. This has really been bothering me since I believe we are family here, and I didn't know how to choose who would have to go.
So, this is what I did. I walked through our parking lots and found sixty "Obama" bumper stickers on our employees' cars and have decided these folks will be the ones to let go, I can't think of a more fair way to approach this problem. They voted for change............I gave it to them.
I will see the rest of you at the annual company picnic.

See-lie-in
I think we have started a tradition; somehow every weekend we are home (which hasn't been many) we end up in Santa Cruz and since its been raining all week we thought we'd better get out there while it's sunny. Eli was happy to get some sun (he is as white as a ghost), I was happy to see the ocean and Brent was happy to drink some beer. We even saw some sea lions hanging out under the pier, it would have been cool to see one jump up but I was too busy listening to the tourists saying, "what you call it?" "Oh, seee-lie-in" "HAHAHA see-lie-in!"
By the way Eli hasn't had any new milestones lately.........still waiting to eat solid food and still practicing crawling motions:P

Coins everywhere
John and Marcus and the flying bumbo man eli
I don't understand why there is no time given to customers to put their cash back in their wallets after making a purchase.....?? I think everyone has experienced this- you pay for your groceries with cash, then after you get your change, (bills, receipt and coins) it hits your hand and the next person in line gives you the look "get the hell out of my way" and you are forced to stuff your change in your pocket or throw it into your diaper bag. Hopefully one day we will all be able to wait for the person in front of us to put their change away and make everyone's day a little less stressful!
