QUESTIONS FROM THE WILDERNESS:

  • What does "ish" mean when scheduling meetings?
  • What can I say to people who chew food in my ear while we're talking on the phone?
  • Should event photos be sent to all invitees, even those that couldn't attend?
  • What date should we engrave on a wedding gift when the official marriage date is different from the ceremony?
  • What are good conversation starters when at charity and gala events?
