The lipstick effect.  Knowing the state of the economy and world and we choose to do only the fun stuff while setting bills and other expectations aside.  Plus...why has it become the hot cool fad for busineses to endlessly fire the people that brought them success?

Listeners wanted a show where Alexa should ask me questions.  That's like pulling teeth from a toothless tiger.  So we ended up talking about old school radio.  Why?  Nobody listens like they used to and it makes me sound extremely old bringing things up like cue burns and 45's.  Plus...when your religion is being challenged.  How can we talk about this without offending listeners?

Flocks camera systems.  Not just a U.S. thing.  How legal is it?  If the governments are watching us who is capturing the bad guys and why is it taking so long?  Plus when your religious beliefs at work are violated, what can an employee do?

I'm so guilty for standing up for what I believe is a bad manager mistreating coworkers.  I am wrong or right for having a voice?  Is it leadership on their behalf to be a bully on the workplace front?  Plus are we wearing our underwear too tight?  Should we go commando?

This is supposed to be the generation that puts America first only to see Kroger setting things up to send over one thousand jobs to India.  Ummmm really?  Plus, why are we investing so much energy in digital technology saving our legacy when we know digital can't be trusted?

Can people in retail be there because of an addiction to being with people?  Plus we are in the center of a huge cultural war... the battle between the power drinks.  Is there a better option.

So many of us complain about workplace stress and anxiety from companies fighting to keep their doors open.  We can't be the only generation!  What did our parents experience?  Plus...excuses.  Everybody has an excuse as to why they can't do something.  Dealing with those who have no excuse but still get away with it.

Alexa thinks we're going back to old sayings because the future doesn't hold open enough space to slip in newer ways to express our feelings.  Hmmm.  The list of comebacks trips you up.  Reincarnating your great grandparents.

Celebrating my 33rd year of marriage.  I was shocked to learn I've been an authentic daily writer for 32 of those years.  How weird am I?  Plus babies!  The ins outs twists spins and journey and then you meet me in a grocery store and I want to shove a pen in your writing hand.  You aren't a great listener in any thing you do unless you are writing daily in a journal.  Listening starts with you.  Damn it!  Now you won't listen to this!  Crap!

Who really does have the best hot dogs?  And why?  Plus, camping used to be the great escape until popularity took over.  Now it's unbelievably expensive!
