Eggnog Haikus

We were working on our grocery (and liquor) list for the coming week. Since the weather had turned cold and Christmas was less than a month away, I decided it was a perfect reason to add another haiku to the blog:

Eggnog oh Eggnog
Sludgy goo that we love so
At least once a year

Eggnog on the blog
Posts need topic to inspire
Cheesy but timely

Eggnog and Brandy
Drink that inspires visions of
Chestnuts and Santa

Happy Birthday Cherry Mash!

90 Years young and just as tasty as ever!

I met the fine folks at Chase Candy eight years ago when I was just starting my PC Tech business. The owners had gotten a virus on their home computer. I spent three hours working on it, but finally got rid of the pest. While we waited for the various virus software to scan the computer, we chatted.

I was also getting my feet wet in Web page design at the time. Chase had just gotten Internet access at the factory, and were thinking about starting a web presence for the company. A very nice case of serendipitous timing if I have ever seen one. A long term business relationship was born on that first meeting, but also the start of a friendship that continues today.

Dozens of meetings and preliminary designs later, the website http://www.cherrymash.com/ was born. The website will be eight-years-old in December. The website is WAY overdue for an upgrade, and we are working on new designs to give it a face lift. Check it out and feel free to send ideas about what you would like to see on the new site.

I just had to add to this post.
After a VERY long campaign season, it is time to govern.
My wife, a life-long Republican, and I, a Democrat, have supported Obama, and are happy that he won.

Now it is time to govern!

It's time to make good on campaign promises, it's time to work on the issues our country faces, it's time for change to happen.

It's time we all get together and make it happen.

It's time that we Americans become the United States of America again.

No more red and blue, liberal and conservative, coastal states and flyover states ... pick your favorite cliche, but it is time to come together.
