Bookish Thursday: Whatchya Got Cookin’?
Well, I spent a whole week down south of the Mason-Dixon line, and wouldn’t you know it.. I didn’t eat a crumb of southern cooking! Sigh.

This cookbook is chock full of delicious sound

At the time I was driving 40 miles per hour (speed limit is 30) and was keeping pace with other cars around me. The guy behind me was apparently in a hurry to get somewhere, so he figured driving about a foot from my rear bumper would help him reach his
60+ Resources for Big Brother Fans
My name is Sean P. Aune and I am a Big Brother fan. It’s not always an easy thing to admit, but every summer I plant myself in front of the television for three months and yell at the contestants I hate. For those unfamiliar with the show, a varying number of people enter a “house” (really a decorated sound stage at CBS), spend 90 days scheming to vote each other out, and the winner takes home $500,000. The show has a different format here in the USA than it does anywhere else in the world, bu

Finally! A Buffalo Web/Media Site That Doesn’t Sit On The Fence!
Finally! A Buffalo Web/Media Site That Doesn’t Sit On The Fence! July 31, 2008 The Buffalo News has got my back on this one. A lot of area musicians, artists, writers and photographers have got my back on this one. And now, I’m pleased to say, so does WNYMedia.net, another new voice in a small sea of journalistic endeavors afoot in Buffalo. What I like about this site is that they aren’t huddled in a corner afraid to take chances like Buffalo Rising. It’s not a watered down, ho

How can you make your customers your menu home?
Imagine you are running a restaurant. Won’t it be nice to have your customers take a copy of your menu with them. It’s like a walking advertisement. What would make someone pick up a menu and take it home? Here is one answer: Create compelling content targeted at your regular customers.

ACN Review: Scam Or Not?
by Joe Marquez If you are reading this article, I’m betting that you are researching ACN after seeing their business presentation at a hotel meeting or a friend’s house.
