Maybe I’m nuts. Hands free soap dispenser? Who cares?
Wouldn’t it be wiser to invest in a NO TOUCH FAUCET? The Lysol No Touch Hand Soap System is useless. Look at the order of “things”. 1. Hands get yucky 2. Turn on faucet 3. Faucet gets yucky 4. Pump hand soap 5. Hand soap dispenser gets yucky 6. Wash hands disinfecting hands properly 7. Turn off faucet. Re-yuckify hands. [...]

Dear WAVY TV 10
If it was your intent in fact to raise viewership over WVEC by firing Jon Cash, it failed on at least one household. I have been a loyal WAVY viewer for many years. I have tolerated Don Slater’s huffing and puffing his way through a weathercast for years but have always enjoyed Jon Cash’s style and delivery. Wheeler is just annoying a [...]
Priceless payback…
And I had little to nothing to do with it. I was driving on I-64 EB near Robin Hood Rd enjoying some of VDOT’s wonderful wizardry. We were poking along at a mind numbing 5 miles per hour… or so. Next to me, was a young woman driving an SUV, just texting away on her phone. Several times she drifted over near our lane separator, once cr [...]
Overheard…
I was talking with Denise this morning. We were watching the local news and the primary stories were a couple of homicides, traffic problems, road construction and heat and humidity. Denise, a native New Yorker, said, “What’s new?” Pretty sad commentary for Hampton Roads actually. Just my thoughts on a Monday morning. [...]
Retail idiots – Why I shop online II
Dear Macarthur Center Yankee Candle Retail Sales Person: When a customer says no thank you and I’ll let you know if I need any help, that is what it means. Walking behind me and explaining the scents and sales (signs were right in front of me) just served to cause me to leave without making a purchase. So I went to Brookstone and bought a [...]
Best Android Apps?
List’em for me!!! My Droid is on the truck and should be delivered this afternoon. I’ll be holding a DROWNING CEREMONY for my Blackberry Storm this weekend. What apps can you just not live without? [...]
Called DirectTV with questions…
I called DirectTV this morning to ask about installation in my apartment. It was all I could do to keep from laughing in her face, figuratively of course. Question 1: Is my apartment building suitable for DirectTV installation? Answer: Sure, we can put a tripod in your yard… Uh… I live in an urban apartment building in DOWNTOWN. [...]
I remain silent no more… Mayor Holley? GO HOME!
For years while employed by the City of Portsmouth, I have remained silent about the “goings on” of our city. I have remained silent because of City Administrative Policies, Police Department Policies and a general attitude of “good will” toward my employer. I will be silent no more. First on the list is Mayor Holley. Dr. Holle [...]
