All about time management. We all learned that through pledging and being an active how to best manage our time.

They spend a month or more planning, then building, homecoming decorations.

I made my first quilt, all hand-stitched, when I was in college. (Actually in grad school, but I lived in the chapter house.) That was 39 years ago I still have the quilt and use the degree.

A marketer would say that I misjudged people's relationship to this brand.

At least one of those elephants is "Big Al" - The Alabama mascot.

Waiting to see a custom, motorized cooler.


Almost did a marketing promotion for a bottled water brand using this scooter-cooler. You can send in your logo & the company will customize it for you.

I realize I may have given some women an expensive idea, but please note that you CAN get a DUI driving one of these if you are over the limit.
