    Oh, the Stigma of an Astigmatism. . .

    I just got three pairs of prescription glasses, but that's because I now need trifocals. I first got a pair of progressive lenses (all three scripts in one set of lenses) and hated them so I decided on a pair for reading, a pair for my computer station and the most glamorous ones for out and...

    Removing corrosion from vintage S & P shaker tops?

    I've been looking to bid on some vintage salt and pepper shakers, but see that some have corrosion on the metal lids. Does anyone know if they were mostly made from chrome? Aluminum? Can it be removed?? If so, how???

    Under eye cream

    I didn't agree with the first quote either, and the second was tongue-in-cheek about some of the moisturizers out there making crazy claims (and snake oil is nothing new.) I think the article offers some interesting views from dermatologists that are not mainstream. So, I offer is as another...

    Things I'm Sick of Hearing at Job Interviews...

    Reminds me of when I was interviewing for a position in the south, and I was asked "Why did you get so much schoolin'?" One thing I would suggest if you haven't already dome this is to bring a copy or two of your listed accolades to your next interview if that's possible, attached to the...

    Things I'm Sick of Hearing at Job Interviews...

    I used to write resumes professionally and have also worked for HR firms. My opinion is yes, leave it on. Because it's still very recent, potential employers want to see what you've done in school as long as the experience or skill set is relevant to what you are seeking.

    Things I'm Sick of Hearing at Job Interviews...

    My worst job interview experience It was with an uppity consulting firm in Portland. I first met with the owner in his office for an hour, then he introduced me to the other consultants. I was called back for a second interview, and he said "why don't we grab some coffee at the cafe next door."...

    Another Mom and Pop Closing =( I got a letter today (I'm in their database as a buyer) from the local crafts store where I get my supplies. They are going out of business after 15 years, and it is signed by the couple that own it. I always tried to go there instead of the corporate giant...

    They Just Don't Make Em' Like They Used To!

    I think the problems with poor quality began when many American companies moved their manufacturing operations to China.

    A sad note

    I'm not seeing anyone glorifying violence. In fact, a lot of porn these days seems to be very violent. I agree that Cosmo is more like porn ever since Helen Gurley Brown retired.

    Sartorial Objections

    Pajamas in public with bed head and slippers annoy me, although I sometimes have bed head, and that's after attempting to style my hair. It just does its own thing some days. :(
