“I smell old people,” says many kids upon their first visit to see Grandma and Grandpa.
It’s an unforgetable scent – that of medicinal cremes, ointments, mothballs.
And it’s a sensation that many people tend to find memorable, and not in a good way.

Bosses: are you looking for what type of corporate holiday gifts you should be handing out to your employees at the end of the year?
It can be tough to choose – many organizations have extremely strict limits on how much of monetary value an individual can receive as a gift. Web Watch knows of one company that gave each employee a $50 gift card last year… along with the appropriate paperwork so the proper taxable amount was reported to the IRS.
Yup, it was the classic “here’s a gift, and don’t forget to pay taxes on it” scam that’s all the rage these days.
People say that running a bar or restaurant is one of the hardest careers that one can have. In essence, you’re responsible for your customers’ happiness – which is completely different from being sure you provide good customer service.
People expect their food (or drink) to make them happy and content. A good meal can bring a level of satisfaction that can only be met by very few other things in this world. Web Watch will let you choose what those are for you.
Watching Top Chef, Iron Chef, or even the Next Food Network Star pale in comparison to MASTERCHEF, the program that takes “home cooks” and shows that complicated dishes can be made by anyone.
Bosses have it tough, much tougher than the employees they manage.
They have to lead, teach, motivate, advise, and occasional discipline their staff – their family – and do so in such a way as to still maintain that boss-employee relationship instead of delving into that questionable world of boss-but-friend awkwardness that can occasionally rear its ugly head.

Top Paying Jobs for Women
Laurie Anderson released the song “BEAUTIFUL RED DRESS” (from her album Strange Angels) in 1989. Some of the lyrics included these lines:
well they say women shouldn’t be the president
cause they go crazy from time to time
well push my button baby here I am
yeah look out baby I’m at high tide
I’ve got a beautiful red dress
and you’d look really good standing beside it..
ok! ok! hold it! I just want to say something
you know, for every dollar a man makes a woman makes 63 cents
now, fifty years ago that was 62 cents.
so, with that kind of luck,
it’ll be the year 3,888 before we make a buck
