Another day, another tournament

You've probably noticed we haven't written much recently. We've been kind of busy... Seems like every evening, every weekend has been filled up. Even now, I'm writing from my phone while I wait for a client's computer to update Quickbooks (which takes forever, by the way.

After this I will head home for lunch and try to pack for the weekend so I'll be ready when people are ready to leave after work.

Enjoy, and let us know if you try them out!

Buzzwatch : Idea Watch: 50 Things Being Blamed on Rising Oil Prices

You can pretty much blame anything on rising gas prices (with citations).  I recently heard that the average American only uses 550 gallons of gas a year.  That's only $500+ extra dollars a year for the average American.  Even though I probably drive more than that I'm not too concerned about gas prices.  They are much higher in other parts of the world and those people seem to get along alright.
