You're Not A Tree

     Walking through Chapters tonight (and maybe this makes me a geek but I think it's one of the coolest places on earth) and I saw a book titled: "What The Internet Is Doing To Our Brains". This book should be one word long: NOTHING! The internet isn't doing anything to your brain, fast food isn't making you fat and smoking isn't killing you. It's your choices that are doing this! Do things in moderation. Don't spend all your time doing something that you choose to do and then blame the thing for the consequences. Take some personal responsibility.

It's Amusing How People Think

     Had an amusing experience yesterday. I went out looking for a last minute Christmas gift for my wife. It's a tacky novelty that I suspect costs about .40 for the store and I imagine would have cost me about $8. When I went into Canadian Tire the two women there were amused I was looking for this item so late in the season. They told me that they do carry the item every year but are out of it by mid November. Their whole attitude was amusement at my not knowing this. Walking out I was equally as amused by how people that are supposed to be in business just don't get it. I'm the customer. I left without giving you my money. Someone did something dumb here but it wasn't me. You say yourself you run out of this product which I guarantee is a high mark up item, every year very early and don't meet the demand. Order more. Find another source. Charge more. It's incredible that people don't understand the fundamentals of how business works.
