Who’s Watching Us and Why?

I read the following in Paul Myers’ newsletter and had to share it TalkBiz News Issue for August 26, 2010 Today’s issue gets into some things I think everyone who uses computers or cell phones needs to consider. This is serious stuff, and it’s important. Feel free to share this with anyone you like, including […]

Leaving These Blues

Your daily lyrics: These Blues Lyrics by Jimmy Lafave There’s a new light above you Let it shine, let it shine Let your faith and your hope both renew Don’t fade from our sight Deep in the night Like a stranger on a lost avenue Hey, you’ve got to be leaving these blues Though your […]
