“Less than 30 days old.”

There I was, at a fancy boutique liquor store looking for the perfect organic wine to pair with the upcoming Thanksgiving feast. Unfortunately, I didn’t find the perfect wine, actually is was hard to even stomach it. But I did come across Georgia Moon Corn Whiskey. Close friends know that I’m a man of simple tastes and enjoy cheap whiskies. Hell, you don’t know what’s good if you don’t know what’s bad, right?
Back to the white lightning. For $12, it’s not that bad. Not an authentic shine but for “OTC”, not bad. It’s very mild with a sweet corn/sour smell and not much of a bite. Don’t be afraid, just drink it out of the mason jar as it was intended. Besides, the jar doesn’t pour very well anyway. Perfect for a snowy night in the mountains and some fiddle playin’.
Happy Thanksgiving!

It’s a busy day trying to get stuff done before the holiday. I would like to say that I’m thankful for new clients and being busy. Have a safe and enjoyable holiday.
Credit Card Companies Suck
Posted by Administrator | Filed under HIJACKED!
Funny thing happened yesterday. I got a letter from CitiBank/CitiCard. I do have Citi credit card with a low balance and a reasonable APR. Now the funny part starts. The letter stated that they were changing the terms of my contract and raising my APR to 16.99% plus the prime. Then in fine print at the bottom it stated that I can “opt out” of the new terms.
I did opt out and kept my current rate and will keep my eye out for similar letters. How sneaky is that? Citi just got handed billions but are now reaching into their clients’ pockets. I wonder how many people don’t opt out. I ended my night by catching Citi CEO Vikram Pandit on Charlie Rose. All I can say is that he is a sniveling evasive snake.

First order of business. The views and opinions that follow are not reflective of ripcord and I take all responsibility. Not that I’m going to purposely slander or insult anyone or anything, but I do have opinions. Whew, now that is out of the way, this is a hijacking. This hijack will go on until someone else in the office notices, let’s see how long that takes. I’m taking this blog over to do as I please. Let’s start with a nice stamped letter piece. Upper case works, huh?
How B2B Marketers Invest Their Budget
Posted by Administrator | Filed under Point of View
Over the past few years there have been numerous surveys conducted and articles written assessing the shift of marketing budgets from traditional media to new media. Most of the information I have gathered has come through articles that have provided limited data points and I have been looking for some current, robust research that I could assess for myself. Well, I recently came across a survey that fulfilled that desire. I thought you might find the data interesting, and maybe even a little surprising. Read the rest of this entry…
