Today was a crazy day over lunch, but things have calmed down, and there’s only 1/2 hour before the van leaves, so here’s some collected links for you:
- Trading Spaces. Back when Trading Spaces was on the air, I used to enjoy Paige Davis, whose real name is Mindy Paige Davis Page, or Paige Page. I mention this because Lauren Bush just got married…to the son of Ralph Lauren. That’s right. She’s Lauren Lauren, but will go by Lauren Bush Lauren. … Well, I’m amused by it.
- Changing Standards. As we were speaking of the Bushes, a nice article about how Ronald Reagan probably wouldn’t be a suitable candidate for most Republicans these days. The article actually had me thinking much better of Reagan.
- Selling, Part I. An interesting article on how car dealers are making dealerships spiff up their showrooms to attrack more customers.
- Selling, Part II. Another interesting article on why Trader Joes is so successful.
- Growing Your Own. In a predictable response to the recession, vegetable gardens are seeing a comeback.
- No Wisdom. According to the NY Times, you may not need to proactively remove those wisdom teeth.
