Tip of the Day Where Was I?

Have you ever found yourself looking for the last place you were working in a long MS Word document? You know, you were working on something somewhere in the middle when you last saved and closed it out.

When you reopened the document, the cursor was on page one, in the top left hand corner. So, there you are, patiently scrolling through the mess, trying to find your lost location.

Want a quick way to go right back to the last place you edited?

Next time you need to return to the exact location of your last edit, simply try Shift + F5.

Something to Think About by Jan Tincher

Do you want to make a change in your life? Here's how.

Write down all the yeses in your life, then beside it make a list of all the nos.

All the yeses mean *Yes! This is what I want and will do in my life!*

All the nos mean *No! I will no longer tolerate this in my life!*

What do you have?

You have all the things you believe in and all the things you will not tolerate, right in front of you. Live your life accordingly.

Food for Thought

Marketing to Many Cultures

America used to be called "the melting pot" because it was considered a place where many cultures came to exist together and melt into each other. Today the more PC term for America is the "salad bowl," implying that we exist together, but don't really blend.

I would say we are somewhere in between; different cultures affect each other, but maintain their own traits, characteristics, and beliefs.

But in such a vastly diverse environment, how is a marketer to reach such a varied audience?

For one thing, you have to understand that no ad, article, or release is going to be appropriate for everyone. If you want to reach out to multicultural markets, try a series of ads, each focusing on a different audience. If that's too expensive, make an effort to incorporate elements of what would appeal to different cultures into an ad. But be careful not to go overboard.

The most important thing to do before you try to reach multicultural audiences is to understand them, just as you would any target demographic. What do different cultures value? What do they want? Don't rely on stereotypes and never make assumptions. Educate yourself before you attempt any marketing.

Hair Treatment
-=-=--=-=-=-=-=

Trying to control my dry hair, I treated my scalp with olive oil before washing it. Worried that the oil might leave an odor, I washed my hair several times.

That night when I went to bed, I leaned over to my husband and asked, "Do I smell like olive oil?"

"No," he said, sniffing me. "Do I smell like Popeye?"

A priest was walking along the corridor of the parochial school near the pre-school wing when a group of little ones were trotting by on the way to the cafeteria.

One little lad of about three or four stopped and looked at him in his clerical clothes and asked, "Why do you dress funny?"

He told him he was a priest and this is the uniform priests wear.

Then the boy pointed to the priest's plastic collar tab and asked, "Do you have an owie?"

The priest was perplexed till he realized that to him the collar tab looked like a Band Aid. So the priest took it out and handed it to the boy to show him. On the back of the tab are raised letters giving the name of the manufacturer.

The little guy felt the letters, and the priest asked, "Do you know what those words say?"

"Yes I do," said the lad who was not old enough to read. Peering intently at the letters he said, "Kills ticks and fleas up to six months!"

The sharing of marriage....

The old man placed an order for one hamburger, French fries and a drink.

He unwrapped the plain hamburger and carefully cut it in half, placing one half in front of his wife.

He then carefully counted out the French fries, dividing them into two piles and neatly placed one pile in front of his wife.

He took a sip of the drink, his wife took a sip and then set the cup down between them . As he began to eat his few bites of hamburger, the people around them were looking over and whispering..

Obviously they were thinking, 'That poor old couple - all they can afford is one meal for the two of them.'

As the man began to eat his fries a young man came to the table and politely offered to buy another meal for the old couple. The old man said, they were just fine - they were used to sharing everything.

People closer to the table noticed the little old lady hadn't eaten a bite. She sat there watching her husband eat and occasionally taking turns sipping the drink.

Again, the young man came over and begged them to let him buy another meal for them. This time the Old woman said 'No, thank you, we are used to sharing everything.'

Finally, as the old man finished and was wiping his face neatly with the napkin, the young man again came over to the little old lady who had yet to eat a single bite of food and asked 'What is it you are waiting for?'

She replied, The teeth. . .

An Ivy league theology professor was out visiting a friend at a local rural community college. She was asked to teach the class that day and she agreed. She started the class by asking the students, "What is the opposite of joy?"

"Sadness," said one student.

"And the opposite of depression?"

"Elation," said another.

"And how about the opposite of woe?"

A tall beanpole of a young man raised his hand. "I believe that would be giddy up," he drawled.

The Dollar Stretcher
by Gary Foreman

Christmas Budget

We're quickly getting to the point where you can tell who's ahead and who's behind schedule with all their holiday activities. I freely admit that our family always seems to be behind. I'd like to say that it's because we're so busy, but it could just be that we're slow!

Speaking of slow, that could be a keyword in Christmas shopping this year. Sales could be slow for retailers. And, if that happens, they're likely to be aggressive in cutting prices. Even before Christmas. So shopping slowly could save you some money. Normally, you wouldn't want to wait to the last minute, but this could be the exception to the rule.

This is definitely the time to do as much comparison price shopping as you can, especially if you can do it on your computer. Some stores could be much more aggressive in trying to move inventory. A lot depends on how healthy their business is.

In any case, I hope that you're sticking to your Christmas budget. And, that the budget is causing you to spend more time thinking about the people who you're buying for and why they're important to you.
