Thursday Thoughts: What Are the Odds?
Susan 🐝 Rooks, The Grammar Goddess · I think we all saw the amazing result of the FanDuel Sportsbook's error in posting the odds on a bet a few weeks ago -- and then having several bettors actually jump on it and place bets that paid off HUGE!

Thursday Thoughts: Courtesy and Customer Satisfaction
Susan 🐝 Rooks, The Grammar Goddess · In my last post, I wrote about recently giving a refresher program on manners to some men in a long-term drug rehab.

Thursday Thoughts: More Conversations -- The Sounds of Silence
Susan 🐝 Rooks, The Grammar Goddess · I was reading Entrepreneur magazine the other day, and I found an article entitled “Get Better at Everything,” which is the type of article I usually do NOT read because it’s usually trite stuff.

More Thursday Thoughts: How to Reverse the Curse of the Announcer

Susan 🐝 Rooks, The Grammar Goddess · I just heard myself say again, "Come on, you piece of **** stupid machine. Move faster! I don't have all day. Grrrrrrrrrr." · Guess what?

Thursday Thoughts: "They Didn't Mean to Kill Anyone."

Thursday Thoughts: Diff'rent Strokes, Indeed!
Susan 🐝 Rooks, The Grammar Goddess · All the way home from another excellent business meetup today in Rockland, Mass., I found the phrase "different strokes" churning in my brain.

Thursday Thoughts: "We Have Our Hats"
Susan 🐝 Rooks, The Grammar Goddess · Growing up in a family that owned and ran a few small women's clothing stores in the 1950s and '60s, I often wondered why I didn't like shopping too much.

Thursday Thoughts: Aging
Susan 🐝 Rooks, The Grammar Goddess · I woke up this morning. That's a VERY good thing. · I woke up with a few aches and pains. · That's also a VERY good thing. · Why? · Because although I'm in the last third of my life -- or on the "back nine" as golfers say -- I continue to act as though I'm 20+ years younger.

Thursday Thoughts: What is "Smart," Anyway?
Susan 🐝 Rooks, The Grammar Goddess · A few days ago, I remarked in an LI group I belong to that I needed some help understanding how to send Neil Hughes a voice message on my iPhone.
