What the Boss Likes – a symbol for being kind
Legend, and reality appears to agree, says during the Great Depression, itinerant workers e.g. hoboes, would let each other know about the conditions of the road and towns that they passed through by using a language of signs. If there was a chance of work, dangerous dogs, vigilant police, that could all be read in … Continue reading What the Boss Likes – a symbol for being kind
What the Boss Likes – Perfumes, movies, etc
Having been sick with the flu for a few days, I watched the latest Bond film, Spectre, and the very first one, Dr. No. Spoilers follow. I've been a Bond film since as long as I can remember; my mom liked them so I got taken along. I watched the movies, then read the books … Continue reading What the Boss Likes – Perfumes, movies, etc
What the Boss Likes – so, do you know anyone who knows medieval German or Austrian?
I have a mystery and I'm asking your help. I have an image, and some calligraphy that may be either German or Austrian, of what looks to be either late Middle Ages or Renaissance. A cousin got this partial copy but he is, alas, not a researcher and didn't get the goodies I need. I … Continue reading What the Boss Likes – so, do you know anyone who knows medieval German or Austrian?

So, if you were a Christian at some point or are … Continue reading What the Boss likes – Holiday nonsense
What the Boss Likes – my favorite thing to watch on Thanksgiving
of course, it's the Addams Family version: Oh I really didn't like summer camp, which was of course a church camp. I'm proudly an outcast. 🙂
What the Boss Likes – we got really cool upholstered chairs!
As the title says, we got really cool upholstered chairs. Some background on this, my husband's parents once did upholstery. And when my mother in law was dying from colon cancer, she asked what we would like. We got a pair of decrepit chairs that my husband loved because they were so comfortable, and a … Continue reading What the Boss Likes – we got really cool upholstered chairs!
What the Boss Likes – a vigilant Amazon.com: always remember to change your passwords often
well, my amazon account got hacked somehow. But thanks to the friendly folks at amazon, it was caught. Now, it's just pure stupid to hack amazon since if you want something other than an electronic document or mp3, you need to put your address in. The address used was to an international courier place: Aramex … Continue reading What the Boss Likes – a vigilant Amazon.com: always remember to change your passwords often
