We’re back on the air today as we have all our computer glitches fixed, I hope.  Anyway we have lots to cover on the show today, news for two weeks, a prize pack to giveaway plus we’ll cover the calendar of events. I appreciate everyone’s e-mails and comments making sure that everything was okay. I can assure you that they are. When things go smoothly all is good, when they don’t it’s like trying to get out of quick sand which I’m sure many of you can relate too. As always thanks to the company’s and associations who have given goodies away for the prize pack giveaway. And thanks to all of you who continue to support our efforts here!   (Pictured is the August Prize Pack Giveaway, all the way from the Northwoods of Wisconsin)
