That's right, Roger is back. From where, you might ask. Well, it starts with a can of peaches. Yes, the world's luckiest man waltzed into Schnucks two weeks ago, bought an "ordinary" can of sliced peaches ::heart quickens::, and won a free vacation to Africa! I have never won anything in my ENTIRE life, so this came as a pleasant surprise. I had ( Read more... )

I have never gotten more than a $50 dollar raise in my life, and my boss is considering ( Read more... )
