National Cowboy Day (7/25) What did the cowboy do when he thought he had 100 cattle…but when he counted there were only 98?  He rounded them up.  Figures, right? “Courage is being scared (to share a joke like that) and saddling up anyway”.  Thank John Wayne for that one. Now I’m thinking you’ve “herd” that before.

It matters. For me, you’re my customer while reading this right now…hope the thoughts and dad jokes don’t drive you away.  :0)

National Give Something Away Day (7/15) I have a suggestion…it costs nothing but it lasts a long time.Give somebody a compliment today.  A little compliment can make it a big day for somebody.
