Qualification...he was talking about lagers, IPAs - craft beers. He has not seen lagers in cans recently.

There is a trend toward cans among craft breweries, partly driven by ecological concerns and partly because tourist hot spots where you can walk about with an open container usually ban glass.

Watching The Last Dance. Michael Jordan struck a deal in his rookie year with Nike to produce Air Jordans. A new concept for sports stars to have branding. Nike predicted that at the end of year four they would have sold $3M worth. But instead, after year one they had sold $126M worth!!! Wow...

makes me wonder how he structured the deal?
salary or percentage of gross, although there wasn't any moss growing on him, I suspect he took a piece of the pie.

Participating in a birthday car parade tomorrow for a friend's granddaughter. Picked up a gift I ordered from Target "curbside delivery" spent part of the evening getting it wrapped, etc. If I was talented, I'd make a sign. I'll bring my cameras, maybe hop out of the car and take photos from a distance with the zoom. The little girl is going to be six.

Well that was fun! Got a chocolate cup cake too!
You know how how companies change their web sites to "better serve you"? Our bank just did that. I went online to pay bills and the entire web site was different I used to see account balances at a glance, could see what bills were set for payment, what had processed, etc. Well I had to hunt around to find bill pay. The only thing visible on the first page was the account info and current balance. I finally found what I wanted, biatched to Rick about the whole deal and thought, "well that's progress."
Next time I went on line there was a notice that they "heard your feedback and apologize for difficulties you have encountered with navigation." Sometimes it's good to know you are not alone in cursing out a new and improved web site!
