Gabriele in Planning, on June 1, 2013 at 12:53 PM

Ladies and gents! I am torn. I am totally NOT manstream when it comes to music. Love classical, opera, classic rock, progressive rock/metal - it just needs to be complicated and artsy. But I also...

Escort card sign wording - please give feedback

Ours will be a wedding morning 5k. We both run and love the running community and race atmosphere. Our venue is right by wonderful trails. We will be holding a wedding morning 5k for ourselves and our...

Here is the question. If you were to receive a gift card from your boss thanking you for your work, would you appreciate it or think "whatever" ... If you like the gift card idea, what kind of gift...
