BOSS B.O.
Tuesday, January 29th, 2013
Time for the week’s listener email!
Katy -
My boss is a good guy, and everyone at the office likes him a lot. There’s one problem: He has the worst BO ever.
Should we tell him he needs to work on his personal hygiene, for his own good? And if we do…how?
-Steve
Steve,
SO MANY QUESTIONS. Do you work all that closely with your boss?
I would avoid the problem unless you say, shared an office together. Maybe invest in some Febreeze?
There’s no good way to tell someone their @*!& stinks.. OR IS THERE?
What do you think?!

Fashion Friday
Friday, January 25th, 2013
This week’s fashion Friday theme was simple enough- I needed an amazing dress for a Special Olympics banquet on Saturday night that wouldn’t break my bank.
So where did I go this time? Merge boutique.
Dress shopping is always something that freaks me out. I’m bigger in different areas, and having a little curve can be difficult to squeeze into a dress!
But, as soon as I got in the store, I noticed many different dresses perfect for ANY occasion. Formal, casual, leather, lace, you name it, they had some variation in stock.
I went with the dress on the left. A purple bondage top with flowing grey skirt, perfect for my event! Another girl was trying it on while I was in there, and even though we had different body types, it was flattering on both of us.
When I saw the price, I almost died. Everything in the store is under $50. I had money left over to splurge on jewelry.. so I did.
I couldn’t decide between the earrings and the necklace..
I almost always want to buy earrings, but I never wear them. I don’t know why – I just don’t. So the necklace won out. And what I liked about this design is they have several different variations. The chunky shapes and fun colors just spice up any dress.
And shoes? You can’t go wring with a basic black pump or stiletto. Thankfully, if you are missing this fashion necessity, they’ve got you covered.
I wanted to hold off on a picture of me in the dress, and instead have decided to upload the pics from the banquet with all my favorite Special Olympic athletes!
Whether you’ve got a sorority formal/semi-formal OR just want a knock out dress for Valentines day, I would definitely suggest a trip to Merge. Like these guys on facebook for their latest looks. 
Happy Friday!

Does CS Know?!
Wednesday, January 23rd, 2013
Here are the answers to this week’s questions.
Who was the main author of the Declaration of Independence?
Congress appointed a Committee of Five to draft a statement to the world presenting the colonies’ case for independence. The committee consisted of John Adams of Massachusetts, Roger Sherman of Connecticut, Benjamin Franklin of Pennsylvania, Robert R. Livingston of New York and Thomas Jefferson of Virginia. The committee assigned Jefferson the task of writing the original document. After minor alterations were subsequently made by Franklin and Adams, the document was submitted to Congress.
Two passages in Jefferson’s draft were rejected by the Congress — an intemperate reference to the English people and a scathing denunciation of the slave trade. Otherwise, the Declaration was adopted without significant change…..and through it all, Jefferson was its primary author.
The Declaration of Independence made Jefferson internationally famous.
What device measures atmospheric pressure?
And here’s a picture of the handy gadget.
Who says you can’t learn anything on the internet!
How would you have done?!

Do Random Strangers Have the Right to Give You PET ADVICE?!
Tuesday, January 22nd, 2013
Time for this week’s LISTENER EMAIL:
Katy,
I flew home recently to spend time with my family, and I have a little dog that I brought with me.
She fits in one of those dog carriers that goes under a plane seat, so I paid the fee and brought her on the plane.
But while I was waiting to board, a woman next to me started talking about how it’s mean to make your dog fly. She said it’s selfish for people to do it, and dangerous because it stresses the animals out. I just knew I would be gone for a few weeks, boarding costs a FORTUNE and not to mention Daisy would have a fit if she had to spend the week without me.
Thankfully I sat no where near this psycho on the flight, but it STILL bothers me she did that.
I mean do people really just think they know everything? Did I make a mistake or is flying with your animal okay?
-Laurie
Laurie,
You’re telling me some random person went ape $&#^ on you at the airport for traveling with your best friend?! NOT OKAY.
I don’t see anything wrong with what you did. I’ve never taken a long vacation without Rocky. In fact, if I go away for just a weekend he flips out.
*The Rock*
My problem with this story is THIS LADY!
Do strangers have the right to give other people advice about their pets? Isn’t it sort of the same thing as telling a person how to raise their kids?
What do you think?!
