I know this is off my business card topic. But, I am excited anyways and wanted to share. I am going to be an Eagle Scout sponsor for the Eagle Scout banquent. My boss paid the fees for me. Wasn’t that nice. They pair you off with an Eagle Scout of 2004 that has a similar intrest in an occupation. I told him about, he said he would pay for it for me. I told him I could do half, he said, no, no, Steve. This is for a good reason and it helps young people. I was like well Thanks you. What goes on is, at the banquent they honor all the young men that attained the rank of Eagle in 2004. They have a dinner and make a special presentation to each of them. I had one of these, I got my Eagle in 1994, and my banquest was in 2005. How cool is that, exactly 10 years ago. Wow, I must be getting old. Anywho. Just wanted to pass on the good news. Thank you The Knoxville Journal!

Today was my daughters 100th day of school this year. The school celebrated by doing 100 days theme. They wanted the kids to bring in 100 of something they collect or something that they can bring in of 100. So she got to bring in 100 of her business cards. She was so excited to do that. She is a collector just like her daddy. She has a tiny collection, maybe of about 3,000 give her take a few or so. She usually gets most of my duplicates. Just wanted to share this with you all!

Oh yea, this is off my business card topic, but there is this cool web site. It can track where your money has been and where it goes after you have it. If you have ever wondered where it goes and where it has come from, check this web site out. Where’s George. Enter in some information about the bill and it will let you know who has entered that bill before you and will continue to track that bill and show you where the bill gets entered in next. Be sure to tell you friends and family to do this too. The more bills entered in the more chances of getting hits on these bills of who has had them or who will get them. You never know someone you know might have had their hands on it or will have their hands on it!

Today was a good day at the dealership. Our sales rep. let me rumage through his box and pull out one of each of his designs. I also got to go to the desk around us and pull one from their business card holders. I think I got about 30 total from there. BTW, we got a new-used car! We traded in our 1994 Mercury and now own a 2001 Nissan! It is a sweet ride! My total amount of business cards now have reached over 52,600. Only 400 more to go for my Easter goal. If this keeps it up, I might get that goal early and have to set up my secondary goals. If I have to do that, I will make a posting about my secondary goals. Thanks for the help with our new car and the business cards Daryl Casteel. If you need a new or used car, let me know I can tell you where to go here in Knoxville! I would highly recommend this place. I even got to talk with mechanics and such and they helped explain some other guestions we have.

The last few days have been really good for business cards. I got a business card autographed from a person that does a lot of walk on roles, they have been on movies, tv, commericals and plays, etc. I even got a bunch of them from England. But, today I did get a nice small box from unknown person that had about 99 business cards in it. Thanks to everyone who has sent me business cards and to those who are sending me business cards. My total now is 53,500! Go me! Spread the word and let everyone know about me and to have them send me business cards.

I just wanted to let you know that I updated my website. I change the image map on the index page and I changed my header on all the pages. I also changed my side business card graphic. I stopped using the international business cards and now using the famous ones I have. Well that is not all I have, just a few of them. LOL Check out my web site, before I update it again with different graphics and look. I am going to try to keep it looking different, my about me info is always updated, so feel free to check it out. I am always adding or taking info away on it.
