Signatures, Small Businesses, and Screen Names

    I'm pretty sure my UPS guy lied to me.  I [used to] have a good relationship with him since I am a steadfast Amazon Prime fan.  My package was due to be delivered yesterday.  Last night I checked the tracking site, apparently the attempted delivery was unsuccessful because I was "unavailable" to sign.  First, I was definitely home.  Second, I definitely can hear my doorbell in any room since my apartment is all of 600 square feet.  Third, when I got home today the package was here, on my doorstep,  no signature required.  I think someone was hungry and wanted to celebrate Eid ul-Fitr with the fam rather than deliver my package.  Actually, that's understandable.

    Three local Pittsford boys founded Enertia Beverage, a company targeting the desire of seemingly every 20-something guy: energy drinks (no, not Megan Fox). I always like seeing the success of people from my hometown.  Economists are saying that now (yes, with the economy tanking) is actually one of the best times to start a new business.  Case in point: shows like Shark Tank and companies like Kiva.

    I feel bad for people born 20 years from now.  Their screen names and gmail addresses are going to have to be really creative.  All the good ones are taken.
