We loved our stay at this ultra modern, spacious hotel in the middle of Tokyo. It was so easy to get around everywhere as the hotel is on-top of one of the few metros with four stops on and extremely close to two additional stops. The staff too was extremely helpful; from pointing out the local noodle joint to booking... More

A while back,I blogged about British pop singer Mika and his catchy little – and yet, quite big – ditty, Big Girls, You Are Beautiful. (Go listen, but don't hold me responsible if you can't get it out of your mind for 48 hours.)
Sample lyrics:
Diet coke and a pizza please
Diet coke I'm on my knees
Screaming 'Big girl you are beautiful'
You take your skinny girl
Feel like I'm gonna die
'Cause a real woman
Needs a real man here's why
You take your girl
And multiply her by four
Now a whole lotta woman
Needs a whole lot more
Now, a new group is singing out in praise of change, in an effort to change the shape of pop: The Glamazons. The Glamazons are a plus-size singing ensemble whose mission is to show the world that talent comes in all sizes. The fierce foursome consists of Lady Finger (Meryl Finger), Candy Apple (Sandra May), Caramella (Laura Johnson) and Ginger Snapp (Sarah Orr). These ladies gained a ton of fans in 2007 when they were on NBC's America's Got Talent, where they made it to the Final Eight, and were featured in Torrid's Spring 2008 advertising campaign.
The Glamazons have launched a fan-based fundraising campaign with a goal of raising $90,000 to cover the costs of making and promoting the album. Says Gingersnap: "We don't fit the record-industry mold and we don't want to. By funding our album through donations, we're giving real people the power to decide who they think should be pop stars. This is a way for our supporters to say that beauty and talent comes in every shape and size." You can pitch in $5 and up at their website; a donation of $15,000 will net you a NY or LA shopping spree with The Glamazons. (FYI Not to detract from their mission or anything, but if you buy me a frozen yogurt, I'll go shopping with you FOR FREE!)
PS Watch The Glamazons join forces with Mika in concert here – love the giant blow-up woman who is erected at 2:10!

Steelers will have seven days to match contract. Terry McCormick
After having lost Mike Wallace, the Pittsburgh Steelers may be in danger of losing another key wide receiver.
Restricted free agent Emmanuel Sanders has signed an offer sheet with the New England Patriots, according to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.
Sanders received a $1.323 million tender offer from the Steelers, meaning Pittsburgh would receive a third-round pick (the round Sanders was selected in) if they elect not to match the Patriots' offer.

Down and Out hacked onto a Sony ebook reader
Peter sez, "Here's Phillip Torrone reading 'Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom' on a Sony Librié. The Librié is the first device that uses the incredibly cool e-ink technology co-developed by Philips and Sony; according the a few scattered reports, it's like reading actual paper. The Librié, being a Sony device, comes with the dumbest DRM ever: a library of 400 titles that evaporate off of your device in 60 days. Not no more! Here's a wiki on the Librié that has some software you can use to create Librié books from ASCII files."

Love is complicated and confusing, that's what! But it doesn't have to be. Save 50% off an 11-Card Love Celtic Cross Tarot reading now for answers to all your love questions!
Hexagram of the Day
20: Overview
Overview is a time for composure and contemplation. As a result of profound introspection, a hidden force reveals itself, and may influence others without their being aware of it. Do not underestimate the power of such a subtle force. Like the wind blowing across the treetops, its presence is perceived through the effect it has on everything it touches.
Shallow wells rarely strike water and shallow minds often come up empty. The ability to keep still and simply observe deepens resolve and attracts good fortune. Discern the difference between what is deep and what is surface within yourself — and you will be able to distinguish between the two in the world as well.
During a period between events, the practice of stillness with awareness is fruitful. Only by observing and absorbing the true nature of things — by apprehending the rhythms and cycles that guide all creation — can we discover the laws that apply to our own individual lives. Examine yourself and the overall situation — not just with the thought of discovering truth, but with the vision of concentrating your personal power.

Heating pellets prove to be in short supply in NH
Anyone who did not pre-buy wood pellets this year is likely to find them in short supply for the rest of the winter. (UNION LEADER FILE)
"We usually get them at the local Agway," she said, "but they were in short supply and what they had was committed to customers who'd made pre-buys."
"When I said, 'Your ad says you never run out,' she just hung up on me," Newby said.
Demand outstrips supply
"Five or six years ago, it was common practice to buy pellets in the spring or summer, when inventories were plentiful, and sock it away in the garage," he said. "We've seen consumer behavior change in recent years and move in the direction of buying less volume all at once, replenishing constantly over the course of the winter."
Neibling predicted that consumers will return to the old habit of buying early and storing pellets, which will encourage the creation of new production capacity to keep up with demand.
"We've invested tens of millions of dollars in new capacity to keep up with growth in demand," he said, "and I suspect if conventional heating fuels stay expensive, we'll sustain that demand in the future."
"We still have pellets to sell, but it's been a lot tighter than in prior years," he said. "Our suppliers are filling on an allocation basis."
Minimum delivery from Woodpellets.com, however, is one ton, or 50 bags, which is more than a consumer like Newby might want to purchase at any given time. For people trying to find just a few bags, the search can be grueling, as she discovered.
Wood pellets and other fuels are not the only commodities affected by the frequent dips of the polar vortex this winter. Try finding a bag of rock salt.
"No rock salt" signs were visible at hardware outlets and grocery stores throughout the region over the weekend as heavy rain one day turned to solid ice the next.Braen Supply Inc., one of the largest national suppliers of the material, posted this warning recently on its website: "As rock salt continues to be used so frequently, it is becoming extremely difficult for local and national suppliers to keep up with demand. All of these factors are contributing to the rock salt shortage of 2014."

TeamViewer®, one of the world's most popular providers of remote control and online meetings software, today announced the launch of TeamViewer 8. The highly anticipated upgrade expands client service capabilities and provides faster and easier performance for both remote control and online meetings sessions. With the new version, TeamViewer is introducing the new TeamViewer Management Console, a cloud-based administration tool especially addressing the needs of corporate environments and with greater emphasis on accountability, stricter security guidelines and the need for central control of their TeamViewer user accounts.
The TeamViewer Management Console opens up completely new possibilities for support teams in companies large and small. Key features in the new TeamViewer Management Console include comprehensive user management, connection reporting of all sessions and browser-based single-click connections.
Comprehensive User Management
The Management Console offers a new set of user management capabilities. All employees within a company using TeamViewer for IT support services can be managed and controlled centrally over the web-based interface. Some key new capabilities include:
- Setting up a company profile to manage the entire support team
- Setting up, adding or disabling TeamViewer accounts of employees using TeamViewer for IT support
- All support team members get access to important customer information anytime, anywhere, as groups of the Computers & Contacts list can be shared
- Setting read and write permissions for shared groups
- Defining access rights within the TeamViewer Management Console (e.g., who may view connection reports)
Connection reporting of all sessions
Now the start and end times of all TeamViewer connections performed by a support team, whether done from a Windows, Mac or Linux computer, browser-based or from a smartphone, will be automatically stored. Further enhancements include:
- A new comment function enables users to write comments immediately after each support session to better document the support services
- Reports and comments make invoicing easier and more comprehensible for all supporters involved
Browser-based single-click connections
The TeamViewer Management Console offers increased flexibility for IT supporters as well:
- Authentication credentials (ID and password) of important computers and contacts are always at hand, as supporters have browser-based access to their TeamViewer accounts anytime, anywhere
- Remote connections can be started conveniently with a single-click directly from out of the browser-based TeamViewer Management Console
TeamViewer 8 also brings an impressive set of new business tools for users of the remote control and online meetings software. Key new developments include the ability to pass control of a remote session to another expert, local printing from a remote computer, and a deeper Microsoft Outlook integration for increased comfort with online meetings. Overview of the top new advances:
- Session handover: Remote sessions can be handed over easily "on-the-fly" from one expert to another
- Remote printing: Easy remote printing e.g. in your home office from your office computer
- Deeper integration of TeamViewer into Microsoft Outlook allows easy scheduling of online meetings directly in Microsoft Outlook. Meetings will be saved in Outlook calendars
- Transmission of remote sound and real-time video to the local device. Video transmission is available exclusively in licensed connections.
- Enhanced session recording: now sound and video can be recorded for perfect documentation
"Business users and IT administrators increasingly need more command and control of the software they use every day," said Holger Felgner, General Manager at TeamViewer. "TeamViewer 8 does just that by expanding the feature set to not only include useful new tools like session recording and Outlook integration, but also by adding a brand new cloud component that administrators can use to streamline their access and support – anytime, anywhere."
Windows 8 support
TeamViewer 8 is compatible with Windows 8, supporting the specific Windows 8 commands (e.g. the Windows 8 charms bar) on a remote computer directly via the toolbar in the remote control window. From touch screen to touch screen users will experience the simple use of TeamViewer in Windows 8 with the help of modern Multi-Touch-gestures.
Retina support for Mac users
The TeamViewer 8 user interface now also supports the Retina display, enabling a crystal clear view on a Mac Book Pro.
New 24/7 remote access for Linux computers
TeamViewer 8 provides a new system service functionality for Linux computers. With TeamViewer 8 Linux computers can be accessed remotely 24/7 including login, logout and system reboot – making it perfect for server maintenance and home office access.
TeamViewer 8 is available now for Windows, Mac and Linux computers at http://www.teamviewer.com/download.

The security devil is always in the details of the attack: the ones you've endured, the ones you prepare yourself to fend off, and the ones that, you fear, will catch you completely unaware and defenseless. The Internet of Things (IoT) is nothing if not an endless proliferation of details. It's the vision of a world in which continuous Internet connectivity and addressability is embedded into a growing range of human artifacts, into the natural world, and even into our smartphones, appliances, and physical persons. In the IoT vision, every new "thing" - sensor, actuator, data source, data con...

The Internet of Things is tied together with a thin strand that is known as time. Coincidentally, at the core of nearly all data analytics is a timestamp. When working with time series data there are a few core principles that everyone should consider, especially across datasets where time is the common boundary.

How do APIs and IoT relate? The answer is not as simple as merely adding an API on top of a dumb device, but rather about understanding the architectural patterns for implementing an IoT fabric. There are typically two or three trends: Exposing the device to a management framework Exposing that management framework to a business centric logic Exposing that business layer and data to end users. This last trend is the IoT stack, which involves a new shift in the separation of what stuff happens, where data lives and where the interface lies. For instance, it's a mix of architectural styles ...

The Domain Name Service (DNS) is one of the most important components in networking infrastructure, enabling users and services to access applications by translating URLs (names) into IP addresses (numbers). Because every icon and URL and all embedded content on a website requires a DNS lookup loading complex sites necessitates hundreds of DNS queries. In addition, as more internet-enabled 'Things' get connected, people will rely on DNS to name and find their fridges, toasters and toilets. According to a recent IDG Research Services Survey this rate of traffic will only grow. What's driving t...

Scott Jenson leads a project called The Physical Web within the Chrome team at Google. Project members are working to take the scalability and openness of the web and use it to talk to the exponentially exploding range of smart devices. Nearly every company today working on the IoT comes up with the same basic solution: use my server and you'll be fine. But if we really believe there will be trillions of these devices, that just can't scale. We need a system that is open a scalable and by using the URL as a basic building block, we open this up and get the same resilience that the web enjoys.

We are reaching the end of the beginning with WebRTC, and real systems using this technology have begun to appear. One challenge that faces every WebRTC deployment (in some form or another) is identity management. For example, if you have an existing service – possibly built on a variety of different PaaS/SaaS offerings – and you want to add real-time communications you are faced with a challenge relating to user management, authentication, authorization, and validation. Service providers will want to use their existing identities, but these will have credentials already that are (hopefully) i...

3 Candidate Interview Reviews Back to all interviewsSort: Popular Date Difficulty
Beauty Advisor Interview
I applied online. The process took 3+ months – interviewed at Macy's in January 2013.
I had to go through 3 separate interviews in order to get an offer. The first interview was with the Cosmetics Department manager. The second was with the brand executive and the third was with the brand manager and executive. They all asked very similar questions such as why they should hire you, what can you bring to the team and they ask many situational questions. It was overall very easy except for the fact that they take weeks to call back.
- If you gave cream samples to customers and you had to call back and ask them how they liked it, how would you respond to customers who didn't like the product? Answer Question

Beauty Advisor InterviewApplication Details
The process took 2+ months – interviewed at Macy's in March 2012.Interview Details
I applied in January and have gone to 4 interviews in the past 4 months. I am supposed to hear back in the next week or so. Each interview was followed by an interview with a higher up employee. Overall the hiring process is taking longer than expected. If you apply online for the Beauty Advisor position, they usually mean they are hiring counter managers but Macy's just hires under the Beauty Advisor title. (At least that's what I was told) Also even after four months I'm not sure if I'm being considered for an on-call, part time, or full time position because each interviewer gave me a different answer.Interview Questions

Beauty Advisor InterviewApplication Details
I applied online. The process took 6 days – interviewed at Macy's in September 2010.Interview Details
I started by getting a job interview and when I showed up, she was not available. I went back and it happened again, but HR found someone to interview me. I had that interview, then a phone interview, then another interview with a district manager. I was interviewed by the cosmetics manager in a hallway. I was then told I would get a phone interview with another manager and I did. I then was called back for another interview and I was interviewed in the mall in chairs next to lots of people and it was loud and hard to hear. I then had to go talk to a floor manager in her office and there were people coming in and out. I thought it was a very long process, for the job I was getting. I would think for a management position it would be fine, but this was a pt position for selling make-up!
I was hired and went I went in, there was confusion about my paperwork. I trained on the cash register, but I did not think there was much training on make-up application. it was jump in and learn! It worked out.Interview Questions

- It was not a difficult interview, but it took many trips and time to land a $11 an hour job! Be sure to talk about current trends in beauty and where you get your information from-magazines, blogs, vlogs, etc. I was asked typical questions regarding customer service. Answer Question

Israel falls two places in global competitiveness index
(photo credit:Reuters)
Israel dropped two places to 19th in Swiss business school IMD's 2012 World
Competitiveness Index, despite displaying improvement in inbound direct
investment, real GDP growth per capita and the unemployment rate.Hong
Kong maintained its position as the most competitive of the 59 economies ranked
by IMD, edging out the United States, Switzerland, Singapore and Sweden. Qatar
(10th) and the United Arab Emirates (16th) were the top two Middle Eastern
countries.Israel's score of 78.57 from a possible 100 put it directly
behind the United Kingdom and directly ahead of Ireland.The IMD World
Competitiveness Center has published its study every year since 1989. Considered
a leading indicator of economic competitiveness, it assesses countries in four
categories – economic performance, government efficiency, business efficiency
and infrastructure – based on national statistics and surveys of top
executives.Israel improved strongly in the area of direct investment
flows inward, which increased to $11.4 billion (or 4.69 percent of GDP), in 2011
from $5.15b. the previous year. It was also judged positively on real GDP growth
per capita, which rose to 2.98% in 2011 from 2.27% the previous year, and its
unemployment rate, which dropped from 6.6% to 5.6% in 2011.The "Startup
Nation" continued to lead by example in business efficiency and infrastructure,
maintaining its number one ranking for business expenditure on R&D (3.52% of
GDP), total expenditure on R&D (4.41% of GDP), and public and private sector
ventures. It ranked second in entrepreneurship, innovative capacity, scientific
research and several other sub-categories listed under infrastructure.On
the other hand, Israel was punished for its poor current account balance, which
dropped to -0.1% of GDP in 2011 from 2.9% the previous year, and is expected to
fall even further in 2012. It also lost points for its higher rate of
consumer-price inflation, and for direct investment flows abroad – which
decreased to $3.32b. (or 1.37% of GDP) in 2011 from $7.96b. the previous
year.Israel continued to be let down by its economic performance,
ranking 36th in that category for the third successive year. In particular, it
was downgraded for relatively high cost of living, low workforce participation
(38.63% of the population), and exports of goods (27.38% of
GDP).According to the report, Israel's main challenges now are to
maintain growth, reduce bureaucracy and the burden on the business sector;
invest in periphery infrastructure, including education and support of small-
and medium-sized enterprises; increase labor force participation amongst
minority groups; and decrease economic gaps.Federation of Israeli
Chambers of Commerce President Uriel Lynn, whose organization is IMD's local
partner, supported this conclusion, saying that the business community is
disadvantaged by government-level corruption and by the increase of handicaps
imposed by state-owned monopolies such as local municipalities, ports and the
Israel Electric Corporation.IMD also conducted a survey for its yearbook
which showed that Israeli business executives are overwhelmingly positive about
globalization (eighth-most positive out of 59 countries), but a little less
understanding about the need for economic and social reforms
(26th).Notably, Ireland ranked first in both the globalization and
reforms surveys, while France ranked last in both surveys.

SEATTLE, WA -- (Marketwire) -- 01/09/13 -- Avanade®, a global business technology solutions and managed services provider, today announced an agreement with Nokia to create and deliver packaged Nokia Lumia devices, applications and services to large enterprise customers.
As consumer mobile technologies spread into the workplace, employees increasingly want to use their personal devices for business functions. In an Avanade survey, over half (54%) of C-level executives and IT decision-makers report the majority of their employees use smartphones for work functions such as email, web content and calendar invitations. Additionally, many employees (42%) now want to use their own devices for more complex, mission-critical tasks, such as content creation and customer relationship management (CRM), which drive productivity. But greater use of smart devices for business systems requires the development of specialized applications to enable seamless and secure integration.
Avanade and Nokia plan to deliver packaged offerings combining Avanade's application development and system integration services, Microsoft technology and Nokia's Lumia products and related services. Together with Accenture, Avanade and Nokia are also providing enterprise customers with Windows Phone and Microsoft infrastructure expertise to support the pilot adoption and testing of Nokia Windows Phone 8 devices through to production deployments.
Ian Jordan, executive vice president of Sales, Marketing, Innovation and Alliances at Avanade, said, "There is a significant gap in the market for a new class of business-focused mobile services and solutions. Avanade and Nokia are working together to fill this gap; integrating Nokia Lumia smartphones built on Windows Phone 8, with business applications such as Microsoft Office, CRM and access to company information to improve collaboration, productivity and sales."
As an example, Avanade and Nokia are helping a large UK bank to replace its current mobile device platform with Windows Phone 8, integrated with its Microsoft Exchange and SharePoint environments. They are also working with the bank to build a new corporate enterprise hub that will enable employees to access corporate business applications, content feeds and information relevant to the organization, as well as user profiles and other Microsoft SharePoint content. Additionally, Avanade is implementing Mobile Device Management (MDM) to apply security policies to the devices thereby simplifying provisioning and enabling the distribution of corporate business applications directly to the devices.
Niko Mykkänen, global head of B2B Sales at Nokia, said, "The growth in the use of consumer devices at work has created opportunities for businesses, but also vulnerabilities that need to be addressed. Working together, Nokia and Avanade will create business solutions to meet the needs of the enterprise, as well as delivering the exciting user experience which people expect from today's leading smartphones such as Nokia Lumia."

text: Ethics in Business, Government, and Society Mark Tunick & Dan White 1 Nietzsche on Promises: Unpublished Fragments (Nachgelassene Fragmente), spring 1878-Nov. 1879 Human beings cannot hear the tone of a promise and of fulfillment together: for they have to detect something in the promise, which was not there.—So I: I promised the hard truth—freely with some fantastic expression: and now have I knocked over the milk pot of these innocent children.1 (D. White, trans.) Human, All Too Human, I, ii, sec. 58-59, "On the History of Moral Sensations" 58. What one can promise. One can promise actions, but not feelings, for the latter are involuntary. He who promises to love forever or hate forever or be forever faithful to someone is promising something that is not in his power. He can, however, promise those actions that are usually the consequence of love, hatred, or faithfulness, but that can also spring from other motives: for there are several paths and motives to an action. A promise to love someone forever, then, means, "As long as I love you I will render unto you the actions of love; if I no longer love you, you will continue to receive the same actions from me, if for other motives." Thus the illusion remains in the minds of one's fellow men that the love is unchanged and still the same. One is promising that the semblance of love will endure, then, when without self-deception one vows everlasting love. 59. Intellect and morality. One must have a good memory to be able to keep the promises one has given. One must have strong powers of imagination to be able to have pity. So closely is morality bound to the quality of the intellect. ("Nietzsche Channel" Translation. Online: Human, All Too Human, I, ii, 58-59 ) Human, All Too Human, I, ix, sec 629), "Man Alone with Himself" On convictions and justice. To carry out later, in coolness and sobriety, what a man promises or decides in passion: this demand is among the heaviest burdens oppressing mankind. To have to acknowledge for all duration the consequences of anger, of raging vengeance, of enthusiastic devotion—this can incite a bitterness against these feelings all the greater because everywhere, and 1 Die Menschen können den Ton des Versprechens und den Ton der Erfüllung nicht zusammen hören: denn sie haben sich aus dem Versprechen etwas herausgehört, was nicht darin war. — So ich: ich versprach Wahrheits-Härte — freilich mit manchem phantastischen Ausdrucke: und nun habe ich diesen unschuldigen Kindern ihren Milchtopf umgestoßen. Ethics in Business, Government, and Society Mark Tunick & Dan White 2 especially by artists, precisely these feelings are the object of idol worship. Artists cultivate the esteem for the passions, and have always done so; to be sure, they also glorify the frightful satisfactions of passion, in which one indulges, the outbursts of revenge that have death, mutilation, or voluntary banishment as a consequence, and the resignation of the broken heart. In any event, they keep alive curiosity about the passions; it is as if they wished to say: without passions you have experienced nothing at all. Because we have vowed to be faithful, even, perhaps, to a purely imaginary being, a God, for instance; because we have given our heart to a prince, a party, a woman, a priestly order, an artist, or a thinker, in the state of blind madness that enveloped us in rapture and let those beings appear worthy of every honor, every sacrifice: are we then inextricably bound? Were we not deceiving ourselves then? Was it not a conditional promise, under the assumption (unstated, to be sure) that those beings to whom we dedicated ourselves really are the beings they appeared to be in our imaginations? Are we obliged to be faithful to our errors, even if we perceive that by this faithfulness we do damage to our higher self? No—there is no law, no obligation of that kind; we must become traitors, act unfaithfully, forsake our ideals again and again. We do not pass from one period of life to another without causing these pains of betrayal, and without suffering from them in turn. Should we have to guard ourselves against the upsurging of our feeling in order to avoid these pains? Would not the world then become too bleak, too ghostly for us? We want rather to ask ourselves whether these pains at a change of conviction are necessary, or whether they do not depend on an erroneous opinion and estimation. Why do we admire the man who remains faithful to his conviction and despise the one who changes it? I fear the answer must be that everyone assumes such a change is caused only by motives of baser advantage or personal fear. That is, we believe fundamentally that no one changes his opinions as long as they are advantageous to him, or at least as long as they do him no harm. But if that is the case, it bears bad testimony to the intellectual meaning of all convictions. Let us test how convictions come into being and observe whether they are not vastly overrated: in that way it will be revealed that the change of convictions too is in any case measured by false standards and that until now we have tended to suffer too much from such changes. ("Nietzsche Channel" Translation. Online: Human, All Too Human I, ix, 629 ) Daybreak (Morgenröte), Book IV, Sec. 350 How best to promise.—When a promise is made, it is not the word that is said, but what is unspoken behind the word. Indeed, the word makes the promise less powerful [unkräftiger], insofar as it discharges and consumes a power [Kraft] that Ethics in Business, Government, and Society Mark Tunick & Dan White 3 is a part of the power [Kraft] that promises. Therefore let your hand rise and lay your finger on your mouth, --so you will make the surest vows.2 (D. White, trans.) 2 Wie man am besten verspricht. — Wenn ein Versprechen gemacht wird, so ist es nicht das Wort, welches verspricht, sondern das Unausgesprochene hinter dem Worte. Ja, die Worte machen ein Versprechen unkräftiger, indem sie eine Kraft entladen und verbrauchen, welche ein Theil jener Kraft ist, die verspricht. Lasst euch also die Hand reichen und legt dabei den Finger auf den Mund, — so macht ihr die sichersten Gelöbnisse.

Her name was Jill. I know this because that's what it said on the name tag she wore as she checked my groceries at the supermarket. She was bubbly. Perky. Friendly. Upbeat.
Clearly she had to be brought down.
"Have a good one!" she said cheerfully as she handed me my change.
"Have a good what?" I asked.
"A good day!"
I glanced outside the front door.
"It's night," I said.
Her smile didn't dim one watt.
"Then have a good night!"
I shook my head sadly.
"Too late," I said. "It's already been a long, tough night. And it was a long, tough day."
She — shudder! — giggled. "Then have a good sleep! And a great day tomorrow!"
She was tough. Relentless. I had to give her that. But I was determined to outlast her.
"Tomorrow is my dog's funeral," I lied. "He was run over by a steamroller. We're burying him in my backyard. And my neighbor's. And his neighbor's."
She could see where I was going. "Then I hope you have a wonderful funeral," she said, still smiling.
About this time, some of the other people in line at the checkout stand joined the attack.
"I wish I had a funeral to go to tomorrow," the guy behind me said. "That would give me an excuse to skip my income tax audit."
"But isn't it great that the IRS thinks you're worth auditing?" she responded.
"The IRS wouldn't audit me," a woman behind him said. "I don't have any money at all. In fact, the check I'm going to write to pay for these groceries will probably bounce."
"But at least you'll have food tonight!" Jill said. "And the store can't repossess food!"
"Could they repossess my husband?" another woman asked. "He ran off with my mother. They took the kids, the station wagon and the cat. And I really miss that cat."
Jill hesitated a moment. I might have been wrong, but I thought I detected the slight crease of a frown furrowing her brow. But just as quickly as it appeared, she turned it upside down and the engaging smile was back in place.
"Just think of the peace and quiet around the house," she said, "and how much you'll save on cat food!"
She was irrepressible. The small group that had gathered around her check stand broke into smiles, laughter and applause.
