… when it’s 90 degrees outside, 85 degrees inside, no air conditioning, and noisy as hell because there are concrete contractors running around your yard digging, filling, hammering, and pouring concrete for the new patio and sidewalks. To make it worse, I had to close all the windows so the color powder doesn’t blow inside…
If you didn’t read yesterday’s entry, start there. Select Comfort’s corporate headquarters is based in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Above is the traffic map for my site today. The darker the green, the higher the percentage of traffic originated there. Needless to say, my Twitter campaign to better inform potential Select Comfort customers was being heard in…
Since RandomThoughts101 asked, yes, we did make it down to the Wing Festival. The wings were, as always, excellent.

I’m catching up on my blog-reading and ran across this post on BuffaloPundit’s blog about “The Office”.

Hi! I write you for different reasons. The first one to tell you I enjoyed your pics from Belgium. I went there last year and I think it’s an awesome place. The other reason is because we share the same lastname, this is: Punaro. I am mexican, and back there all the people that share this lastname are the descendents of the late Mr. José Asuncion Punaro (this is my grandfather from my mother’s side). The funny thing is that we don’t know the origen of the Punaro name. So, each time I have a chance, I seach to see if by any chance I find a clue. Some time ago I was told it is from northen Italy. Do you have an idea? Thank and hope you don’t bother for using this space that I imagine it’s reserved for your family and close friends.
The name does originate in Italy. Somewhere, I have some images of Ellis Island records of my ancestors coming over to the U.S. I’ll post them when I have a chance. I do not know where the Mexican branch would have started!
