What's up with the rubber ducks on cruise ships? The cruising rubber duck game.

Taking a cruise? Or maybe you just got off a ship and saw rubber ducks randomly placed around the ship. 

A few years ago a trend of hiding rubber ducks onboard for others to find took off. It became so popular that several cruise lines have banned the duck custom and crew will dispose of any rubber duckies found hidden on the ship.  

Does the official duck ban have your interest in these scavenger hunts more than ever?

Thank you 3.3 million followers!

Imagine 3.3 million people! Where do I start?  Who knew where it would lead when I started blogging on occasion? Some of the topics I blog about have been spun off onto their own blogs. The very popular bloggers get millions of followers, one day I may generate those numbers but not yet.  

When I saw some famous Instagram or Tic-Tok blogger mentioned on the news, and the number of people checking out their content it got me curious and I went to check the stats on my own blogs. Nope, not millions but it's cool to see there are a few of my blogs getting traffic. I think it's great a few dozen of you reading the content I publish on my blogs. Remember if it's interesting, entertaining or you just like something, reblog, share, like, follow, etc.  Next stop a thousand visitors a day. Check out a few of my blog sites:

Voice Mail Systems: Our Options Have Changed

Ever notice that every voice mail system tells you to listen to all options because their menu has changed?

No matter if it was your first call to the business or you've been calling for 5 years. The same message. The same options. Press one for xyz, press two for billing, press zero to reach an operator. And so on.

If you really want people to listen to options, change up the menu every few hours. Keep us engaged. Annoyed, sure. But fully engaged.

Now the archives of RENEGADE NEWS have been released to the Worldwide Web.

As many stories from RENEGADE NEWS (circa mid/late 1980s) as we could preserve have been scanned and loaded into cyberspace.

How to know if a shy guy likes you without talking

Is he really just shy?

An excerpt from Traci Brown, Body language expert:
Most of our communication happens non-verbally, without talking. So watching your shy guy will tell you more than his words ever will.
If he makes eye contact with you just immediately before he steps out of a room, even when he’s with his buddies or co-workers, it’s a sure sign he’s interested in you.
When you catch him starting at you from across the room and he looks away the instant you catch him, he’s probably into you. Science has proven that it’s not the length of his stare that indicates his level of interest; it’s the frequency of his stares. So if you catch him more than a few times, it’s a dead giveaway that you’re irresistible to him...
