Wow! This is interesting. Richard Branson is about as successful as you can get and guess what he thinks is important in an employee!
I pass this along because texting and the iPhones seem to have left "personality" in the dust. I see a lot of young college kids come and go in this building and it never ceases to amaze me how difficult it is for them to even say "hello".
I focus on personality before qualifications. How do you hire? http://t.co/A48MIoHwHB @VirginStartUp

FIGSHey kids, it's Fig Newton Day. I'm sure Fig Newton's are about the most delicious thing you can eat but I can't stand figs. Go figure. Since I won't be eating mine, go ahead and help yourself.
OSCAR
The Oscar nominations have been announced and, again, I wasn't nominated. Since I quit drinking my performances aren't what they used to be.

DOGS
Three cheers for the Westminster Dog Show. For the first time, ever, mixed-breeds will be welcomed in.
IT AIN'T FAIR
They've had a mild winter in Europe and in Great Britain they're already seeing signs of spring!
DUMBEST NEWS STORY
The most ridiculous story I saw, this morning, came from a researcher at a university in London who released a statement that says her research shows that "drinking is bad for your memory". I wonder how many drunks she had to interview before she figured that one out. Give me a break. Sometimes I think the more education they get the dumber they are.
WINDY DAKOTA
This is going to be a bad hair day in South Dakota. Rapid City will see wind gusts to 65 MPH and it will be gusting to 58MPH in Sioux Falls.
PENNYS
Glad to see our Penny store survived the chopping block. 5 Penny stores will be closed in Wisconsin.
I used to love shopping at Pennys. I hope they can turn it around.
CONGRESS
Prohibition went into effect on this date in 1920. The greatest gift our government ever gave to organized crime.
BIRTHDAY
RONNIE MILSAP turns 71 today!
MORE SNOW
We'll, probably, pick up another inch of snow today with wind gusts to 35 MPH. Wind chills will be 10 to 25 below zero tonight into tomorrow morning.
Another 2 to 3 inches of snow can be expected tomorrow night into Saturday morning.

HOW MUCH SLEEP DO YOU NEED?

HERE'S A STAIRWAY THAT REALLY MAKES A STATEMENT!

RITA AND I LIVE WITH SEASONAL AFFECTIVE DISORDER
Aunt Edna had it. It's a miserable form of depression caused by the shorter days with less light and more dark.
Here is one of the goofiest things I've seen that's supposed to help "brighten" your days. I don't know if it works but I know I wouldn't want to wear it out in public!
A wagon train from Yankton to Mitchell and Pierre will be a highlight of the SD 125th Anniversary of statehood... http://t.co/WZ6QL3KrOe

GOT A HEAVY FOOT?STAY OUT OF FINLAND!
If you're caught speeding there the fine you pay depends on your annual income. If you make enough, your ticket could cost you thousands of dollars!!
