Follow Friday: The Graceland Edition

Estimated Reading Time: 3 minutes

One of the things that struck me about Elvis’ former home on our recent road trip through Tennessee was just how comfortable it looks.

Five Ways to Show Twitter Love

Estimated Reading Time: 5 minutes

It’s a cliché. A “Hallmark holiday.” “Every day should be Valentine’s Day.”

Ever heard – or made – any of those remarks?

I confess; I have, and I think they have a ring of truth. But cliché or not, Valentine’s Day is a way – admitted, perhaps born of artifice and over-commercialized – to show one’s appreciation and affection to those who make your life better.

To me, that includes my Twitterverse. So, for those of you who have fallen in love with […]
