Charlie Daniels for GEICO

January 8th, 2010

Just saw a commercial for GEICO starring Charlie Daniels. It is one of their new series that starts with the questions, “Does GEICO save you money on car insurance?” And they answer with another questions, which leads into the rest of the commercial, “Does Charlie Daniels know how to fiddle?”

The rest of the commercial show Charlie playing his fiddle in great form, the bow is frayed and he finishes with a florish, saying, “That’s how it is done!”

I love Charlie Daniels and I’m tickled that he is doing this commercial for GEICO, even though I will never buy insurance from them again.

Screw me once, shame on you. Screw me twice, shame on me.

Hoping that 2010 Will Be Good To Us All

January 1st, 2010

As 2009 comes to a close, I am glad to see that year end. It was not, overall, a good year for me or my family.

We are welcoming 2010 with high hopes for a better year. We need a return to prosperity and security, and are willing to work for it. Let’s get busy and see what we can do!
