Seems as though I’ve been at this for a while now. How do I know? I’ve come across my first repeat event: the Fairtrade Fortnight. Way back in 2006March, when I was just beginning this thing I came across an article about Ms. Porter and her support of the event. Well, it’s just about […]
You remember Jodi, right? The American Inventor finalist whose HeadlineIt! is due to hit the shelves this year?
Well, she recently updated me what’s been going on in her neck of the woods, and I thought I’d share:
First, the HeadlineIt! is due out in May or June, a few months later than initially projected. Not only […]

OK, so the Tesco Christmas article indicated that Ms. Porter would be appearing in a circus-themed reality show. Hospital? Circus? Sometimes it’s a toss up.
