Bold and Better is social commentary and how to do everything better. Organizing your life or labeling your feelings – it’s all here.
I love putting rumors to bed, so let’s do this. You’re complaining that Facebook has “removed” your post, because you’re seeing this: It hasn’t been removed. It just requires a little more attention. Here’s why: It’s not censorship. It’s just one tiny click added. Suck it up and click the button, and you can see…
I listen to a lot of podcasts, way too many I think. One of them referenced another podcast (which is how I got to “way too many”) that always ends the interview with the same question: How do you define GREATNESS? That’s a wonderful question! I’d like to hear a lot of responses to this…

What is this? This is a Spatty. It’s a tiny little device that has made me soooooooooo happy! The spatty has a rigid plastic handle and a soft plastic tip that allows me to scrape down into the sides and bottom of containers to get every last bit of substance. Let me show you. What…

What I would like to create with some help is a very broad-based tech group that will serve several purposes: to foster innovation among individuals outside of a work environment to keep…
Let’s address the elephant in the room: I’m a middle-aged white female, so the viewpoint is going to come from that angle. It’s also important that you know that I do not watch the news, and I’ll explain later why watching any news program is likely to make you less informed than if you didn’t…
I am waiting for someone to create an iPhone app that will allow my scanned coupons to work with my grocery list. I’d love to be able to select “lunch meat” and have the app tell me, “You have a scanned coupon for that. Note it in shopping list?” so that while I”m shopping I’ll…
