Happy St. Patty's Day! Do you see the leprechaun?

Well since we do not have a big St. Patty's day celebration here in Scottsboro I was feeling the need to get in the spirit of the holiday. To do this I decided to pull up one of my favorite St. Patrick Day clips. It may not be as exciting as watching a parade drinking green beer but it sure is funny.


The Leprechaun Sighting in Mobile in 2006!

(I don't know what they smoke in South Alabama but must be good.)



Movie Review!


I would give it 4.5 stars, we both really liked this movie. It was long (2 hours and 45 min.) and not filmed the way I expected but one of the best movies I've seen in a long time. So next time you are at the video store pick it up.

Upcoming Trip to Louisville

Adam and I will be in Louisville this coming weekend (March 20-22nd) and looking very much forward to it! Adam has been wanting to go to the annual trucking show that Louisville hosts each year and it worked out that this year's show fit into our schedule. The Mid-America Trucking Show 2009 to be exact.

For those that don't know Adam is a terminal manager (is over the Scottsboro office) for Mason Dixon Truck Lines out of Warren, Michigan so he should enjoy the show. Our plan is to get there on Thursday evening and stay until Sunday. Our next trip up will be in May, probably either Derby or Mother's Day Weekend we'll see.

Snow at Auburn!?!

We got a little snow over the weekend but actually south of us got most of it. Here are some pictures of the snow that fell at Auburn! I never saw snow at Auburn so I am sure it was a site to see! Enjoy!

Economic Woes

Well I am staying busy at work these days which is good, unfortunately it is filing unemployment claims for those currently laid off. The plant that I work at has stopped production from February 21st through hopefully April 1st. This means that all of our hourly production employees and 11 salary employees directly tied to production are being temporarily laid off until we start back up. Since my main duties lie in HR my job is safe for now. The company I work for make high tenacity yarn that is used primarily in airbag fabric which is obviously directly tied to automotive production and sales. I will keep you posted on any changes. So, go buy a new car!

Here is a link to info about the company I work for.
