Weekend Wonderings: Blue and Gold Pages, and some other stuff

This is an idea that Rocky and I tossed around over a year ago ... for a couple of different reasons, it's popped up in my head again this morning.

How often have you struggled with finding the right person to do some work for you? From landscaping to a Chief Financial Officer, picking the best from many (sometimes hundreds) of possibilities can be daunting.

How often have you struggled in letting folks know you're looking for work? From landscaping to a CFO, getting the word out there that you're looking for a gig (or a full-time job) can be daunting.

That's where the Blue and Gold Pages would come in ...

Think of it as a two-way Yellow Pages for those of us who marched in the Saints: If you have something to offer (products, services, or yourself for a job), you list your business (or yourself!). If you're looking for a product, a service, or someone to hire, you post your need. In either case, you can check out what's available, or what people are looking for.

Look at it this way - there's little to hide since we all knew each other back when, umm ... well, you fill in the blank! We also know what we've become, and the great potential that comes from working together.

Sound like something you're interested in? Let us know at saintsdrumcorps@gmail.com.

And now for something completely different ... today marks the one year anniversary of us gathering at Menlo Park Mall for the first time in a long time. The meeting was SUPPOSED to be about planning a reunion, but to no one's surprise, was all about reconnecting with family (click here to read the Scribblings entry from that night).

So, have you signed up for the Reunion yet? It's easy - click on this link to get started!

Finally, to Babe and Bill (my father and father-in-law), to all you guys with kids, and to all my other friends and family members with daughters and sons, a Happy Father's Day to you!

All for now - corpsdially yours from jo!
