Tips for Week of July 22, 2004


THINGS I LEARNED THIS WEEK:

  • Alabama Roadhouse now has Singles Night Out every Thursday evening with live music and no cover charge for ladies.

  • A recent study conducted by the University of Alabama at Huntsville reports that more than 139,000 jobs in Alabama are currently tied to the aviation and aerospace industry.

  • Looking for help with computer lessons, network or software/hardware problems but don't want to lug your computer into the shop? You might want to try The Computer Doctor "We Make House Calls" at 679-4997. 

  • During the Martha Pullen School of Art Fashion going on this week through Sunday, you are invited to come by their retail store in the Von Braun Center. The store will be closed during for lunch 11:45 to 1 p.m. 

  • McDonalds now has a 30-second limit for their drive-through window. The catch: the timing doesn't start until you get to the pick-up window--so they can still hold you hostage in your car while they take your order and your money. 

  • Want to be on a new daytime reality show but don't how? Pat Croce: Moving In is a new show with a motivational speaker looking for families with problems.
