I made flyers today

I am working to be able to launch my business by Monday. Today, I made some flyers. I’m starting off with 200. I have some free VistaPrint.com business cards coming in. I’ve decided to go with a “hand” theme on my marketing material. After all, I’d be a hired hand. And I’d be giving people a hand. The cool thing is that I made the flyers without the use of a computer. It’s all made by “hand”. I couldn’t resist that pun. I can proceed without the website, I but I do need to define my target services and set some pricing to make it worthwhile for me.

I’m going to work on the website a little bit. I need some little hand logos and pictures to start developing the site theme. I’ll get those later. For now, the content is what is important. I’ve already got the structure of the website laid out. I’ve decided to try out my hand with a Windows server this time around instead of the standard Linux. So, I’ll be working with Active Server Pages in some instances. For the most part, the host has a CMS called Dot Net Nuke. It’s a scripted CMS like PHP-Nuke, except it runs on .NET infrastructure.

I’m really excited. I have been a little gun shy about going into business again. This new idea, I know I can do it. It’s been something that I’ve wanted to do for a long time. Now is as good a time as any to go for it. I’m unemployed anyway.

Fall 2024 in the RGV

It's that time of year again when Winter Texans start to make their way south from the northern states. I have already had phone calls with a Winter Texan client who is getting ready to come down. I think it is fascinating that we can make friends from people who are visiting only seasonally. Looking at the blog stats, I seem to get a peak in traffic every year. So I suppose it must be partly due to many of our friends coming back from up north. Image generated by Gemini 1.5 Pro AI Speaking of seasons, we still have a couple of months to go before the end of hurricane season for 2024. We have been fortunate this year, compared to other parts of the USA. Although, south Texas could use the rain. This time of year makes me happy as we finally have nights that are below 78F like we had all summer. This week we have had mornings in the 60s. While we still have hot days in the 90s, we at least get some respite in the evenings, leading to cool mornings. Returning to RG...

The Mad Mexican

Years ago, there used to be a DJ at B104, a local radio station. Until recent years, B104 had a large audience. They played pop music. The Mad Mexican used to do the morning show with Gary Rodriguez, who is now involved in McAllen politics. Well, the Mad Mexican is still working, but on a national level. I heard him this morning on Aguila, XM 92. Aguila is the Mexican music station on XM Satellite Radio. It's great to hear from him again. He's still pretty wild. Gary Rodriguez? He worked for 107.9 for a while before going to KURV and then entering politics.
