    You better not rewrite it. The better you know it the better it is for you and those you impact.

    When I was training to be a Contract Specialist in South Carolina, my mentor, Art Nalley, always stressed one thing. “What does the contact say?’ That was second only to “Don’t worry about the mule going blind just load the wagon” when the workload was intense. That is a Mississippi adage. ...read more

The verse reads: “For his anger lasts only a moment, but his favour lasts a lifetime; weeping may stay for a night but joy comes in the morning”. No matter how long a problem may have gone on for, no matter how difficult ...read more
