ShareWe hope you and your family are having a wonderful holiday season. It can be the most joyful time of year, unless someone with a serious case of Adultitis shows up. Treatment is available, but awareness is the key. Both Ebeneezer Scrooge and the Grinch were Adultitis survivors, so there is hope. We decided to [...]

Kim came across a story in which a man was denied a first class upgrade on a United flight by a gate agent because we was dressed “too casually.” He was wearing a track suit.
Good thing he wasn’t wearing a clown suit; he’d be deported by now.
It looks like a classic case of Adultitis, and [...]

I’m not sure if you’ve heard, but the economy is bad. Like, really bad. It’s not a good time to go out and do anything outlandish, like start a business or invest in learning a new skill. You definitely want to keep risk taking to a minimum, that’s for sure. Oh, and the housing market [...]

I feel like I need to take a shower. Kim and I just got done doing a business-themed radio interview with a couple of female hosts who were two of the most Adultitis-ridden people I’ve come across in some time. Arrogant and pessimistic, the duo was unprepared, unenthusiastic, and utterly unhappy.
