Flagship Update… The benefits of easy customer feedback.

Posted on November 22nd, 2004 by Shawn L.

A while ago I went to Flagship Cinema’s web page and found that they had updated their site. In this re-design was now addresses for the chain’s home office, and a web interface for customer feedback.Through this, I’d let the management know about my problem with their Thomaston location, and my postings on it here.Within […]

Sibling rivalry online…

My sister does not blog. For this, I am thankful… Why do I bring this fact up?The Reynolds boys are arguing over who’s the “smart one” and who’s the “good looking one”…I’d never survive a flame war with my sister.

Yeah, it’s been a week since I last blogged.The blogging software (ecto) helped… Until it came time to pay up for registration… I was waiting to see if MarsEdit had significantly improved, but nope.

“Push the button, Frank”

OOPS!!! The last two posts have been sitting on my computer over the weekend. I forgot to hit the “POST” button on my blogging software.Since they are election based I thought I’d better post them before election day passes….

It’s getting weird out there.

I can only hope that when we wake up on Wednesday, November 3rd that we will know with certainty who will be sworn in on January 20th of next year as President.But I’m worried. There are Democrats who believe that those who vote Republican are stupid or evil, and feel no need to persuade, but […]

The only poll that counts…

Posted on November 1st, 2004 by Shawn L.

… is the only poll that has any hope of accuracy.I’ve said that polling is increasingly untrustworthy, as in the age of telemarketing people are less likely to respond to pollsters…The Washington Post is noticing this too…Maybe the press will take this as an opportunity to inform the public on their options and the issues […]
