Scooby Doo passes online driving class - 05/13/08 02:14 PM
This is why in California the on-line drivers class requires the person to take a test in the presence of a notary.
Scooby Doo passes online driving class
The Driving Educators of Georgia registered Scooby Doo for an online driving class to prove Internet learning is insufficient punishment for reckless drivers.
The association signed the cartoon dog up for a Florida Internet driving course, which he passed with flying colors, in an effort to convince Georgia Gov. Sonny Perdue to override legislation allowing drivers to complete court-required driving classes online, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported Thursday.

Man Doubles Gas Mileage By 'Hypermiling'
An Illinois man says he doubles his gas mileage by driving at or below the speed limit and sticking to the right lane on the highway. His creeping along might tick you off, but he's getting great gas mileage. Wayne Gerdes' standard engine 2005 Honda Accord has an average EPA mileage rating of 25 miles per gallon. Gerdes almost doubles that. His average is 48 miles per gallon. Gerdes is the guru of what he calls "hypermiling.""I used to be the 'A' type personality, left hand lane, passing everybody, going down I-94 at 80 miles … (4 comments)

I'd like your input - 05/13/08 12:48 PM
With the decline in the mortgage market,and in turn loan signings, what are all you professional notaries in the active rain community doing to remain competitive, pay your bills, and stay relevant? I find myself spending a tremendous amount of time marketing on the net, on the phone and in offices. How about you?

Just for fun...It's Friday - 05/09/08 12:23 PM
Stevie Wonder and Tiger Woods are in a restaurant having dinner. Woods turns to Wonder and says, 'How's the singing career going?' Stevie Wonder replies, 'Not too bad. How's the golf?' Woods replies, 'Not too bad. I've had some problems with my swing, but I think I've got that going right now.' Stevie says, 'I always find that when my swing goes wrong, I need to stop playing for a while and not think about it. Then, the next time I play, it seems to be all right.' Tiger says, 'You play golf?' Wonder says, 'Oh, yes, I've been playing … (4 comments)

A NOTARY'S MORAL OBLIGATION - 05/08/08 12:30 PM
I'd like to share an incident I had last night as a reminder of our moral obligation as a Notary Public.
I was called to do a mobile notary at an elderly home yesterday evening. When I arrived I was greeted by a man who stated that he was the person who made the appointment. He was clearly an employee of the home due to his badge and attire. He escorted me to a small office where there was an elderly woman in a wheelchair. The man said she needed a document notarized. I immediately noticed it was a Grant Deed. … (13 comments)

A follow up to my last blog... - 05/07/08 12:31 PM
Sorry I wasn't very specific with my last blog, so here you go...
Honestly, I haven't spent a penny on my internet advertising. I used Microsoft Office Live for a free website and their templates and tools to build it. They made it very easy, plus gave me a free domain name of my choosing. I've posted free listings and links everywhere I possibly could on the net and now I've found myself on the first page of Google, MSN, and Yahoo if you search San Jose Notary. Plus, I make it a point to post an ad or two on craigslist daily which has a link back … (4 comments)

I'm not a techy, but.... - 05/07/08 12:04 PM
I can't tell you how much my business has gone up since I've started a website. Gradually, I've gone from having to check my email once or twice a day to once an hour. I've fought technology for as long as I could, but now business won't wait for me. So here I am, PDA in one hand and laptop in the other. … (4 comments)

For Those Born 1920-1979 - 05/06/08 12:53 PM
THOSE born 1920-1979 READ TO THE BOTTOM FOR QUOTE OF THE MONTH BY JAY LENO. IF YOU DON'T READ ANYTHING ELSE---VERY WELL STATED TO ALL THE KIDS WHO SURVIVED the 1930's, 40's, 50's, 60's and 70's!! First, we survived being born to mothers who smoked and/or drank while they were pregnant. They took aspirin, ate blue cheese dressing, tuna from a can, and didn't get tested for diabetes. Then after that trauma, we were put to sleep on our tummies in baby cribs covered with bright colored lead-based paints. We had no childproof lids on medicine bottles, doors or cabinets and … (6 comments)
