Who's
On First?
Costello:
Look, you gotta pitcher on this team?
Abbott: Now wouldn't this be a fine team without
a pitcher.
Costello: The pitcher's name.
Abbott: Tomorrow.
Costello: You don't wanna tell me today?
From
“Who's on First” comedy act by Abbott &
Costello
Article
by Laurie
Owen, SVP, Business Resource Services
Abbott
& Costello's baseball routine is one of the
classics of comedy. The general premise has
Costello, a prospective coach named Sebastion
Dinwiddle, talking to Abbott who is Dexter
Broadhurt, the manager of the mythical St. Louis
Wolves. However, before Abbott takes the job,
Dexter wants to make sure he knows everyone's
name on the team. Because it's Abbott &
Costello, much hilarity and confusion reign when
Abbott tries to find out who's who and what
their position is. In real life, it's not so
funny when your employees don't know who's in
charge or what their (or your) position is in
the company.

Meet Me Halfway
Hey,
remember me? I'm your body. We need to have a
heart-to-heart. It's been a long time since we
spent some quality time together and it's just
not fair. I've been working hard for you every
day, getting you up in the morning, out the
door, to your car, and to and from your
business. I've given you a couple of beautiful
children and I'd like to be around with you to
dance at their weddings.
You
haven't been giving me much to work on lately,
or doing me much good, I should say. I don't ask
for much...continued

November
Tip of
the Month
You
shouldn't have to wait until tax time to see how
2006 stacked up. Before the Christmas rush
hits, meet with your accountant and bookkeeper
to map out a target date and plan to finalize
your year-end financial statements. A good
goal to have finalized year-end statements
in-hand? March 1, 2006. Having a
goal and a plan gives you a better shot at
making it happen.
