Embed YouTube Videos Into Your E-mails
I figured out a new trick! I feel like such a smart guy. Guess what? Did you know you could embed YouTube clips into your e-mails the same way you do on a blog? It’s just a code copy-and-paste. When you send the e-mail, your recipients will see the middle of the bracketed “object” embed […]
Missouri Has the Cheap Gas…So Far
With the ongoing national fuss over rising fuel prices, here’s a link from my home state providing some good behind the scenes analysis. Thanks to my home girl Tia Gigger for the email link to the story. Not everything is a conspiracy, people. It’s just good old world scale supply and demand.
