On tonight's episode of "Undercover Boss" on
CBS, president and CEO Andy Wirth gets a makeover and goes undercover to
Lake Tahoe, Calif. The Squaw Valley mountain is famous for hosting the
1960 Winter Olympics and the epicenter of big mountain skiing. Alpine
Meadows offers a family-friendly atmosphere with excellent snow sports
for the entire family. The founder of the empire was Conrad Wirth,
Andy's grandfather, who was the Director of the National Parks Services
for eleven years. When Andy took over, he purchased Alpine Meadows to
give the two resorts a more family-friendly atmosphere, where Squaw
Valley mainly catered to the expert skiers.
The world has changed a lot. Most people
don't know the names of all the cars on the market. Two cars in a family
is common. People are busy and don't want to take the time to shop for
that perfect car. Families with kids want SUV's. Everyone wants energy
efficiency. Instead of asking how much horse power, people are asking
how many miles per gallon.
James Douglas Muir Leno was born April 28, 1950, in New

Probably about
80-something percent. I'll be able to make a fist again. There's a
knuckle I'll never be able to move again, but that's probably the only
permanent damage, other than the scarring. The
first voice I heard when I came out of surgery was Harrison's. Harrison
called me on the phone and said, "Hey, are you okay?" I said,
"Yeah, I'm good." He said, "Well, then you need to get back to work." I
said, "Are you serious?" He said, "That's the way this cookie crumbles."
So I went back to work. The show doesn't stop for anybody.
Every year when my wife and I filed our taxes some things from MY past
(not hers) would creep up. If we filed our taxes on February 1st, we
were lucky if we got our refund in August. I had a
buy junk truck that had a manual transmission. My wife cannot drive stick
shift but I had to put her on my insurance because she is has a driver's
license and lived with me. If she had tickets or a DUI from the past, my
insurance would be sky high and I have never had any tickets and I don't
drink and drive. It wasn't a problem for us but it could have
been. It may be a word, a symbol or a motto but having a message can
do more to keep attorneys on the same page than almost anything else.
Decide what your message and is and stick to it, whether it be stamping
your symbol on letters and emails or boldly displaying your firm mantra
on the company website. Repetition will help attorneys stay on message
and clients recognize your presence. Skip: "Yaw, I can see that, let me yell at him: --'Hay stupid, yaw
you, what you doing!"' Amery looks at Skip as if that might not be the
smartest thing to do. The situation might sound like a win-win but some
people say "Cash for Clunkers" is a speed bump, slowing customers who
might want a used car. Used car dealers at Naff Auto Sales told WSLS the
program could force people into buying a new car. Another possible
problem, Clunkers traded in with the program have to be destroyed,
meaning they won't end up for sale on a used car lot. Better for the
environment, bad for used car business. But many say it's a trade we
need to make. Many don't want to put the brakes on the program. In an
interview with WSLS, the president of Berglund Automotive said close to
40 people have taken advantage of the government program so far. They
say "Cash for Clunkers" is giving customers the kick they need to get a
new car.
