Today, we offer an idea that is guaranteed to cut down on the amount of email you receive. How can we be so certain? Because, as of today we will no longer be sending out weekly Ampolo reminders–not even one each Monday, much less half a dozen.

We do this not because Ampolo is going the way of the incandescent light bulb. Nope, we will still be offering new entries on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays (including periodic videos featuring our host Nora). But we realize it’s time to let go. By now you know how and where to find us. So bookmark us, put us on your “favorite places” list, please, and visit when you choose. Also, feel free today or any other day to send us your thoughts about Ampolo: the concept, approach, what you like and don’t like.

We remain committed to serving up a main course of ideas with a side of entertainment. Most of our posts will focus on ways to make the world better…but not all. We would really like to create a community here. Please consider sending us your ideas. If you look below at last Friday’s entry, for example, you’ll see just such an offering from our friend Jim Garner. Also, last Wednesday’s recipe idea featured Mr. Ampolo caught on tape.

Speaking of improving everyone’s lives, we leave you today with the following 30 second video which makes, shall we say, an interesting case for having good insurance.
