Back from the NAEC Atlantic City Convention and man did we have a good time! The NAEC knows how to throw a party. I want to thank everyone who stopped by to say hi. It was greatly appreciated. We've got some great news this week as the Crocs Corporation has to address an Associated Press Article that sprung up last Monday. In this case the rule that there's no bad press fly's right out the window. We've got this, some great listener links and a winner in our monthly prize pack giveaway! That and much more on the show today!

Many of us are gearing up for the NAEC Convention next week in Atlantic City. I'm excited about it and look forward to seeing many of you at the show. This week there are two stories...one about Crocs and one about an elevator death in Canada that makes me wonder why we here in the United States or as an industry can't make improvements to how we learn from and prevent future elevator and escalator accidents from a occuring. That's my soapbox talk for the day. That and much more on today's program.

I hope everyone had a nice three day weekend for those of you listening in the United States! I spent Monday feeling under the weather and Tuesday was even worse. I think it might be the West Nile Virus....even though I'm crossing my fingers that it isn't. I'm going to do my best to get through the show as quickly as possible as my energy level is dropping. Some great news stories this past week to talk about so stay tuned here it comes!
