I'd pass on the gum, but most anything else I'd consider. Gene Simmons has made several recent trips to Sioux Falls, SD to help with the Kids Rock n Roll Academy. He seems to very generous with his time and donations to help raise money. Kudos to him!
I can't keep my mouth shut about lazy, uncommitted co-workers. I try and try, but at some point, it just all goes out the door when I see someone texting or FaceBooking when they are supposed to be working. Drives me bonkers!
