Etiquette - August 2006

My sister posted a response to a question the other day. She wrote "thank you for the two points - have a lovely rest of the day". She got reported. Yahoo Answers sent her a Violation Notice which stated that she didn't answer the question and was warned about that. The question she answered was a person's question who was very racist toward Americans and about how stupid we all are because "supposedly" this person was from Mexico, illegal and there is nothing we can do about it because our government doesn't care. She didn't bash this person, as many other people did, so why was she reported?

Are they trying to cover up odor, do they just not have very good sense of smell?

I just walked by a conference room in my office and the scent was sooooo obnoxious!

Do you tell the person?

A manager in my company was allergic to cologne and told an employee that used a lot of cologne to please stop. This may be a good way to get the point across!!!

I got a book for Christmas, that I have never opened, read, in fact touched it until this morning. I don't think I will ever use it. I am invited to a party this weekend and I think this book would fit her personality and lifestyle.

Would it be okay to give her this book as a gift?
Or..
Should I just go buy something else since I this book was given to me as a gift?

In the Sentinel interview, Young (Wal-Mart's Families PR representative at the time) was asked about whether he was concerned Wal-Mart causes smaller, mom-and-pop stores to close:

"Well, I think they should; they ran the 'mom and pop' stores out of my neighborhood," the paper quoted Young as saying. "But you see, those are the people who have been overcharging us, selling us stale bread and bad meat and wilted vegetables. And they sold out and moved to Florida. I think they've ripped off our communities enough. First it was Jews, then it was Koreans and now it's Arabs; very few black people own these stores."
