Cheddarblog

The Swiss_Mouse is considering shutting down the cheddarblog.  Well, not shutting down, but changing direction.
It has served it’s need, but sadly it made precious little money for the Swiss_Mouse.
I still get traffic here, but I am not able to keep up with the demands of blogging.
I need to make money more rapidly and with less […]

Quantity is not Quality.
For some reason, a lot of people think you have to work long hours and very hard in order to productive and effective.  Mrs. Swiss_Mouse is one of those people.
I am not.
Just today, I put in 1 hour of intense time on a project and walked away, satisfied with the results.  Just […]

The Swiss_Mouse is going to make some changes.
The Cheddarblog was intended originally as a “make money blogging” blog.  But that never quite worked out.  In fact the Cheddarblog was run by Swiss_Mouse, Lord Limburger and PepperJack.  But only the Swiss_Mouse was interested.

The Swiss_Mouse’s hood was hit pretty heavy over the weekend by hurricane winds left over from Hurricane Ike.
Thus the Swiss_Mouse’s “bust your butt in September plan” got knocked off-line for a few days.
Luckily this was just a hiccup.  Some close by areas won’t have power for another 2 weeks.  No electricity, no cable,  no internet.  […]

Almost like fate, this a.m. on the dreadful drive into work, NPR covered a book convention, where one would be author/publisher was trying to get someone to snap up his idea for “humorous, small books of haiku”.
Dude the Swiss_Mouse provides it for free at WorkHaiku!
Could the Mouse actually be featured on NPR someday?  Eh Doubtful.

Bitter is he who
Must sit in his cube all day
While life passes by
Besides launching Picks and Finds with Mrs. Swiss_Mouse, the Swiss_Mouse has been busy getting his latest “fun” blog up and going.

Rooted deeply in the frustration of the workday, these haiku are both humorous and darkly true.
The Swiss_Mouse is busy with his Quitting the […]

Swiss_Mouse has been so busy on multiple projects….both at his day job (pronounced “dungeon”) and on his side projects.
He has already told you about Picks and Finds, his wife’s new website, and he will soon tell you about a venture he has been working on for a while, but yet to complete.  However he tells […]

The Swiss_Mouse presents the project that he and Mrs. Swiss_Mouse have been working on:
www.picksandfinds.com
The idea for this site came from a conversation that the Mouse and the Mrs. were having one day.
She said “I like to shop (Swiss_Mouse felt a stabbing pain in his wallet at that moment), but how can I get paid to […]

The Swiss_Mouse is so busy trying to upgrade his blogs to Wordpress 2.6, to get Mrs. Swiss_Mouse’s site up and going and figuring a way to make cheddar that he has no time to whine here about how his financial statements are all showing negative numbers!
He has gained back his weight (not from eating cheese, […]
