Wanna Be Like Mike


We're talking MikeMaroon here, not Jordan. Mike Maroon is obviously the buttoned up type who takes life verrrrry seriously. No fun and games here... he's all serious, all the time. Ha! I can't even type that with a straight face.

As a Chattanooga native, Mike's blood runs Tennessee Vols orange. As a music and movies buff... he's always keeping the community up to date on both new blockbusters and the oldies but goodies. Mike brings a big dose of personality to the table with fun sound bites and titles that get peoples attention. Case in point... Read his list of the Top 10 John Travolta Movies.

He's a true man's man. Check out this review of a Vizio HDTV he would consider wedding if it were a woman or this TV remote he can't live without. ESPN.com is one of his favorite sites too. 'Nuff said.

I suggest dropping by his profile page to see his funny pictures and read about his rather eclectic job history. Plus, if you ask... he may just tell you where you can get a pair of those sunglasses.

It's a family affair!


Katrena and CyndiA have both Viewpoints and chromosomes in common. Cyndi has been with us pretty much since day numero uno. In an effort to spread and share the VP love, she decided to recruit her sis. Katrena hit the road running... making our featured reviewer pick on the home page this week. She's churning out lots of fun and helpful reviews like this crowd favorite about the Locks of Love program. As a mom of three, a cancer nurse, a teacher and a exercise instructor... she's got her hands full, so to speak. Even with jam packed schedules, these sisters always manage to find the time to have some fun. See exhibit A above where the ladies are flashing what some may mistake for peace signs. They're actually V's for Viewpoints! (Their idea, not ours but we are 100% all about it!)

We have several family ties at Viewpoints. Meet the mom, son and sister team: PattyTherre, Mr---X and LaurieM. Then there's the lovely Carey family: Bryan and Lisa. Another amazing husband and wife duo: TheBard and LoveisJoy. The beach-dwelling lovebirds: Jo and Hannasdad

Get to know our Viewpoints office family too! We may not share genetics but we do spend a lot of quality time together :)

Isn't it time you invite a friend or family member to Viewpoints?

JusttheFactsMa-am!!


JusttheFactsMa-am brings an extra dose of honesty to the table with her reviews. Sugar-coating is just not her style. She writes about jewelry, clothing, computers, music and much more. She's a former model and world traveler who now calls LA home. Cool story huh? But wait... it gets cooler AND greener. JusttheFacts runs a eco-friendly jewelry & housewares company called Verlu. It's a fair trade business too! Verlu has some incredibly unique and beautiful gifts, especially for those folks who are hard to shop for.

For advice on fair trade shopping & tools for small businesses, read these B.S.-free recommendations (wink):


So for this we say... Efcharisto! Merci! Gracias! for spreading the word.
