The sun hung low in the sky, casting an eerie orange glow over Gary’s Atomic Fitness. The dust cloud on the horizon grew closer, and Gary could make out the silhouette of a motorbike kicking up the dust. It screeched to a halt outside the gym, and a figure, clad in worn-out leather and goggles, …
It’s hard starting a business as a sixty year old. There are so many pieces of nuanced information that I just don’t have, and the information I do have it’s just so dated. It’s clear to me that I don’t know the best ways to promote something anymore. I used to know all about TVC …
I have had the same car for the last thirty-five years. A lot of my friends and family members have expressed a level of car envy to me. None of them have had a car for even half as long as I’ve had my car. They keep calling me ‘lucky’ and expressing jealousy. What they …

Shoulder replacements are considered to be one of the less common replacement surgeries, but it is still just as successful in relieving shoulder and joint pain.
