08-15-2026 - The economy is not as bad as we are lead to believe. Many merchants report this year's going-out-of-business sales are much better than last year's.

08-15-2026 - 10:53 AM - I contacted a station in Burro Wash BLM Recreation Management Area (US-5908) in Utah on 20 meters (14 MHz) CW (Morse code) in the Amateur (ham) Radio Parks on the Air® program. To date, I have contacted 709 unique (no duplicate parks) POTA stations using Morse code. What do you do when you're not stuffing envelopes? See my station.

08-15-2026 - Good Morning! It's Saturday, and I still have nothing important scheduled. The NWS says we're in for another hot day (104 degrees). We hit 105 yesterday. Postage is up to 82¢ these days. I remember as a kid back in 1964, when a First Class stamp was 5¢, my father said he was surprised that the rate for a single letter wasn't $1.00. Well, Dad, we're almost there. My incoming mail was all "programs" yesterday, as usual. Are these even Mail Order dealers if they are not enclosing ads for some dealer "tools of the trade" such as printing or advertising? Or are they "one-trick ponies" who received a program flyer, signed up, and are now mailing only that flyer? It's an interesting "extra income" world.

08-14-2026 - This is another call for new reports with reproduction rights, also known as “reprint reports.” I don’t know about you, but I haven't seen any new reports covering today's problems. Problems that might or might not have anything to do with Extra Inome Mail Order selling. Remember, “pen and paper” products have huge profit potential.

08-14-2026 - I'm mailing more "site announcement" display ads to one of our well-known Mail Order publishers. What did you do to promote your business?

08-14-2026 - An honest merchant is one who puts up a "going out of business" sign, and then goes out of business.

08-14-2026 - Headlines - Retail sales slump as consumer spending falters, Consumer sentiment plunges, 'Golden Age' Economy Pitch Fizzles With Voters.

08-14-2026 - I mentioned earlier that I own a CD-ROM with 7,000 reports with reproduction rights. I paid $10.00 for it. My calculator says those reports cost me .14285¢ each. The CD-ROM back then, and now the thumb drives and SD cards, can do the same damage to any present collection of reprint reports. The only way to overcome this is to crank out new reports constantly. New reports, with or without reprint rights, that solve modern issues. If you write them and offer reprint rights, they will end up on electronic media. It’s a fact of life. Keep writing. John Grisham didn’t stop at one book. He’s still cranking them out.

08-14-2026 - Good Morning! It's Friday, and I have zip, zero, zilch on my schedule. It looks like all website functions are still operating after yesterday's lengthy hosting company outage. It's going to be another 105 degree day at the ADSHEET #8 HQ. I'm ready for Winter! In other bad news, There are two data centers approved in my town, one 5 miles from me and the other 1 mile away. My Folgers Black Silk coffee is ready.

08-13-2026 - In the mail today was none other than the usual handful of gifting programs. Somewhere along the line, we stopped creating and started asking for handouts. It's similar to the manufacturing jobs that service-type jobs have replaced. We need to manufacture more and, in the case of Extra Income Mail Order, create more!

08-13-2026 - On Saturday, September 12, 2026, at 10:00 AM, the U.S. Postal Service will release a new stamp celebrating the 150th anniversary of the U.S. Coast Guard Academy. An unveiling ceremony will be held at Custom House Pier at Waterfront Park, 1 Waterfront Park St., New London, CT 06320
