I starting blogging with high expectations. Wanted to share some of the great on-line experiences I've had. It sure is an investment in time, to have an opinion expressed in a way that doesn't bore all you readers. As Mark Twain once said, "If I had more time this letter would have been shorter." It makes sense to me to also share experiences outside the mortgage world.

I've been busy. Installed a new printer. It is simply amazing how much paper is generated by each loan. Copies and copies of everything! Trips to Kinko's can become very expensive after awhile. As we grow, like any business, our finite capacity gets overwhelmed from time to time. So the quick fix is to use somebody else's free capacity for conducting business. That's how Kinko's became added to our standard mix of business processes. One new loan. Then two new loans. Suddenly we find that a month's trips to the copying store costs more than a brand new printer!

Buying products online is so convenient, too. I had a really great experience. a new HP 9120 color printer/copier/scanner/fax/photo memory card printer. Two trays: letter and legal sized paper. Network ready. Slick as all get-out.

Ordered it Thursday from http://www.compuadds.com. Free shipping. Friday morning a deliveryman knocks on the door. Unbelievable! I just had to mention this wonderful service.
