What is it that helps you identify a person by the sound of his or her voice? Sure the first and probably best answer would be “familiarity.” That one’s the easiest to remember. If you chat with a person often enough, you most likely will be able to recognize their sound after just hearing a…
Not bad, I would say; after nineteen years of not keeping my love for the United States of America a secret, only one person who partakes in the services being rendered by Kalmenson & Kalmenson has voiced an objection to our generous displays of our country’s flag. The man who did so actually put his…
I’ve been privileged to work and be taught by some of our industries most recognized dynamos. I consider myself a gleaner. If a guy or gal had even a modicum of success, the Kalmenson sponge (that’s me) was there to look and listen. Many of da harv’s tricks are nothing more than observances of some…
