Who invented the Egg McMuffin?
LOS ANGELES - Herb Peterson, who invented the ubiquitous Egg McMuffin as a way to introduce breakfast to McDonald's restaurants, has died, a Southern California McDonald's official said Wednesday. He was 89.
Peterson died peacefully Tuesday at his Santa Barbara home, said Monte Fraker, vice president of operations for McDonald's restaurants in that city.
He began his career with McDonald's Corp. as vice president of the company's advertising firm, D'Arcy Advertising, in Chicago. He wrote McDonald's first national advertising slogan, "Where Quality Starts Fresh Every Day."
Peterson eventually became a franchisee and was currently co-owner and operator of six McDonald's restaurants in Santa Barbara and Goleta, Fraker said.
Peterson came up with idea for the signature McDonald's breakfast item in 1972. He "was very partial to eggs Benedict," Fraker said, and worked on creating something similar.
The egg sandwich consisted of an egg that had been formed in a Teflon circle with the yolk broken, topped with a slice of cheese and grilled Canadian bacon. It was served open-faced on a toasted and buttered English muffin.
The Egg McMuffin made its debut at a restaurant in Santa Barbara that Peterson co-owned with his son, David Peterson.
Fraker said that, although semiretired, Peterson still visited all six of his stores in the Santa Barbara area until last year when his health began to deteriorate.
"He would talk to the customers, visit with the employees. He loved McDonald's," Fraker said.
Fraker, who said he worked with Peterson for 30 years, said "he was amazing as far as giving back to the community."
"He embraced the community and the community embraced him," Fraker said. "We loved the man."
Peterson is survived by his wife, son and three daughters.

I Am A Nerd!

I hate to say this but I am a nerd.
Is being a nerd such a bad thing...Maybe?!
In today's information rich world I believe we are
all slowly becoming nerd.
Whether you like it or not you have your quirks
just like me.
I realized I had officially become a nerd when I saw
this comic.
My nerd subject of choice is business. Primarily, new ways to make tons of cash. So naturally marketing is a subject of great interests for learning more effective ways to sell my products.
At the same time I believe there is even a bigger and more
common group of nerds. It is primarily made up of woman.
It is the Celebrity Girl Group of Ultra Nerdyness...I mean
if you are a single guy and you want to get just about any
woman talking, make one statement about Britney Spears...
You will not have to say another word because she will show
how much of a nerd she is when she can tell you every single
detail of what is going on in Spears life.
No matter what....Everyone is a Nerd.

I am SO PISSED!

Hello....
So I got home Monday night.
I was feeling pretty darn good so I started working. Went to bed around midnight. Then it all started!
I woke up at 3:45 in the morning! What is heck is going on?
Then around 11:45 that same day I was hit with a ton of brinks. Passed out instantly like I had some case of Narcolepsy! Matter of fact I think I was sitting on the toilet!
When I woke up five hours later, I felt like I had just finished off a gallon of robotussion.
After a little while I was back to my regular self.
Point of all this is I can not sleep regular flipping hours. My day is all screwed up!
Any ideas?
P.S. I actually slept 6 hours last night!

No Sleep!?
The 85 Million Dollar Oven-Mitt!
YES! You read that correctly! 85 Million Dollars spent on an Oven Mitt!
The worst part of this Oven Mitt is it has the voice of Tom Arnold!
The purpose of this Oven Mitt was to sell food!
Make sense?
I didn’t think so!
Here is the story:
You probably remember this…Back in 2004 Arby’s commitment 85 million dollars to marketing an Oven Mitt attempt to get more people to buy Arby’s food! 85 million! Can you believe this? As you can assume the results were terrible.
How does this happen and why does it matter in your business?
First thing first, this happens when you do not understand how to market. People often think they have to create the most impressive websites with the latest technology. If you don’t know by now, building your business around technology does not equal profit. What you need is great marketing with specific products equal profits.
What does this have to do with you business? EVERYTHING! Most people want to be a great success in network marketing. Yet they lack the critical information about HOW TO market their business.
Here is a confession: I did the exact same thing. I believe if I exposed a whole lot of people I they would all get involved in my business and I would be RICH! I spend $750 my first month in my business. Unfortunately, it amount to five leads!
What is the solution?
You must learn to grow you business or DIE!
Fortunately, the market place is very clear in what it wants. The market will tell you exactly what to do. You just have to know to TEST. Great marketers do not have any secrets other than they test everything they do religiously! You need to do the same thing. You must figure out how to market yourself or partner with someone you has figure it out. Otherwise you will have to go through years of trail and error until you figure out how to get the results you want.
The sad part about figuring out success is most people will NEVER earn the results they want! Do not reinvent the wheel! Learn from others!
