I recently got a new gig as a contributor to the relaunched AOL Small Business site, which is loaded with full-steam-ahead stories about entrepreneurs keeping this American economy afloat. Good to know so folks aren't waiting out the recession, right?
My first two pieces are:
A "Made in the U.S.A." round-up of baseball companies, inlcuding Milwaukee-based Olympus Flag & Banner, which makes the giant sausage mascots that make Miller Park a must-visit for fans of the grand old game and foam chorizos alike.
A chat with one of the founders of Fire Island Beer, who was kind enough to provide samples and conduct the interview in old school Mickey Mantle fashion. (You figure it out.)
I'll be writing a lot for AOL, so tune in here for all your breaking offbeat business folk news.
