This Week in TAB
You may have already seen, but this week I combined the magic that is Text Expander with Taco Ipsum to create a nifty little shortcut to spit out ipsum (of the taco variety) at will.
Sometimes it’s the small things in life that really make a difference. I can’t tell you how often I Google ipsum to copy and paste. I’ll save so much time now — and time is money, and money buys tacos (the circle of life!).

With more and more lawsuits every day, Dan asked the group how much he really need to focus on accessibility. - Your After-Hours Policy

Before You Go ?
Every day is taco ipsum tuesday. Side of rice and beans, please. TACOS!! I think I’ve overdosed on tacos. If you were a taco, would you eat yourself? I’ve been following that taco truck around all day. How do you feel about hard shelled tacos? Tacos for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Say taco one more time. It’s a wonderful morning for breakfast tacos. TACOS!! Fish tacos with cabbage slaw and a side of chips and guac. BARBACOA!! Tacos, tacos, tacos.
Sorry, I couldn’t resist ?
