Here’s what to do, to assure things are kept separate in life and business. Screen names: Twitter, Flickr, Myspace, Pownce, whatever…keep your screen names different than that of your business name [...]

Sometimes good mornings
September 10th, 2008

I really hate the unpredictability of mornings, despite the fact that I do consider myself a morning person. Some mornings I’m good, ready for work in all of its joy. Other days, I’m resembling a sloth, likely falling into my couch on the way to the coffee machine. If I manage to get up from [...]

I have a visitor for the next few months staying with me Monday-Thursday night, an all too familiar figure in my life…my dad. He’s been unsuccessful in the employment area for the past year plus since his company folded and so he took a flier on a job in Jersey, just over an hour from [...]

I’ve spent two weekends in the lovely town of Dewey Beach, Delaware.

There’s a prevailing “Hookup Culture” in today’s society..and honestly…I’m not into it. It’s just not my thing. I spent the weekend in Dewey Beach and unlike some of my friends…I really wasn’t there to “tap that”. I didn’t want to hookup with anyone, honestly no desire. If I met someone really cool, it was great…we’d talk for [...]
