2012 and 50 are just around the corner

Dec 19, 2011 |  

Older workers, nowhere near retirement age, feel the pressure to inject themselves with botox to go on an interview. Not me of course...

How do you seize the moment?

Here's some proof that visioning works to seize the moment.

The People of the United States of America as Employer

Oct 02, 2011 | 4

When I was a kid my dad LOVED to watch the news and I would rather go in my room and bury my head under the covers rather than be an accomplice. Genetics and role models are a cool when they are positive - who would have ever thought I would someday have a blog and live comment on world affairs...

8 Weeks

9 1/2 Weeks with Kim Basinger and Mickey Rourke was an intense clip of life. 8 Weeks is also about an intense clip of life. Mine, sans the kinkiness...

The opportunity to earn a living should not be political

The average working stiff doesn't ask for much, just a job in order to have a house, food, car and some disposable cash for Friday nights and hobbies. Less and less people are able to achieve that...

It’s Payback Time!

Jul 09, 2011 | 2

I spent 2010 helping those who suffered job loss from the recession. By the oodles. I never said 'no' to devoting my non working hours to basically what amounted to a second job. I never asked for or accepted compensation. Now it's payback time...

This one continues to have me riveted hours after viewing it because it struck a sky blue chord on the topic of how we perceive others based on the way they process their own perceptions. We are all very fragile indeed...

Fruit Flavored Sugar

Jun 22, 2011 |  

You would think Julia Child resurrected the way the media is going on these past few days about using artificial fruit flavored beverage powder to make the world's newest culinary creation, "Deep Fried Kool-Aid". Chicken Charlie figured out a new delivery for a product that's been around since 1927 and teaches us a very important lesson...

Old Man I’m a lot like you were

Jun 19, 2011 | 1

Today I'm thinking about how men affect the children in their lives. How so many kids grow up messed up because of what fathers do or don't do. How it really, truly makes a difference in the life of someone who never asked to be here that you do everything you possibly can to make your actions worth it for them. And I'm so very appreciative of those who do.

Today and Every Day

Do you eat breakfast? I don't normally touch a thing except coffee until around 11am. I'm not a morning communicator either. I don't really feel like talking until about two in the afternoon - then maybe not. But this morning I do have something to say...
