“Great” Friday…

Today’s not just Good Friday in the religious sense, but Great Friday in a roof sense.  At 8:30 sharp a troupe – gaggle – SWARM of guys showed up in two trucks and started tearing off the roof.  With a vengeance.  Must be 15 guys working away it it.  Bet they have the old shingles off […]

The Power of Persistence…

Two excellent posts about Persistence with a capital “P” here and here on Joe Krauss’ Bnoopy blog.  I started to write a comment and then it turned into three pages of a Word document.  Joe’s stories are very cool, and whether you’re a budding businesswoman or a seasoned entrepreneur, you should take a read.  Actually, […]

Reaching the Goal Line…

Over at the Bnoopy blog, serial entrepreneur Joe Krauss (co-founder of Excite, if you remember it) posted recently on goals, goal setting and measurement for startups – and the fact that most goals in business are never achieved.  I’ve written a bit before about the Fast Forward MBA in Business Planning and Growth – if […]

Fame Here… Will Fortune Follow?

Wow.  A blahgKarma post on religious wars in the tech business got an entry in Scoble’s link blog.  That makes one think.  That stream has to be read by everyone on the Internet by now (OK, maybe not EVERYONE…).
I had posted on a topic that involved Robert Scoble and someone else and a bunch of […]

Fruit of the Day…

Apple got flamed today in an article by CNET senior editor Molly Wood entitled “The Strong Arm of Apple”.  The article was designed to spark controversy (good articles often do, don’t they) and Ms. Wood did a good job in that, but I was amazed by some of the comments.  I’ve written before about the religious […]

Good Evening, Mr. President…

OK, I’ve finally given in and added the Bill Clinton Daily Diary blog to the blahgRoll.  I laugh my ass off every time I read this thing.  It took me two posts when I first read it to figure out its a spoof.  Its funnier than a three-legged dog.
Whoever writes this thing has captured the […]

Speak Up, Why Don’t You?

These Klipsch ProMedia Ultra 2.0 desktop PC speakers got a stellar review and “Editor’s Choice” designation from PC Magazine Online today.  Great user reviews on Amazon, too.  I’m always leery of the sound quality of PC speakers – unless you’re up at the high end, over $150 range they’ve all tended to sound crappy to me.  But […]

I Found a Joint Today…

Like Robert Scoble, I am, in fact, a “fat white guy”.  And, I love to eat.
Driving around today looking for a bite, and I stopped into a place I used to frequent for breakfast years ago.  Changed hands a couple of times – a little hole-in-the-wall place.  Which, as it turns out now, makes an […]
