Today is a dark day in the world. Once again, President Bush has single handedly changed history and set the world down a grim path. He has signed S. 3930, the Military Commissions Act of 2006 into law, giving the United States power that goes against the Geneva conventions, defies the US Constitution, and in ...

Not your every day CEO
This must be “fascination” week. My last 2 articles have been about things that fascinate me. Well this is another story that blew me away. It’s the story of a CEO unlike any other CEO. A man who makes millions of dollars every year, but you wouldn’t even think he makes 100K. His name is ...

Niagara Falls vs. Times Square 4
A Saturday night without a debate wouldn’t be a good Saturday night. This weekend’s debate was intiated by Thy Geoff Star at about 3AM Sunday morning while sitting around at my place.

Work Life Balance 2
A lot of corporations talk about work life balance; but I find most of the time it’s all talk and no action. While working for a large corporation for over 5 years, I recall them talking to us on an annual basis about work life balance. It always seemed to be on the agenda simply ...
