I just received “THE” video camera purchased on Ebay. We are talking hi-tech. Purchased a Panasonic GS500 for $ 200.00 based on a recommendation from a supposed Guru. I’m sure that Charles Kuralt had such humble beginning. Having looked at the “investment” and manual can definitely say this qualifies as both an adventure and smile …
Yes, I’m dog guy ! I’m sure there is something about litter-boxes, hairballs, and animals on kitchen counters that is irresistible. Hey, if we were all the same it would be boring. Everyone has heard the same stuff about how special a dog is in that they are always glad to see you. But, …
Wish I could take credit for this but I read about this Idea in Timothy Ferriss’s book The 4-Hour Workweek. I’m not sure I understand how one defines scary however comfort zone is a bit more manageable. Maybe a few ideas: Browse a magazine that would never appeal to you For one week take …
I would normally not so blatantly plagiarize but I could not help but break a rule. I recently came upon this and felt it must be shared. I do not know the original source and thus ask anyone out there to share the origin if known. A great smile and truism to share. A young …

I was very lucky as I grew up in an environment where music was a constant companion. I took piano lessons at an early age (four) and hated every minute. Latter I moved on to the Saxophone and still play even taking lessons today. Paul Desmond was never insecure that I was around however as …
Several months ago on whim I purchased three yellow roses on the way to the office. Not sure where the inspiration came from but the plan was to present them to three strangers or acquaintances during the day. The first person was a lady at the Dry Cleaner that I always spoke to when dropping …
I have been a follower of Wayne Dyer for many years. There are more than a few folks out there offering inspirational books, tapes, etc and Wayne Dyer, most would agree, is a member of the group. Dyer has written over 30 books and many (I have read a number) are very similar. However, Dyer has …
Well here I am after 20 years skiing. First, I must confess I was never asked to join the US Olympic (likely an over sight) but in my heart I was a “contender”. I’m told the new skis (actually far from new) make the adventure much easier and enjoyable. I’m also told one now wears …
