So I took a week off from blogging for a couple of reasons. First, I didn’t have much to say, and the Valentine’s Day post seemed to get a lot of attention (though I may be misreading my spam folder). The other is because I’ve been horribly busy (and in this business, when in time [...]
I’ve often said that if a woman can multi-task, she’s normal, but if a guy can multi-task, he’s got ADHD. I am about to introduce you to a very strange and magical place that men frequent often, but women may be unaware of. I’ve run into a lot of clients and friends who go to [...]

October 29, 2009 3I was going to sit here and blog about death and how Halloween takes death and turns it into something we fear or something that we joke about. I was going to go off on a rant about how horror movies are bad mkay, and that we are trained by society to fear death.

November 12, 2008 1That’s basically what AshleyMadison.com is advertising. There are a lot of people who are bent out of shape about its unabashed, completely straightforward approach which seems to say, “Yes you are married. Yes you can have an affair. Here, let’s help you have one.”
