Download the Rich Jerk Ebook for Free
Independent reviews of the Rich Jerk program on the way. I’ve watched this guy for quite a while and have always enjoyed his branding. It combines the best of marketing asshole-ism with branding bastardy. I loved the snarky salespages and the snotty attitude towards the customer. But then I saw the infommercial. Yup. An infommercial […]

Stormfront on Asians
Whenever you need a good giggle (or scare) pop on over to Stormfront, everybody’s favorite ‘White Pride World Wide’ website: I’m just wondering how everyone here feels about Asians. Personally, I have never had a problem with any Asian or even heard much about anyone having problems with Asians. Most Asians seem like smart, hard […]

Monday Riffs
Did some good work yesterday. Got some nice ideas in the mental Crock Pot and really having a good time with my interns. I don’t like calling them interns because that seems a bit condescending. They were hired as interns but Sharon and Jeff are really kicking butt and I look forward to exploding revenue […]

Happy Birthday Honey
Today is Ron’s birthday. He doesn’t want to do much today but I just wanted to say that I’m happy he was born. My buddy Beth used to say that on my birthday and I think that is the best sentiment you can give people: ‘I’m glad you were born.’ It seems to wrap up […]

(from Sunday)
I like the insularity of weekends. Me at home alone with nobody around playing around on the computer or letting emails ferment in the ‘Action’ folder. Nice and quiet. Except for the Blue Angels. It looks like it’ll be clearer today outside so they’ll be able to drop cluster bombs on the surbanites longer than […]

(From Saturday)
SCORE. I just got a copy of Visio on eBay for a rock-bottom price. Visio is a flow-charting software package. I used it a ton back in my finance process re-engineering days where the highly-paid consultants would lock all the accountants in a room and map out every finance process and then they’d give me […]

Nichelle Nichols is Still Hot
Watching the Comedy Central Roast of William Shatner. Nichelle Nichols is still so beautiful and elegant. From Wikipedia: During the first year of the series, Nichols was tempted to leave the show as she felt her role lacked significance, but a conversation with Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. changed her mind. Dr. King personally encouraged […]

Jack Cafferty on the NSA/FISA Ruling
Must watch: Jack Cafferty on The Situation Room (Quicktime video from Crooks and Liars) Or at least must read: Cafferty: You know Wolf, it seems like were having this discussion about this judge’s ruling sort of in the abstract, as if there’s no precedent for what the judge decided. The judge in effect upheld the […]

Mall Dreams
And it is Friday. Ron is on his way to Orange County. Kitty is skulking around trying to wake up and my NO-XPLODE is dissolving in my waterbottle. Sales went well yesterday – of couse unless I have huge huge huge results I’m never satisfied but I’m pleased with how things went and it’s a […]
