Cluetrain Plus 10: Hollow Corp Speak

Posted on April 28, 2009

Ten years ago the Cluetrain Manifesto was published. In one way, that feels like forever and then again it seems like just yesterday. Have you read it? I think it is one of the more recent books that instantly tells me a lot about you if you have or haven’t read it. To celebrate, Keith [...] Read more »

Passion is Contagious

Posted on April 25, 2009

I was in Memphis on Thursday to take part in a very cool Launch Memphis event. We were told that the audience would be hip to the market and the various tools and that the hope was to stretch their minds beyond the obvious. This sounded great to me and it was fun to see [...] Read more »

It isn’t very often that I pick up a book and can’t put it down. But, that is what happened when I got my advance copy of ONO, Options Not Obligations: Enrich Your Personal Life by Rethinking Your Financial Life by Marc Warnke. The other thing that happened was as I read more and more [...] Read more »

It is school vacation week for my kids. Emily is at Drama Camp and Dylan has decided that staying at home is what he wanted to do this year. Being the ever supportive parent, I let them make the decision this week. I have a feeling Dylan will be veggie and playing with friends for [...] Read more »

Tax Day Kicked My Ass, But Let Us All Move On…

Posted on April 16, 2009

Yesterday was tax day in America and it got the best of me for a bunch of reasons. Combine that with meetings at strange times and other commitments and it made for what could be called a weird day at best. I’m cranking Waltham right now and getting the day underway. I’ve got some writing [...] Read more »

Reflections Towards the Future

Posted on April 14, 2009

This morning I had a meeting with one of our clients at the Harvard Club in Boston. As usual, I arrived early and had a few minutes to just sit and think. I twittered about reflecting on how my life changed in those very halls, but 140 characters is not enough to fully share what [...] Read more »

Garlic Roast Beef and Champagne Cauliflower

Posted on April 12, 2009

A few weekends ago I tested another couple of recipes for the Gilded Fork Cookbook. I picked a Garlic Roast Beef and Champagne Cauliflower. The first sounded like something the family would love and the second got the best of my curiousity since I laugh cauliflower but the thought of cooking it with champagne really [...] Read more »

Movie Motivational Mashup

Posted on April 10, 2009

Who doesn’t get touched by those great motivational speeches in movies. Granted I hold a special place in my heart for the Saint Crispin’s Day speech in Henry V, but there are so many great others as well. [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d6wRkzCW5qI[/youtube] Matthew Belinkie edited together the above video of some of the best. The shear variety of [...] Read more »

I Miss Personal Blogging

Posted on April 7, 2009

I wrote my first blog post on July 2, 2002 after seeing a friend do it for a little while. I loved how it was a peek inside of his brain that I didn’t see any other way. As I began writing I found I did the same thing. I’d share my raw emotions in [...] Read more »

Dylan’s First Lacrosse Game

Posted on April 5, 2009

Today was the first ever lacrosse game for Dylan and I have to say that I’m not sure who had more fun, him or us. What a fun game and I’m psyched that he seems to be really into it and I hope he sticks with it. I took this picture before the game of [...] Read more »
