Recently saw a photo of a sign that — macabre as it was — no doubt brought some laughs. It said… “DANGER: DO NOT TOUCH — Not Only Will This Kill You, It Will Hurt The Entire Time You Are Dying.” Immediately, I went into sales and marketing mode and thought of how perfect a message it…
Years ago a little book authored by the late, Dr. Richard Carlson entitled, Don’t Sweat The Small Stuff…and It’s All Small Stuff provided some much-needed wisdom for those of us whose sense of peace of mind and happiness were continually disturbed by life’s little inconveniences. And, in that context, the phrase itself is certainly valid. Many…
A friend of mine tweeted that she was named after a police officer her Parents both admired for her courage and honor. “They wanted me to be strong like her” concluded the tweet. How cool is that? It brings to my mind a couple of questions: Were you named after someone with qualities your Parents…

It was immediately obvious that Judy Robinett was a person with that special combination of huge business acumen and an even bigger…
