November 30, 2017 Did I Get My Money’s Worth?

admin November 30, 2017 No Comments

Much earlier this year, I wrote about the value of time and how my concept of that value influences my decision making process. My coauthors have a similar philosophy and have alluded or directly written on the subject as well. Today’s post takes that concept a little farther. Ive been ( continue reading… )

November 29,2017 It’s a Sign

admin November 29, 2017 No Comments

it snowed in the day of Henry V’s coronation, April 9, 1413. Some people took the fluffy, pure precipitation as a sign that change was in the air and better days lay ahead under the new king. Others took it as a bad omen which bodes ill for the country. ( continue reading… )

November 28, 2017 – Pull The Next Tassel

admin November 29, 2017 No Comments

November 26, 2017 – Life Happens

admin November 26, 2017 No Comments

I’m sitting in an airport lounge waiting on a flight to Europe.  I was lamenting this trip earlier (crazy, right?) I really wasn’t ready to fly and I’m frankly out of travel practice. Having spent the last 3 years in school and taking care of work at HQ,  I have ( continue reading… )

November 25, 2017 – Let the Holiday Season Begin

admin November 26, 2017 No Comments

Well, Thanksgiving is over we are officially into the holiday season. Its funny the time dilation effect as we get older.  When I was younger it took forever for the holiday season and school holidays to arrive. I judged time by the holiday specials on TV, which at the time ( continue reading… )

November 24, 2017 Black Friday Philosophy

admin November 24, 2017 No Comments

So we go from my favorite holiday to the dreaded day after activity I detest the most. I’ve never understood the infatuation with going out in the wee hours–and they’re getting even wee-er in the past few years–to save a couple bucks.

November 23, 2017 Happy Thanksgiving

admin November 23, 2017 No Comments

Thanksgiving is by far my favorite holiday. We always spend it with our family and friends who we consider family.

November 22, 2017 – Thanksgiving Eve and The Gipper

admin November 22, 2017 No Comments

The day before Thanksgiving has always been one of those days I have looked forward to.  Sure, Thanksgiving Day itself is a big event, what with football, a big dinner with family and friends and many other traditions, but I have always enjoyed the “eves” of major holidays and events.  ( continue reading… )

November 21, 2017 – Don’t Shoot The Messenger

admin November 21, 2017 No Comments

I don’t remember the name of the editor this quote came from, but the quote is very appropriate for the age we are living in.  He said, “They will forgive you if you are wrong, but they won’t if you are right.”  The context was as follows.  He was a ( continue reading… )
