"First Democrats complain about Comey needing to go, and now he's gone and they're still complaining." What.
Are these people serious with this asinine spin? Does this utter nonsense actually work on some people? As though the American people are overtired toddlers that cry when they get what they want, because they don't know what they want in the first place. No, Democrats aren't "just complaining" about wh…
In
the business world there's a nugget of wisdom that suggests we should
be able to explain our work "to our grandparents." Now, I know many
brilliant individuals with grandchildren who do not need things
dumbed-down, so phrased in a less insulting way, let's say you're
doing well if you can explain your work to anyone who isn't in your same
exact business. The layperson, if you will.
So, for the non-marketer, wh…
This is Why I Hate The #@$%#*@ Phone

So tell me if you think this is weird.
On Tuesday (4/18/2017) I called Cheap Chic. "Hello!" I said to the woman who picked up. "My name is Michelle, I'm a local, I come to Cheap Chic all the time. The reason I'm calling is to ask if you guys could maybe bring your box of vinyl out from behind those shelves? Since Saturday is Record Store Day, I'm planning to walk ar…

It's my 47th birthday. As a Gen Xer with almost half a century of experience, I've come to some conclusions. Here are five things I'm pretty sure about. 1.Guitar Comedy
Hey Demitri, Birbigs, that guy, and that other guy. You know who you are. So, I've given it literally dozens of chances, but I'm afraid it's a no from me, dawg. I love you, but when you reach for that guitar, my brain goes, "Noooooooo!" You're…
Two Aprils ago, on my 45th birthday, I penned a semi-serious list of 45 Things I Know as a way to commemorate the occasion. People seemed to like it. I suspect the reason why that particular essay was met with such unilateral applause is that most of my friends assumed I'd be dead by now. * The thing about writers is that we live an observed life. I have whole scenes in my head, as do most writers I presume, that vividly recall events both maj…
I love Cher. I love that sonorous voice. I love her brass balls attitude. I love her in every movie she's ever been in, especially The Witches of Eastwick. I love Cher so much that I even love total strangers who also love Cher. Whether or not you're a fan of this perpetually raven-haired Gen X icon, you're missing out if you're not following Cher on Twitter. The key to Cher's Twitter brilliance? Chick's got some serious…
Thanks to a Vegas chapel and H&R Block , Joe and I have new pet names, or insults, depending on circumstance and inflection.
Today is my mom's birthday! I called her first thing this morning to wish her a happy day. Because it's a Saturday, Louie doesn't have to work, so she has the whole day planned. But first, out to breakfast, so she had to get off the phone. We set a time to talk next week. When we do I'll ask how today's plan turned out. There is always a story.
There should be a name for the phenom where, every couple of years, you marvel at how many mystery keys you carry around.
Where do all these mystery keys come from?
You toss old, obsolete keys every Key Purge.
You toss the laundry room key from two apartments ago.
You toss the key to a freight elevator located in a building that's been demolished.
You toss what might be a key to a gym locker, or it might be for the mailbox from the buildi…
The first fifty days of the new administration have ushered in an emotionally supercharged period in modern America. People in red states and blue states are in states of confusion, state experts state.
"This is a highly unusual situation," says Dr. Harry Chopin Savage. Savage is an industry leader in applied data science. Dr. Savage is the author of "Big Data and Urban Civilization," currently touring colleges and universit…
