Okay, I’ve got everything recorded in the appropriate posts as notes from the most excellent TEDx Lansing event today. It was a really great day with fantastic presentations. Tons of good thoughts and ideas for Lansing and all of Michigan. I certainly wasn’t perfect in recording things, whether omissions or inaccuracies, but I did what I could. Continue reading »
And this blog is none the better for it. My last post was many months and moons ago. In that time, a lot has happened however. I did partake in the Twitter hype for quite a while, but also gave that up for the past 5 months. Most recently, though, I finished Gary Vaynerchuk’s excellent book, Crush It! That was an awesome read. If you ever need a book to give you a kick in the pants, read that one.
To that end, I am attempting to resurrect some of my social media outlets to build my personal brand. No, I’m not looking for a new job or plan on starting a solo business next week. I just buy what Gary has to say on putting yourself out there, so that’s what I’m going to do. We’ll see what happens. I’m already 10% of the way toward Gary’s recommended 50 blog post ideas for content, so I’ll be working on creating those and coming up with the other 45.
So, look out second half of 2010. You won’t know what hit you!
Well, this past Thursday evening, Megan and I bought tickets to fly to Cairo, Egypt next February.

As of right now, a majority of their family is going, with at least 6 of us going and possibly more. I say the more the merry, but we’ll see what happens with expanding the tour group.

Just a quick post here to point out I’ve added a library section to the site. I wanted to have a place to record the books I read and see if I can provide a quick summary for anyone interested. I’ve already put in a few entries, but figured I should point it out here since you have to scroll down a bit to see it. Maybe I should add a link up top that points to it. Good idea!
Well, here is my second blog in as many months. Not really sure why I’m starting up this when since I’m already sorely neglecting my other blog, but two has to better than one! Right?? Anyway, this will probably sit for a little bit before I get back to it, but I wanted to get it started. See you soon!
