Santa Doesn’t Live Here Anymore
The challenging economy, a**holes, motherf***ers, moody clients, rodents and childish employees. The past year has been rough. It’s inspired forlorn days of old when life was easier. I remember the sound of laughter. The world gave us hope and we helped the poor, lost children who only had decay as their toy. Imagine my joy […]
Tourism, Socialism and Insomnia Hell
Welcome from South Beach. Not really sure how long this morning’s column will end up being. I’m supposed to be asleep right now, since it’s three in the morning and I’m in a hotel room in Miami, where I’m getting up to go on a supplier diversity conference tomorrow that will occupy my whole day.

Lately, I’m traveling different. I used to roll in some jeans and comfy shoes. Kind of a grunge-under-the radar-look that really doesn’t sit well if you are labeling yourself the “Media Guy.” Now I rock in all black with Armani slacks and a pin stripe Hugo Boss blazer with a purple scarf that doubles as […]
Downward Dog
So I’m told that I have control over my vibe, and goodness knows sometimes my vibe is rather off. At the office I have to say I have an edge. Away from it people think I am pretty pleasant. I keep that vibe going by hiding my dark side with a smile or just keeping […]
En Fuego!
So there I was. The dreaded networking event. I’ve said it before that I’m not a command-the-room-kind-of-guy. I’m definitely the get-to-know-you-kind-of-guy. I like to sit down with you and have a drink and bond with you in a beneath-the-surface conversation. Anyway there I was and guess what? I was on fire; en fuego; I couldn’t […]

What does a Flight Attendant do with a Passenger that says “go f–k yourself?”

Jet Blue employee Steven Slater, 38, was working on Flight […]
