…Reinvent The Wheel or Copy It?
Think about it this way. What was the most game-changing thing ever made, other than the internet? The wheel right? All part of the leverage thing right? Correct. What was before the wheel? No idea, but it probably required lots of pushing and manual labor.…
Do You Really Know Your Destiny?
This thought just hit me out of the clear blue sky. Actually, it was in the middle of the night so the sky is dark, but before we diverge down another rabbit trail…

Why Big Businesses SUCK
I am truly starting to get annoyed with the marketing, advertising, and management of big companies.

It prompted this response from him later in the day:
This is the reply I sent back to him and am awaiting a response:
I am genuinely interested in getting to the bottom of this question.…
