Do This For Your Top Clients Now!

“Wazzup” as they use to say in the late 90’s. Last Friday, I left my office to grab a bite to eat at Dagwood’s Restaurant and then make a pit stop at my local smoke shop, Brightleaf Tobacco, where I picked up a couple of primo cigars for the weekend. After I made my selection, I headed over to the register to cash out. I pulled out a fifty for... [Read more of this review]

Once A Buyer, Always A Buyer

Last weekend I took the family up to the beautiful historic seaport town of Newburyport, Massachusetts. It’s one of my fave towns in Mass.

The Shopping Spree Begins As we were walking out of an ice cream store, my littlest daughter saw a sign for a pet store across... [Read more of this review]

Check out this really cool picture that I found in Science Illustrated. The picture was taken with a thermal imaging camera of a group of lions that attacked a zebra on the African savanna.

The year will be just about a quarter done. What have you accomplished so far this year?

The Investor’s Approach To Striking It Big In The Security Biz (Video Blog)

Here’s a quick little video I shot in the front hallway of my historic office building. If you look closely at the wallpaper hanging on the wall, it’s about 100 years old. When we renovated the building last year, I decided to keep the wallpaper instead of tearing it down because it preserved the history of the building. Everybody that enters the... [Read more of this review]

Discover Muhammad Ali’s Secret That Will Help Knock Out Your Competition Discover Muhammad Ali’s Secret That Will Help Knock Out Your Competition

Muhammad Ali was my Dad’s all-time favorite boxer, and he was mine, too. Back in 1964, Sonny Liston was considered invincible and “the baddest man on the planet.” That is until a super fast-talking, super fast-moving kid, named Cassius Clay, came along and cleaned his clock and then took Sonny’s title away. By the time the rematch was made,... [Read more of this review]

The Pricing Terrorist

My head is still ringing from Eddie Van Halen’s 10 minute guitar solo which included “Eruption,” “Cathedral,” and the opening of “Mean Streets.” It was like watching Michelangelo paint a thousand beats per second. These rock gods from Southern Cally are one of my favorites rock bands. Van Halen, opened the show with a take-no-terrorist-alive... [Read more of this review]

Wag More Bark Less (Video Inside)

I saw the “Wag More Bark Less” bumper sticker that was plastered on the back-end of a Chevy Tahoe in front of me in the Dunkin’ Donuts drive through. It brought a smile to my  face cuz I thought immediately of my little ol’ office/home dog, Maeve. She brings a smile to my face and to everyone that meets her. Maeve’s always wagging her tail,... [Read more of this review]
