  • Was Rembrandt Paranoid?

     One of my favorite museums is the Norton Simon, located almost exactly where the annual Rose Parade begins, in Pasadena, California.The collection is small and selective, and it includes life size outdoor sculptures and works by the major players in art history.Two paintings are especially enjoyable, hanging as they are on opposite walls, the figures seeming to be in constant eye contact with each other.More

  • Snooze Wars: The Battle Between The Sheets

     A few months ago, I wrote a tongue-in-cheek piece titled, “Nap For Success.”As I was scanning the ratings of my articles I noticed at least one reader hated it, awarding it a single star.For a moment I thought about that person, and the millions of people he represents.More

  • The Devil and Woody Allen

     It has been said if the gods want to punish you, first they’ll give you forty years of success.Woody Allen is being punished.Imagine being a comedian with a brooding soul who longs for fame and fortune as a serious writer and director, but who can only find these rewards by making people laugh.More

  • Movie Review: "Pirates of The Caribbean 2"

     The mangy dog in Pirates of The Caribbean 2 got the biggest laugh today, during the movie’s opening afternoon, and deservedly so.I tried to stay awake, and believe me, I don’t sleep at the movies.People next to me, obviously Johnny Depp fans, laughed at the scenery, providing he was in the frame.More

  • Customer Service Consultant Says: At A Buck A Video, Netflix Is Coming Through!

     I’m finishing the end of my first week of the two-week trial subscription with Netflix, and I have to say, I’m impressed!(1) They promised about a one business day turnaround on orders, and they’re on their game! Let’s say you return your video to them and they receive it on Monday; by Tuesday, you may have the next video on the list that you submitted, parked in your mailbox.More

  • Customer Crusader Cries: So Many Choices, So Little To Watch!

     You’ve undoubtedly had the experience of turning on your TV, for a long time now, “powered” by cable or satellite, and you realize to your regret, that there’s NOTHING on that you want to watch.How can this be?Hundreds of channels, such as the “Watching Paint Dry Channel” and “The Quilting Channel” and the “All Infomercials Channel,” and still, you have no interest in even pressing the remote.More

  • Motivational Speaker Says: Go To A Ballgame & Get In Touch With Your Feelings, Pal!

     Lots of people just don’t get baseball, despite its billing as The National Pastime.In fact, some believe it is far past its time, that football, college or the pro’s, or even soccer are more exciting to watch.But I have a thesis for you to consider.More

  • Customer Service Speaker Explains The Customer Service Manifesto: Part 3: Give Me What I Need!

     As customers, we all need to make these ten declarations to businesses in order to get all of the service and satisfaction we deserve.I call it The Customer Service Manifesto.(1) You serve me; I don’t serve you.More

  • I'm Young Enough & Old Enough!

     I was strolling down the alley one morning in Chicago when I happened upon a paradise.Kids were on swings, climbing on the rooftops of miniature houses, and making a lot of noise.I poked my nose through the chain link fence, and asked one of the merry makers:“How old do you have to be to get in here?More

  • Unplugged For Three Months And Going Strong!

     Fed up with the satellite company, and fully aware of the fact that with 200 or more channels I still had frightfully little to watch and enjoy, I unplugged.I cancelled my subscription around New Year’s, and decided that I’d simply rent videos and watch occasional fuzz vision, whatever I could pull in through the urban airwaves.This is my report, approximately one quarter after taking the free fall into non-HBO land.More
