My property manager was let go today. I’d like to say I didn’t see it coming, but I’m afraid that’s not the case. Ironically, I thought she’d be fired because she was putting in a lot of extra effort, and I could see this happening (though that’s not the official version of course). About a …

The cheese is gone
I just caught the tail end of an HBO documentary called “Hard Times:lost on long island” which followed four familiis as they struggle with the downturn in the US economy. I must say it brought back some troublesome memories. I remember well being unemployed for several years, wondering where the money for food was going …

Conversion rates
Ever wonder how many people who attend a “life changing seminar” ever actually change? What kind of “return on investment” drives all those late night infomercials and seminars? Well, the truth is, all these ads you see to change your life work on less than a 2% conversion rate. That doesn’t mean that 2% of you …

Coming to terms with yourself
There comes a time in most people’s lives when they need to come to terms with the fact that they are they can’t continue doing things the same way anymore. The reason behind this can be varied, a lifestyle change, getting older, divorced, death, car accidfinal financial meltdown, etc. For me, it was a physical thing. …

Striking out
From the title of this post, was your first thought that this article would be about failure, or did you think it would be about adventure? My guess would be the former. We live in a negative society. People tend to hate success it seems, unless they are the successful ones. Let’s tax the rich …

Never forget to live
A friend of mine has a husband in the final stages of cancer. It’s a hard time for her, and I know because I went through it with my mother. It’s times like this that make me appreciate the life I’ve chosen to live. My mother was a work-a-holic, she’d volunteer for nearly everything she could …

What to do when you don’t want to do it
Physically, I hate this time of year. The weather changes are a nightmare for my body. Anyone who thinks it’s cool to get “hit on” by women all the time better mean they aren’t driving a Honda at the time. When I feel like this, it makes it tough to get motivated to do anything. It …

Computer weirdness
Well, for some reason, last night I appear to have lost my Real Estate category from my projects list. Not sure why… I went through the site rather quickly and manually put it back in. At the same time, I took the opportunity to re-classify some of the other projects. As the site has grown and …

New look and feel…no good deed goes unpunished.
So, after about a week of tinkering, I think we can proudly announce that we’ve finished the transition to a new look and feel. Of course, over the transition period, we’ve received some feedback, mostly pointing out silly errors on my part…which prompted today’s posting… A friend of mine, my best friend as it turns out, …
