There’s No Fool Like This April Fool
Maybe you’re in a frame of mind to live up the promise of this day, but I’m nowhere near that jovial. In fact, I’m feeling far more like a fool than ever. If I’m to believe the urban myth that CNBC18.com attributes the origins of April Fools Day to, I guess I have to thank,
I’ll Be There For You (Cause You’re There For Me, Too)
I used to watch a LOT of reruns of FRIENDS. In a prior chapter of my life, it was, in fact, one of the few respites from a life that, while it was financially and professionally better than the place I’m in now, was dominated by an awful lot of people and situations where the
Today is Martin Luther King Day, and even though we’re now approaching four decades of its being celebrated on the third Monday in January to commemorate the birth of the famed civil rights leader, a lot of people in my orbit are still surprised when they realize it’s a holiday. Some even snark–Lord, it’s been
He Can Be Your Bodyguard. You Can Call Him Almony*
*–Or, you can call him Bubba. Or Adriano. Or Mr. Almony. Or even Sir. Frankly, my advice would be to call him whatever he’d prefer to call be called. However, if you happen to be the President of the United States, you’d call him a Lifetime Achievement Award winner, and bestow that honor upon him.

The Grieving Process Continues
So I actually began therapy this week, which I am sure won’t come as a surprise to any of you, and perhaps a relief to those who still give a damn. With all of the losses I’ve experienced of late, and with absolutely no hope of changing anyone else’s deadset opinions about how (or if)
Most mornings, I usually am inspired by something in the news, whether it’s in pop culture, media or the world at large, to offer my views, insights and experiences in a manner unique to my journey and, hopefully, matter to any of you who choose to invest even a few seconds while you’re sipping coffee,
Somehow, I’ve made it to another Thanksgiving Day, and, if you’re reading this, so have you. Thanksgiving, for me, has always been associated with family. No matter how distant or disjointed my circumstances were at any point, I would always somehow have some family member willing to share turkey, stuffing, and my personal favorite seasonal
Can’t We All Just Pray Nice Together?
In media research, a common advanced study to identify audience segments is called an “only-only-both”, essentially a Venn diagram mapping of how two particular programs’ viewerships compare and contrast. Depending upon the business objective, there is potential upside from either conclusion. If you’re a marketer, you would hope the two shows have a large common
On many occasions when I compose these musings, I’m often doing so when it’s quite dark, quiet and the world is otherwise asleep. For those of you who are perhaps too distant or detached to know better, or even care for a millisecond about the feelings that go into this, suffice to say on many,
