Three Notable Global Thought Leaders–And Why They Matter

Jim Taggart · We’re adrift as a society, seeking leadership for the way ahead. · We strive for meaning in our nano-second lifetimes on Planet Earth. · And we hope for some measure of contribution to our community, and society at large, during that nano-second burst. · Life is too short; indeed ...

Time for some humour

Royce Shook · My thanks to my Facebook friends for these great lines from Hollywood Squares: · Q . Paul, what is a good reason for pounding meat? · A. Paul Lynde: Loneliness! (The audience laughed so long and so hard it took up almost 15 minutes of the show!) · Q. It is the most abused and ne ...

Listening skills

Royce Shook · I love this, thanks to Calvin and Rob for this. ·  A man feared his wife wasn't hearing as well as she used to and he thought she might need a hearing aid.  Not quite sure how to approach her, he called the family Doctor to discuss the problem. · The doctor told him there is a si ...

A Love Story (Love in the Age of Writing, Publishing and Grammarian Lust)

Robert Cormack · This won’t be sentimental as such. I’ve read enough sentiment to realize love stories are like love songs. They have a beginning and an end. Paul McCartney doesn’t like them to have an end, but he’s willing to admit his are “silly.” That’s probably why John Lennon said Paul “ ...

Are You Radiating Out? Are You Inspiring People?

Robert Cormack ·                · Not everybody worships at the altar of creativity. Some people think we could do without it. Who needs crazy ideas when there are solid fundamentals?

Bees Swarm. Bad News for My Kid, Not Great for LinkedIn Either

Paul "Pablo" Croubalian · That's my "little boy," Peter. At 6'2," 235 pounds, he's not so "little." He's still MY little boy. The picture is what he woke up to this morning.

There is a major issue here, and it's not beBee's fault. It's Ours

Paul "Pablo" Croubalian · Let me tell you a story about my son. He's 28 now, this happened when he was 4. He drew a picture. It may have been a cow. It might have been a deer.
