It shouldn’t bother me, but when you’re totally OCD like me and someone comes into your office and moves books on your bookshelves…….   I literally can’t think until I stop doing this and go fix them.  

OK.

Much better.

Today Mat just HAD to snap this one of me during a critical moment in our design review.    It was an all-day affair and a man’s gotta eat.

Well you see all kinds of things when you’re on the road.   We’ve been trying to take pictures when we can.   And while we thought the “tornado shelter” sign on the women’s restroom in Akron was pretty good, THIS room was awesome.

Here it is 5:39 PM on the first business Monday of the new year and where’s Waldo?  In the airport of course.   Mat, Phil and I are all headed to Canton, Ohio to kick off a new project.   

I guess it’s right.   I have spent so much of my life in airports, on planes, trains and automobiles.  

Anyway, stay tuned for the next couple of installments of Lessons In Management.   Curing The New Year Blues promises to be worth your time as well as Dealing With The Recession. 

Until then…

Welcome everyone!  We are very excited to launch our new website, and my blog!  Within these pages, you’ll be treated to my thoughts on everything from wine to semi conductors, politics to philanthropy; enjoy your stay here, and feel free to facebook me, email, or post comments.  Our goal with the website and blog is to turn strangers into friends, so we’ll need a lot of participation.  If you think my posts are garbage, or that I am an idiot, feel free to comment!  Also, be sure to check out our series entitled, “Lessons in Management” where I share my many, many years of business experience and expertise.  I look forward to hearing from everyone!
