I got to thinking this past week about a strange set of circumstances. My husband, Jeff Wellman and his partners, Dixie Brown & Paul Counts, launched an internet marketing product and the response was so over the top that I was a bit perplexed. I mean…people were calling to say thank you for the customer service, people [...]

Twitter is quickly becoming a way of life for many businesses and folks. Anytime twitter shows a fail whale…(the symbol a person sees when trying to access Twitter and its service is unavailable) people quickly bemoan the fact that they can’t get on. The fail whale doesn’t usually last long…I’ve only seen [...]

Ok, I dont understand this whole financial mess…I admit that. I am no financial genius. However, I do know that if you keep spending money that you dont have…you go deeper in debt. How in the heck is the government going to get money from people who dont have it to give? From taxpayers….correction…from [...]

I can’t believe all of the different things that this inauguration appears to mean to each person that i talk to or read about. Some people are moved to tears by the inspiration of it all. Some people are in awe of the historical nature. For others it is more personal; they have invested so [...]

It is a historical moment in time, this presidential inauguration of 2009; just like every other presidential inauguration since the beginning of the United States. Yet, this one feels different. It feels as though this particular inauguration is getting more attention than any other one, in my memory.
I did not personally vote for [...]

As we once again approach the end of a year and begin another one; it never fails to amaze me how often we repeat the same old patterns. Oh to be sure…there will be the predictible year in review on the news programs…on the entertainment programs; and, even on the morning talk shows. Does [...]

Have you ever noticed that people who have an attitude of thankfulness in their heart are much more pleasant people to be around? That fact was brought home yesterday, when I knew that we would be surrounded with family who has that view on life. It is not so much that life is perfectly happy [...]

Well, the political grudges and paybacks have begun according to news reports. It appears that there are those within the Democratic party who are holding a grudge against Sen. Joe Lieberman for publically supporting Sen. John McCain for president of the United States.
Sen. Joe Lieberman was a Democrat when he ran for the [...]

So, are you buying it? Are you buying the idea that the celebrity,the media and political pundits are perpetuating; that the Democrats and Barack Obama has this Presidential election all tied up? And if you are buying it…are you hearing a little voice inside your head saying…anything that looks too good to be true, probably isn’t [...]

Spending twenty three hours a day with yourself, in jail…would lead most people to do some real introspective deep thinking about the reasons you find yourself sitting behind bars. Especially for a person who had been living the high life as Mayor of Detroit; it is a big lifestyle adjustment. Kwame Kilpatrick will have [...]
