The Sad Plight of the OxyMorons

The dead man splayed on the sidewalk looks ready to be drawn and quartered like an angus cow. Cops are called to pick him up before his corpse starts to stink. One couple is huddled together on the ground in front of a doorway.  The woman lies on the top of the man and sticks a hypodermic needle into his lip. A young black boy, curled into fetal position, is passed-out under a sleeping bag. His baseball cap has fallen off his head and while he appears to be asleep, there is no way to tell if he’s dead, unless you want to touch him and no one wants to do that. Outside the parking garage, spoons, needles and matches are left on the ground like the remnants of a messy supper.  And this is the wealthy part of town.

Digital Strategy to Feed the Planet

In the early days of personal computers one of the selling points was the idea of keeping recipes on file, stored on the PC or a floppy disc. Ordered, retrievable, easily cross-referenced by ingredients, making it easy to make a shopping list and to follow the directions.  No more tattered papers, no more lost recipes folded or stored in a book somewhere.


Humanity Will Step Up

People forget and focus on the minutiae instead of on the bigger picture. We have to look at the bigger picture—our species and the human race. People know deep down inside that they have to keep humans alive. People are always going to step up, saying we need to stay alive.


Wali Collins Walks the Line

We love Wali Collins! He is America’s most loved Comedian.  Most important of all, he’s a really nice guy who cares about making the world a better place.  Check out his interview on On Life, Racism and the World. 


Wali Collins’ Right Foot

What can be more challenging than standing on stage and coming up with the right joke at the right time? Comedians are the ultimate communicators. They know more about what makes us tick than most psychologists. No one knows more about opinions that fuel misunderstandings more than Comedian Wali Collins. As America’s Most Lovable Comedian, he knows the ins and outs of what makes great comedy as much as he knows what mistakes people make when they’re trying to tell the truth.


Another Take On Inspiration

Just happened to be scrolling through my Facebook feed and came across a suggested post, which is sort of an advertisement for the "iPhone School Of Photography." What was interesting was the fellow in the video was not trying to sell the school, but was actually giving real, usable information for free.
