  • Congratulations

    There are a lot of congratulations to give. Starting with my sister who on Friday found out she passed the bar exam. Congratulations are also in order for Justin and Pierre who found out they will soon be fathers and Robin and Angel, who just brought children into the world. Last, but not least are…

  • USCF – 5 Weeks & Counting

    We have 5 weeks before the World Championships in Finland and I no longer think there will be an American team in attendance.

  • Management Lesson 4

    An eagle was sitting on a tree resting, doing nothing. A small rabbit saw the eagle and asked him, “Can I also sit like you and do nothing?” The eagle answered: “Sure, why not.” So, the rabbit sat on the ground below the eagle and rested. All of a sudden, a fox appeared, jumped on…

  • Management Lesson 3

    A sales rep, an administration clerk, and the manager are walking to lunch when they find an antique oil lamp. They rub it and a Genie comes out. The Genie says, “I’ll give each of you just one wish.” “Me first! Me first!” says the admin clerk. “I want to be in the Bahamas, driving…

  • USCF – 7 Weeks & Counting

    We have about 7 weeks to the IFC World Championships and little has changed in the past week. I have talked to the coaches for the coed team, but no reportable progress on the all-girl team. The coed team has the potential to be legendary. All of the alumni I talked to are interested in…

  • USCF – 8 Weeks & Counting

    So far things have been moving pretty slow, but at least things are moving. I’ve had a few conversations with USCF head, Stephanie French, and Marcel Hammond, one of the board members. We are in agreement on the direction we need to head if things are going to work out. I’ve talked to 2 of…

  • Management Lesson 2

    A priest offered a Nun a lift. She got in and crossed her legs, forcing her gown to reveal a leg. The priest nearly had an accident. After controlling the car, he stealthily slid his hand up her leg. The nun said, “Father, remember Psalm 129?” The priest removed his hand. But, changing gears, he…

  • The Nun at Hooters

    A nun, badly needing to use to the restroom, walked into a local Hooters. The place was hopping with music and loud conversation and every once in a while “the lights would turn off.” Each time the lights would go out, the place would erupt into cheers. However, when the revelers saw the nun, the…
