Changing Technology and Why I Use Experts

The past few days have been swallowed up in literally changing technology. Leaving my Clam Chowder blog post as my last post wasn’t my plan but as you read on, you’ll realize why I had little time to try to blog. I did wander around commenting on a few blogs, like Jason Alba’s  Worst Time…

Are You Trying to be a One-Man Band?

At one point, I wrote resumes for local television media on-air personalities and reporters in news, sports, and even weather. During time, I learned their jargon and the insider details in the media industry. For instance, I learned how television market rankings are defined.

I can't help helping

Taming My Life and Learning to Ask for Help
