“It's time to stop hiding behind brands, corporate policies or the way things used to be. Evolve. Get better. Let's learn from each other. It's called the Collaboration Revolution. Welcome to the Relationship Age.” - Tyler Hurst

I want to…

I want to see like an eye, the first time it recognizes color. I want to smell like a nose, the first time it encounters a pleasant aroma. I want to hear like an ear the first time it connects hearing to sight. I want to feel like skin does the first time ...

Being handicapped sucks

Here's a list of things I can't do: Shower without someone there to change my bandage. Run. Lift. Stretch. Sit without pain. Get into a car without pain. Twist. Wrestle. Get wet. Get sweaty. I will never make fun of anyone with a bad back again, because their situation is similar to mine. Hell, I need a bar moved and for ...

It was weird today when…

...the guy at Home Depot refused to look up and help me while I stood at the desk. I hate poor customer service. ...some jackass in a rust-colored, rice-rocketish car pulled in front of the car I was in. I don't like that guy and I don't even know him yet. ...when ...

Organic and natural food companies are ignoring their customers. Why?

Conferences like Expo West are quite a good time. Ripe with natural products, organic foods and healthy treats, companies that exhibit at Expo West cater to a very specific type of customer.
