speaking of dr phil

February 24, 2007

We WERE speaking of dr phil just now, weren’t we? Oh dear…
No matter — NOW we are speaking of dr phil. I just have one question: Is it true that he was made in the same factory that made the Teddy Ruxpin dolls?

word

It occurs to me that so much of the vast financial industry (banks, credit, telecom) waste can be directly attributed to a fundamental lack of understanding the customer. If you don’t know whom you are dealing with then how do you know when you will get their money? Why pretend to be pals with someone, just to get them on the hook, and then slice them to ribbons with usurious service charges when you can get to know your customer, treat them right, and enjoy repeat business and referrals? As long as there is a real relationship there (you know them — they know you) then there is a bond which is stronger than a thousand dunning calls from Delhi.

Wait a minute… treating people right AND making money in the process? How could that ever work?!!

in the week or so that i’ve posted this “collage”, it has become my “most-viewed” photo in my flickr collection with 100 views! not sure how any of that works, but it’s reassuring to know that this accident had plenty of witnesses….

another half-day?!!

February 2, 2007

Sheesh… Well, actually for me, yesterday was an eighth-day and today was a three-sixteenth-day if billable hours are all that concerns one. In every other respect, they were full-days – full to the brim with whatever we call that stuff that fills our days. To live a life full of full-days… now THAT is what I call living a full-life! Cheers!!

half empty

Goes well with a half-day, don’t you think?

BTW: since, in the expressions “half-full” and “half-empty”, “half” decreases “full” and “empty” as it modifies them, and since “full” is considered positive, and “empty” : negative, wouldn’t it then stand to reason that “half-empty” is more positive, lifting the volume up from emptiness to the half-way mark, rather than dragging it down?
