Born at the Right Time: a song for Marshall

For some reason, this song makes me think of my little niece Marshall. This version is performed by a high school. Even though the sound and video quality are a little off, the voices are impeccable. Hope you enjoy watching.

Love is the Killer App...

by Tim Sanders.

I'm not going to write a full review tonight (or this morning as the case may be) but I did just want to let you all know of a book I recently re-picked up after a bit of a hiatus.

Love is the Killer App by Tim Sanders (check the link to his blog on my sites to see list) is written mostly for "bizlife" but makes itself applicable to an entire range of subjects. What entity does not profit by being intimate with its surroundings? Instead of just coasting through our lives, making no waves or contacts and (of course!!) never going into the deep waters--jump in head first! Learn something new about the people with whom you have contact. What do you have to offer them? What can they offer you?

Here is just one example from my personal life: one cold morning I stopped in at one of my favorite non-heated thrift stores. The guys there were bundled up and still freezing. I promised them hot chocolate the next day. When I showed up the next day, hot chocolate mix in hand, were they happy to see me! You know, that box of hot chocolate cost me .99 and a drive to the store. My reward? First pick of vintage sewing items (super yay!) and a sunny smile and warm hello anytime I set foot in the store. I like people. I enjoy solving problems.

Anyway, Love... might or might not be your "cup of tea" but I say, give it a try. Buy it if you find it. I might even be highlighting some of my favorite parts here...you never know.

By the way, it rained today. Hallelujah!!
