I knew I had a good eye

Did I not rave about the love of my life in an earlier post? The press is affirming my keen discernment - Halo is famous!

Are we going to party like it's 1999?

A few weeks ago I posted a question on LinkedIn asking how the current Web 2.0 "bubble" is different than the first one. Many respondents feel the lessons learned 7ish years ago won't be repeated and took issue with me calling our current market activity a "bubble."

I won't argue....I'll simply instruct them to go* here and see if they still disagree!



* ok, maybe not "go" but you know what I mean

**Extra Extra: I've found love at last!!**

Thirty-eight years of searching and at long last, where I'd least expect it....

HALO THE GUIDE DOG!!

(and I'm a cat person! :)









As you may surmise, Halo is all about physical contact. But there's more to this dog that Bill from Schwab brings in to work once or twice a month: Bill "adopts" dogs like her for a limited period of time to get them trained to be guide dogs for the blind. Dogs like Halo (name is apt, in my opinion) are trained to always look out for their master and to have a heightened sensitivity to the environment rather than meet their own needs first. So not only are dogs like Halo selfless, but people like Bill - who take them in and grow attached to them, only to release them later to benefit others less fortunate - are equally selfless.

I'm not that selfless. I couldn't let Halo go if I had her!










Halo's sad pining look as I leave tugs at the heartstrings
