Ever since I received my first business cards, I've had this recurring situation that has yet to change. Each time I get cards printed with my name and title, either my title or my job changes. Every single time. If I could avoid having them printed...
So as I watched my previous job evaporate before my eyes, with little warning, I'm facing the void of space as I hopefully land my next job. Having a wife and four kids, two cars, a house and a hefty student loan to pay on, only adds more layers of...
And I mean that in the most positive and complimentary way, honestly. Gary Vaynerchuk is the host of the Wine Library TV podcast. You can watch it on the web, or on your iPod, iPhone or AppleTV through iTunes also. If you're not aware of Wine Library...

Well, to save you from suffering through my following rant: Yes, I'm all for the Death Penalty. With two caveats: (1) It should only be used when the crime is horrendous in nature (yes, I could define that in great detail if required, but I'll forego...
