•   I have been watching the HBO series called “The Weight of The Nation” and I am so impressed with the simplicity of some of what they are discussing. Let me begin by saying that as I sit here today and write this – I am about 50 lbs overweight and I am embarking on a weight loss regime. That said – the one thing that I feel like is THE MOST IMPORTANT place to start – before giving up soda pop and excercixing more… is portion control. Portions out of control… The… Read more

• How to Sulk

•   Sulking is an emotional strike action. You must never agree to anything, only acquiesce. When someone asks if he should bring in the newspaper, you say, “If that is what you want to do.” Out of sight is out of mind. Stay in the same room, but pretend other people are not there. Eye contact is a big no-no. Never inadvertantly smile or take interest in anything. Once you have unsulked – you cannot re-sulk. A sulk can last anywhere from seven minutes to seven years….

• Convert an email to text (sms) for any phone carrier

•  This is a great little tip for anyone who wants to send an email to a client or colleague and have them receive it on their mobile. Most carriers have a specific email domain suffix just for this purpose. In most cases you can simply add the phone number with NO punctuation to the carrier suffix and then send as a regualr email. Verixon for example is “vtext.com”  (ie: 4151234567@vtext.com) – Just look at the list below for the major US carriers and follow the instructions – if… Read more
