Survivor Corps, Jerry White, and I Will Not Be Broken

Every once in a while Abraham Harrison gets a great activist client. Clients like Jerry White and the gang at Survivor Corps really make it easy to be the World’s Best Boss, because my staff loves public affairs and non-profit work, that’s for sure — clients who do good works and work to change […]

Let’s Go Check out the Clärchens Ballhaus!

Mark pointed me to this article in the NY Times with this simple comment, “Berlin really is the best city in the world.” Anybody game to checking this place out? I have yet to go out dancing at all in Berlin. For me, it has been 100% dinner parties, lounges, bars, restaurants, and homes. […]

I Grew Up in Salt Lake, Hawaii, as a Little Kid

 

Yes, I have been super-nostalgic recently about my growing up in Hawaii. I have been nostalgic lately but I needed to write a post about SchoolFinder to help a friend and searched for my schools, St. Louis and Aliamanu Elementary schools. Above you’ll see an aerial photo of the neighborhood, Salt Lake, I grew […]

Cook the Whale Eat the Whale

Well, I give up. So many people think I am an evil whale-killer that I will stop fighting. What do you think I am after you read Don’t Save the Whales? Should I be “harpooned and flayed alive?” Well, for those of you who think I kill whales, here are my favorite […]

Dude, I am Downloading Safari for Windows!

I can’t believe it!  I guess I have not been paying attention, eh? Safari for frigging Windows.  All I can think of, however, is that I can be logged into three Wordpress installs as three different accounts at the same time. I have not started using Safari for Windows yet because my iTunes just told […]

Ramiro Miqueli: A Life Well-Lived

“Ramiro Miqueli and Ramiro Miqueli’s brothers enjoyed a privileged, happy life until Cuba went through a Communist revolution that brought misery and chaos to the island in 1959. While Cuba had problems prior to 1959, the Ramiro Miquelis enjoyed democratic rights such as elections, liberty, equality, decency, justice, private property and freedom of the […]

What an Awesome Ferrari Ad from Shell!

I am a huge fan of watching cars buzz through cities. Well, I like to keep Firebrand running sometimes in its “broadcast mode” which just plays and plays through 30-second spots. Well, I heard the sweetest little buzz of the Ferrari and ALT-TABBED to see what was playing. Well, it was this commercial:

Barack Obama Named Kennedy Heir Apparent

My mother endorses Barack Obama, all of my friends endorse Barack Obama, and two Kennedys endorse Barack Obama: Ted Kennedy and Caroline Kennedy both. On the last endorsement, you really need to read Caroline Kennedy’s op-ed piece in the Times. Here’s a choice quote — and she is speaking about Senator Barack Obama, “I have […]
