I find his name ironic. Bernard MADOFF – and he did – he made off with billions of dollars in other people’s money. Can a man be more than greedy? If so, Madoff fits the bill. What I now find absolutely appalling is the victims of Madoff’s Ponzi scheme are getting hit again – this time in public. No... Sign in to see full entry.

PLAYLIST
PLAYLIST Exercise is not my thing. I mean, it’s not that I hate hard work. I don’t mind that. But I hate mindlessly exercising. I need a purpose. For example, we are remodeling our house.

“Always make sure you change your underwear every day. If you ever have an accident you want to make sure you have on clean underwear.” So my mother said.

KODAK AND J. CREW - SMART OR NOT
Kodak and J. Crew had an opportunity and I’m not sure either one of them effectively used it. I wanted to explore Michelle Obama’s style choices and how it might affect the average consumer. I thought “wow” for individual designers she has chosen and another “wow” for pulling it together with the... Sign in to see full entry.

When he works he works tons of... Sign in to see full entry.
