Hello all: I hope you had an awesome weekend! I was inspired to write this post after reading a news release in the Seattle Times about investors profiting from foreclosures this morning.

I am re-blogging my fellow Rainer Amy's thoughts as I feel this should be driving us all. In the meantime, I suggest you all get a copy of "The Go Giver". It's all about giving! Have a great day!Whether you call it paying it forward or giving back, it's something that can change your life. So tel...

Hi all: I'm reminded of the advice to post on the specific area where you live, work, etc. For me, that would be Bellevue, WA. I've lived in the Puget Sound (Seattle area) region for over 30 years now. In that time, I've watched Bellevue grow from a sleepy bedroom community with an outdoor mall (...

Hi all: Good afternoon! I was thinking about blogging this morning. This was after attending a seminar last night on SEO related stuff.
