Off With Whose Heads – The Bulls Or Bears?
A little background on how I find inspiration to write the Daily each day. It begins with my taking a photograph with my iPhone of something I think might be useful at a future date.

Custom Everything (The Slow, Painful Death Of Mass-Market Goods)
In the early part of the 20th century, three industries – mass manufacturing, mass distribution, and mass communications – completely reshaped consumer behavior. The transition from artisanal goods to modern mass production is the stuff of legend. I remember being awestruck when I toured a Coca-Cola bottling plant with my sixth-grade class. The manager […]
