"You make a pig fly when you suspend disbelief and hoist an unimaginable load." CRD 7-17-08
You, hereby, bear witness to the birth of yet another blog -- likely as insufferable as any on record. More than a couple of people have routinely suggested it over the years.
I finally concluded that a blog is as good a place as any to store my historical repertoire of mixed metaphors, malapropisms, and (frankly) down-right funny sayings. My colleagues and employees over the years will recognize most of them. They endured these verbal asides while actually doing real work and turning around broken businesses with me. All while pretending to be highly amused about the process.
When you begin your college career as a Journalism major, you think you're going to write all your life. After you run across the quad to the Business School, your writing eventually takes a turn to business propositions, yearly dissertations about how you're going to make another impossible-to-make annual plan, and editing the work of a bipolar ad agency copywriter. You wonder what you might have been missing.
So, I'm going to speak. (WOOF!!) I'm going to ramble about stuff that probably matters only to me. Or, maybe I'll get a burst of insight and deliver a chapter about something that other people actually want to read, too.
OR, writing a little post every day might lead to an unbelievable, incomprehensible idea. Like.............a BOOK!
Sure, When Pigs Fly!
