  • Tweets, Texts, Emails and Fairytales
    Tweets, texts, emails and videos are for life and we must assume they will all be uncovered in the future.  It is critical for everyone to remember their "record" will follow them in life and may undermine fairytales.

  • Leadership, not power

    Good leadership must be selfless and sincere, not self-centered or self-promoting.

  • Gayle Sayers and Brian's Song

    Gayle Sayers played professional football for the Chicago Bears from 1965-1971.  He died yesterday at the age of 77 and his passing has brought the movie Brian's Song to the forefront of my mind.  The incredible courage, respect, sincerity and deep love that Gayle Sayers and Brian Piccolo had for each other as the first interracial roommates in the NFL was portrayed extraordinarily by Billy Dee Williams and James Caan, respectively.   I first watched this at the age of 9 with my father and I cried my eyes out.  Cancer does that, as I would learn two decades later, to my father. During these difficult times I encourage everyone to take 1 hr and 15 min to watch Brian's Song, you'll be glad you did it.
