Win $25 and find me a new email address!
What does $25 mean to you? It’s two cheap meals or one nice one. A trip to the top of the Empire State Building. A bus ride across the Northeast. A tank of gas. A handie in some places and a mouthie in others (though I recommend you partake of neither.) What it means…

Swine Flu! Head for the Hills!
Thank you to all those who voiced concern. I’m fine, and I don’t have swine flu….YET!! It is allergy season, though, and every time I sneeze crowds move further away. I’ll keep it in mind for a good tactic to get through crowded rooms…

Real Estate Sucks
This week I got my first taste of what it feels like to be a New York renter, and let me tell you – it’s terrible. The NY real estate market has softened considerably in the past year. It used to be that a buyer would have to enter apartments at whenever it was convenient…

Crazy news day!
Wow, a lot is happening, most of it tragic. I can’t think of another day when I’ve heard so many unrelated big news headlines: David Kellerman, Freddie Mac CEO commits suicide President Obama makes a landmark speech detailing his new energy policy, and it’s fantastic!

It’s happening more and more.. (The Jonas Brothers? Come on!) Still, how cool to see what you can do at…

Watch Lifelines this month in NY and LA
I really want to let you know about a movie that Sam Levine and I saw this weekend, Lifelines. The film is playing in New York and Los Angeles. It was directed by an acquaintance, Rob Margolies, who is still in his 20s and has accomplished this amazing feat. It’s brilliantly directed (really), well-cast and…

A quick update
The mid-Atlantic is beautiful in April. My friends who went through the bitter winter get angry at me for saying that – the sun doesn’t bake down and it’s certainly not swimsuit weather. Coming from a 60°F purgatory, 40°F is so refreshing when standing in a jacket.. Leaves are starting to grow and the changing…

Get Your Calendaring Together!
I know a lot of very organized people who have their lives in order and are always responsible with their daily schedules. What blows my mind, though, is how few of them have really figured out their calendaring solution such that their calendars work for them. There’s no excuse – you don’t need an iPhone,…
