Can’t say I’m surprised by the news that Robin Williams apparently took his own life today. I’ve felt for some time that it was a possibility. I could see, in photos of him, something in his eyes that was light years beyond sadness… Still, the world is a darker place tonight because a funnyman seems

If things keep up the way they’re going now, I’m on track to make more this week than I made all last month. How crazy is that?! I made almost $1000 today, and $100 on Friday. In fact, in the past four days alone (since my Internet started working again on Thursday at about noon)

We had an absolute blast at Freddie Fest in Frederickson today. The weather was warm (82 degrees), Edward Smith from Yelm joined us for the day, and Ted Vigil (John Denver doppelganger) serenaded the festival-goers for at least an hour. What’s not to love? And our favorite networking group, 723 Building Business (723buildingbusiness.com) won two
