Thoughts on the "Coexist" Bumper Sticker (part 2) The Search for Harmony

Since we have maximized the amount of posting space that will appear in the SI forum, and although the discussion continues, I thought it would be good to start a new one. I invite all of those who have posted before and have been following and those who are new to continue the discussion that Kyle Lacy started. In an attempt to keep it to the Nature of SI... Here are some ground rules for this blog that I hope everyone can respect. 1. Keep it clean (no cheap shots and hitting below the belt) 2… Continue

Ben, if you forward his resume, I can see what I can do. I only lasted about 3 weeks with the DIGGS. My coaching business started getting TOO BUSY! A great problem to have.

Ben, I'm interested in what you have to say about the name Straight and Narrow and how it may imply certain feelings toward homosexuals. Does it matter? Is it offensive even if it wasn't intended?

Thanks....things are great. I'm really focusing on getting into law firms. How about you. Did you ever get a hold of Chris from M&D?

Ben, I know I have to get a photo up soon. No your policy does not cover Earthquake it is a optional coverage that has to be added. The bad news is that all of my companies have put a freeze on earthquake so I will not be able to write it for at least a couple of weeks.

Yeah, I can share. It's more of a case study and the questions asked were open ended. So I picked the BEST answers to support the other data. What might happen is a larger study of the group. I may not be involved in that though. I'll have the case study complete in May. I'll post a link to it on my blog and distribute it to all my friends at SMIN.
