This is waaay too much fun. From Susan Getgood's blog I caught the "Five things you don't know about me" meme. Here are mine:
1. I flunked kindergarten. I refused to play house with Ginger Diana -- I can't beleive I can still remember her name. Of course the fact that I was 3 when my parents deposited me in kindergarten might have something to do with my anti-social behavior.
2. The book I'm really working on is a steamy romance called "Steamed Clams and Steamy Nights," based on true stories of things that happened in the Barn --- my house that burned down.
3. My favorite thing to do on the planet is dance. Sex, gardening, running, and listening to music all follow.
4. Twang -- I'm a huge country music and bluegrass fan - the lonesomer the better.
5. I love to fish.
You are the CEO. You should act/ write accordingly. You never know who may be reading a public document from YOUR organiztion. How do you measure that?

Michael, I certainly hope that you don't view my writing as representing the PR profession. I'm NOT a PR person. I'm a research person. We speak with numbers, not words, remember?

Shel, how did I miss that! Can I still blame chemo brain? jet lag? being in Pakistan? old age?

I'm absolutely crushed. I named you on the five secrets meme before Susan and you didn't even notice.

After reading #1 It is clear to me that this is the kind of writing that makes me lose respect for a professional pr person.

These five "things" explain a lot!
