The CEO suggested that I post a TED.com video once a week.
When I listen/watch these videos, I can’t help but feel hopeful and optimistic. These are the interesting, fascinating people of our time. I’m delighted to take a day to share them.

About a year ago, I decided to learn everything I could about the latest research in diet and weight loss. I have worked out for over 30 years. It was time to learn something new.
Here’s the best, all be it odd, facts about losing weight:
1. Calories don’t matter that much.

What can I add to a conversation about someone that so many people have talked about?

Here’s what happened…..
We were on our way to attend an Earth Expo (another story).
“Do you mind if we stop off at Meinenger’s? I need to get some more ink,” I said.
