Eleanor Roosevelt has today's quote of the day. Maybe it's about war, and maybe it's just about sharing one world:

There's just something about the old school black-bound daily scheduling calendars that I like much better than an computerized scheduling program. Sorry Outlook.

Maybe it's the touch and feel, or that you can scribble all over it's pages. Just be careful not to spill that first office cup of coffee on it!

Micky Mouse is a RSS man.

And I might be one soon, too. I'll have to think about it a bit. The owner of the Blog Business World Blog suggested that it's the wave of the future in a comment earlier today. I guess if Mickey can do it, I can too.
I've always wondered if those automated phone messages were listening to me hurl expletives at them.

It appears that they will, and they will do something about it.

Rudderless. Directionless. Somedays that's the way it feels when you've got a lot of decisions to make, and no notion of which ones are best.

Where do you find direction? What inspires you, and motivates you thoughout the day?

Here's one to keep in mind from Theodore Roosevelt:
Whenever you are asked if you can do a job, tell 'em, 'Certainly, I can!' Then get busy and find out how to do it.

Why is public access to public records so hard?
