Whenever I fly, I recall this video.
Today, I watched it on my flight home.
Via WiFi.
Sitting in a non-reclining chair.
With my teeth floating due to the extended turbulence.
Trying not to laugh too hard…

Just what it says…General
I’ve been in New Orleans the past few days for a meeting and tonight, while walking around the Quarter, saw Grandpa Elliott – New Orleans icon and participant in the Playing for Change project (he is at 1:05 in the video below.)
I watched him from a distance for a bit and noticed people simply passing him by – almost not “seeing” him sitting there on the corner (the way most do when walking around and seeing street people or musicians.)
Today’s post prompt on “The Daily Post at WordPress.com” was:
If you had a time machine that only let you spend one hour in a different time, what date would you go to?
One additional, self-imposed caveat: …And, in going to that date, you COULD NOT change the future.
My answer:

What are you looking forward to this year?
My answer:
Hmmm? Where to begin? Continue Reading…
Yes, today is 365.
One year ago, I changed the way I eat/think about food.
OK, so this is the umpteenth time I’ve done this. Been there, done that, got the t-shirt, it fit, then it didn’t. But dag nab-it, I’m trying to make it stick this time.

Share a story about a memorable job interview
My Answer
Quite a few years ago, I got a call from a headhunter looking to fill a job – they actually were calling a number of people where I worked as they had quite a few openings. They weren’t telling all of us…but we still figured it out. I ended up finagling the company’s name out of the person (hey, I’m not stupid!) and said I’d interview for the position.
I’m sure that process happens quite often – though for me it was a first.
