— Rodney King, 1992

Read these quotes this morning:

Every man has a right to utter what he thinks truth,
and every other man has a right to knock him down for it.

–Samuel Johnson

The right to be heard does not automatically include
the right to be taken seriously.

–Hubert Humphrey

Its interesting how each person is perceived differently depending upon which side of the conversation they find themselves…

Too often, we forget that in our daily interactions with each other…

I know I can and should do better.

If someone had walked by my office wearing magical goggles a few times today, they would have seen something like this instead of me sitting calmly at my desk.

Great read over at Seth Godin’s blog:

I bought this mug a while back and started using it again recently – mainly because it holds the most water…

Sometimes I leave it in the kitchen to dry or carry it to meetings…bwahahahahaha!

2 Manny I Ron’s

Funny, when I write it out that way it doesn’t seem that bad!  But, that is the state I often find myself in – through no one’s fault but my own!

Oh well…

If you’ve ever wondered, the phrase comes from blacksmiths putting bars of iron in the fire to get them hot enough to work with.  The smith had to be aware of the status of the iron and if he had too many to keep track of, it could be a big problem!

Are you a “2 Manny I Ron’s” -type person too?
