I’ve been doing marketing for a looong time, and during that time, I’ve adopted lots of interesting (to me) activities. One that has been constant in my life in some form has been music. But another has been woodworking. This is something no one knows about me, really because I don’t talk about it. It’s……

All Work and No Play Makes Michael a Dull Boy
As I’m now middle-aged, I can admit some characteristics about myself that I would deny as a child, which my daughter denies and shares. I see so much of myself in her. Ironically there are traits that I also notice she doesn’t share with her mother which I recognize, and some that she does, which……
