I took a long stroll today along the Pacific Ocean from Waikiki's yacht basin to the Moana Hotel (where I had promised myself to get a smoothie). And found the ultimate pool at the Sheraton Waikiki. This was not a kiddie pool, this was a grownup type of pool: 1. It's an infinity pool that seemin...

A week after I rescured a little dove that had dropped out of its nest and no parents in sight, it is now quite the little character.

What do you say when your clients, the seller, asks you about advertising in a regional or special interest magazine? This just came up again recently and I would like to revisit it.
