This post wasn’t meant to be here – it sprung from a thought I had, which I then posted as a status on my Facebook page. Here’s the thought: Wouldn’t it be cool if big corporations that supported charities took an allocation of their donation, and paid for consultants to help non-profits learn about social… [Continue Reading]
Two of my favourite actors are Joe Pesci and Danny DeVito. Both different actors, yet also so very similar. Pesci is more your serious actor that’s famous for his gangster roles (Goodfellas, Casino, Once Upon a Time in America) although he’s had some great comedy roles too (My Cousin Vinny, Lethal Weapon 2, Home Alone).… [Continue Reading]
I’ve written before why I’m passionate about creativity being allowed to shine. Without it, we’d be left in a boring world where only the few would have a say in what we watch, say or do.

“If you can’t stand the heat, get out of the kitchen.” Harry S. Truman. It’s been a funny old week in social media. The natives are getting restless and angry. People are questioning more, and accepting less. This is a good thing. When we accept for too long, we become immune to what’s right, or… [Continue Reading]
We need to grow some balls. Not all of us – there are some folks that have balls the size of Jupiter and show them every day. But they’re becoming fewer in numbers, and that’s a shame. A lot of folks blame social media for this. I can see why. If you question someone and… [Continue Reading]

I have a problem with the term “thought leader”.
