That’s me – if I’m running a conference call, I tend to talk too much — even if we have an agenda, I wander off topic and I’m sure can be confusing to anybody on the call.  On the flip side, I have been on a call where the same thing happens and find myself losing focus and checking email…  so presumably this is happening to others, too.  We are in such a rush, we have too much on our plates, we are trying to cram in way too many meetings, every day, every...

Texans across the state today are celebrating what it is to be a proud Texan. Whether due to birth or relocation, Texas pride is a very real thing.  I can say that I am a fifth generation Texan, which is when my ancestors became the transplanted ones, hailing from Mexico, Spain, Canada, France and England.
