There May be Some Swelling and Discomfort.

I have decided today that I am not and never will be talented in the art of Networking; no, not the computer kind. I mean working a room. I can't do it. I just can't flit from V.I.P flower to V.I.P flower, like a hellbent marketing butterfly. I witnessed someone working a room today...simply brilliant; but alas, I fall short. Making small talk and remembering everyone's son's, daughter's, nieces, nephews, and significant other's names...not my forte'. I can speak in front of crowds, and if drunk enough,even sing in front of crowds, but not this. Thankfully, there are people who can.


Schmoozeless in Seattle,



It boggles the mind: in the Parade a question asked of Marilyn Vos Savant.

"Do you believe it is possible to love someone without ever liking them?"
"Why yes...we love, visit, and even give presents to people we don't like." "They're called Relatives." ;)

You know some politicians actually hire consultants to remember names? People love being remembered, and if someone is remembered, they'll tell everyone they knew that so and so politician remembered them. It really works in getting people to like a politician.

"Do you believe it is possible to love someone without ever liking them?"

She actually answered it how I would have. ;)

Too bad I don't have a consultant. You know a lot about politics so, I'm going to start an elect "Zombieslayer for President," campaign. When you win, just don't Fema it up okay? ;) heheheh! I'm sorry to be using your word so frequently...I just like it.
