I know you’re busy, so I’ll get right to it..
You may know that I have my little paws pretty deep into the real estate, online education, and internet marketing games.
These industries excite me for a number of reasons, but never mind me for right now.
Today, I just want to pass along some really cool stuff that I hope you’ll find some value in…and share a video of me almost getting gored by a buffalo 🙂

Internet Marketing: I started dabbling on the internet in 1999, my first company being Grooveright.com (the link is to the Internet Archive, as the site is no longer up). Today, I work nearly completely online and wouldn’t have it any other way. Vanessa Fox, creator of Google Webmaster Central, just wrote a book – “Marketing in the Age Of Google: Your online strategy IS your Business Strategy”. Plain and simple: your clients and your competitors are online…why aren’t you?

Just for fun, I thought it would be a good idea to pet a buffalo.
That’s right, a wild full grown 2,000lb male buffalo.
What on earth was I thinking?
There is explicit language, so young ears may want to cover up.
Also, if your boss knows you have friends that do this sort of thing, you may get fired.
How might I be of service? Ask me anything..
