I spent a day last week speaking to a Fortune 100 company about the best ways to integrate social media into their marketing plans. These are smart people. But you say "social media" to them, and you have the ability to lead them around by waving a shiny object.

Behold, the KFC Double Down sandwich. It is, if you really want to know, two slabs of fried chicken intersliced with two pieces of bacon, two slabs of cheese, and the Colonel's "special sauce."

These are interesting and difficult times for all Americans, though the predicament of our Republican brothers and sisters bears special reflection.

We are a fear-driven culture. There is a large segment of the population that, no matter how well you document it, will not let a good fact get in the way of their fears about health care reform.

One meaning of the word stupid relates to being "stupefied." By its definition, I think Crowley and Gates were probably both stupefied by the situation that escalated in the Professor's home.

We worry that some Republicans are too influenced by greed or fear or hatred. However, some Republicans are just mind-numbingly stupid.

Okay, Barack. That wasn't you. Okay. I'll accept that, because I like you. I'll go along with this not being on your head thing. But here's a little thought you might want to pass along to your staff.

A thousand years ago, back in 1999, zillions of young people came to cities like New York and ran around looking for jobs even though they had one waiting for them -- at work. It was so much fun to look and change and jump; to job-hop at will.

Things like energy and persistence are important, but look at it this way: Would you rather have an energized horse pulling an empty cart or a cart filled with ideas?
