Ever wanted to start your own small business? No? OK, then. You can stop reading this blog post right now and go back to being happy with not owning a small business.
I’ve loved fishing all of my life. But do I know what I’m doing? No, and not surprisingly I don’t catch many fish.
Tonight is the season premiere of Mad Men. I could write an in-depth preview of my thoughts on what will occur this season. But, there are a lot of other blogs that probably do that sort of thing and do it way better than I would or want to.
Like many other bloggers, I write daily. I do freelance writing for small businesses as my main hustle, and I also like to capture my thoughts and ideas on paper before they are lost forever. So I write all the time, but not everything I write is worthy of a blog post. But, this is, […]
I’ve played sports my entire life that I can remember. I still do. I play ice and roller hockey year round on competitive mens league teams in the Boston area. Am I good? It’s all relative.
Nobody knows what happens when you buy the farm, kick the bucket, or just plain die. But we can blog about it.
Have you ever thought of a great idea (in your opinion, at least…and let’s face it, sometimes that’s ALL that matters) only to hear, “That already exists.” That happened to me once. I thought I invented the number eight.
Chances are good you already have a daily grind aka “real job”. However, if your daily grind is not EXACTLY what you WANT to be doing, then that means you are not living the life YOU want. So how do we change that right NOW from the get for FREE?
I ask people what they would do as a dream job, however I specify that it has to be a job that they would enjoy greatly AND is actually feasible if certain steps are taken (education, training, certification, tools, experience, etc.) Not surprisingly, the answer given usually differs from the person’s real job.
When you try something new and outside of your comfort zone, such as a new business venture or hobby, then you are guaranteed at least one (or all) of three things will happen. They are: Success Failure Knowledge If you succeed at opening a thriving business and achieve your goals, then you can consider that […]
I’ve been a rap fan since the early 80’s, beginning with my first viewing of Breakin’. Some of my other favorite memories and rappers from the various eras include: The mid-to-late 80’s: Yo! MTV Raps, Beastie Boys, and other OG’s of the genre and hip hop culture. The early 90’s: classic joints from the likes […]
— Nemo update: still digging out, but no more additional accumulation. The real fun now? Giant snowbanks, especially at intersections. Also, digging out your car safely, meaning: UNBLOCK THE TAILPIPE.
— Greetings from “Nemo England” or the “NemoEast” or whatever clever name we are branding this winter blizzard! At last measurement, we had over 2 feet of accumulation in the Boston area, depending on snowdrift. New Englanders are a hearty and resourceful folk, and we are experts at preparing and planning ahead. Also another first […]
Sad news today in the feline world. Stewie, recognized by the Guinness Book of World Records as the World’s “Longest” Cat, passed away today at the much too young cat age of 8. I know from experience that it sucks to lose a pet. However, the article stated that “Stewie was always very social and […]
Saw this amazing post on the Flickr Blog about artist Christopher Renfro who turned a negative (borderline personality disorder) into a positive. Basically…he converted a “crutch” into a bazooka blasting incredible art all up in YOUR EYEBALLS! NO LASIK REQUIRED! But, what I also love about this story (besides the cool light art photography images) […]
— Here at Idea Hunters, we hope to bring you the hardest hitting news and…actually, no. I’m not a news site. Leave that to other sites. I’m just a dude with a website talking about business, marketing, pop culture, and whatever else comes to mind. For now. Tomorrow, it could be about chili. Who knows. […]
— It’s been a little over a week since my LASIK surgery, annnnnnd…I feel great. No problems, no issues. 20/20. (Hmmm…ever wonder why they call it 20/20? ) The entire healing process takes about 6 full months or more before it levels out, so I will give you an update then, which will be in […]
In case you are a fan of amateur roller hockey (and who isn’t), here are some photos from my team, the Tornadoes, in the Eastern Massachusetts Roller Hockey League (EMRHL) championship held yesterday at Hockey Town in Saugus, Massachusetts. If you weren’t one of the dozen in attendance (including the rink employees, a bored infant, […]
In anticipation of Breaking Bad starting up again, I’d like to talk about my habitual use of Crystal, er, specifically Crystal Body Deodorant. I’ve been a loyal user of this stuff for almost 3 years. How do I know this? Because that’s how long just one stick (my first Crystal) lasted me.
