Did Someone Order a Unicorn?
The Indian Rhinoceros could be considered a unicorn
(its latin name is Rhinoceros unicornis)
Not the unicorn you were expecting?

Somewhere in there is a lesson about expectation and perception.
Think about the last time something (or someone) didn’t live up to your expectations.
Were there different perceptions about what those expectations were?
If you tell someone you’re looking for a unicorn, how do you know they share the same perception of the unicorn you’re expecting?

Inside the Bloggers Studio: Meet Mitch Wagner
I’ll be honest with you. I’d planned to write a riveting mini-bio on today’s featured guest, Mitch Wagner.
See, Mitch is an incredibly interesting guy. It’s only fair to write something incredibly interesting about him then, right?
But Mitch had to go ahead and – *gasp!* – upstage the blogger.
That’s right. You heard me. Upstaged. Me. I can’t compete with Mitch’s answers . Anything I could write would pale in comparison. [click star to read full post]
what I'm up to- Happy 90210! (I think Donna was my favorite - who was yours?)
