I’ve never been more frustrated, reading the national news each morning. I think Trump and his sycophantic group of unqualified losers are causing so much damage to our country – and it’s reputation worldwide – that it will be irrecoverable. The question I wrestle with is what to do about it. I’m not going toContinue reading “All Solutions Are Local”

Have I reinvented myself?
Someone said recently that I have reinvented myself. It was a comment based on a posting I made recently on LinkedIn that I have just joined the Board of Directors of Junior Achievement of Maine.
