We All Do!
A word popped into my head this morning as I was driving to the office.
“Polite company.” Hmmm, now that is a thought that can take many twists and turns.
The social interaction that goes with the meal is more important than the plates .But we love it when the environment and the conversation dovetale into a memorable enjoyable gathering.

If we can find a way to undermine it, I believe one can save money and our communities.
While I was down in Dallas evangelizing about Bridge, the Dallas Market Center’s software provider and sister company (called MarketTime) invited me to their offices for a meeting. The goal of the meeting was to explore teaming up to help brands and retailers speed products to market, as well as get a leg up on the competition.
The Dallas Mart consists of two primary buildings, each with atriums and many floors each. I like the Dallas show because of the abundance of ...
