Here is John Buckley’s blog”Tulip Frenzy” where he discusses “The Business of Happiness”. Of course, John was my co author on the book so it was nice of him to make these personal statements. He also links to a nice CNBC interview from this morning. It too was an honor and pleasure working with John on the book. He is a real talent and made me sound way smarter than I really am.

Monday, February 8th, 2010“The Business of Happiness” is Now #187
Monday, February 8th, 2010Wow I am so flattered and humbled. The book seems to be selling well and it is available everywhere as of today. See Amazon’s ranking for the book as of today. Amazon ranks 600,000 books being sold, so we are moving up the sales rank. Thank you.
We are also now a Top 3 book in the Happiness category, too. I am doing press tours to help promote the book starting on CNBC this morning.
If you read the book may I ask that you write a quick review on Amazon.com? Reviews are very helpful to the consumer marketplace and help with Amazon’s algorithm that judges popularity for a book. Thanks again!
New Orleans Has Come All the Way Back

Let us never forget what happened with Katrina such a short time ago. Here is a great film called “Katrina’s Children” to remind us of what once was and what it can be.
Uplifting news and congratulations to the Saints! And they came back and defeated even Mother Nature. Click here to watch this movie.
NHL Made the Right Call
Monday, February 8th, 2010I am so happy we played the game yesterday afternoon as were 16k fellow Caps fans. All of our employees showed up for the game and the league showcased two great teams. The defending Stanley Cup champs and the team leading the NHL in points that is on a very long winning streak. On Super Bowl Sunday what could be better than that if you love the game of hockey? Some people are calling yesterday’s matinee game the “game of the year” so far.
It was a fun game. A game where we took the Penguins best shot and we still won. A comeback that leaves us feeling humbled even though it is just a regular season game. A win feels pretty good this morning. I empathize with the Pens travel schedule. Having to play back to back games and having travel problems isn’t fair, but we have been on the other side of these same issues. I guess it all evens out in the end.
Thank you for braving the elements. Although to be honest it turned out to be a beautiful day with no traffic and it became an easy commute to and from the game. I was glad I made the decision to go to the game and I believe that the NHL made the right call in NOT rescheduling the game.
If you can believe it, we now have 88 points with 23 games yet to be played. I think one year we qualified for the playoffs with 88 points.
We are on a very important consecutive game winning streak. 14 games in a row place us third in NHL history. This is fun. Enjoy it while it lasts. Go Caps and thank you Caps fans for enjoying the game yesterday afternoon.
