Oh come on will ya!!!! I don't believe that anyone actually fell for that self possessed shit!!!! You obviously don't know me and that really sucks!!
That is what is wrong with the internet and texting and every other non-contact sport we have about reading other people's shit!! You never know how to take it, because it is trying to negotiate and equate not a real actual voice and a real actual person!!! It is George Orwell's 1984, and big brother might be watching but you ain't!!!
That is too f'ing bad, but that is who we have become, acceptance is the first rule of realizing some behavior is wrong and we aren't even close to being there. So anyway..............
Let's talk about the journey, let's talk about what motivates certain people and makes other's tune out! The difference between the two, has nothing to do with culture, it has nothing to do with money, it has nothing to do with where you came from, it begins with dreams. I have found so many people in my life, they just don't want to dream and visualize and project a certain image. It is a culture of acceptance now, and that is what made the 60's So great. People started standing up to the generally accepted principles of the past, people spoke there mind and, whether accepted or ostracized still for the most part stuck to their beliefs. Today, what do we have? Let's get ahead, let's make more money!! I don't see a lot of let's change the world people! But we need more people like that. I know I sound like a dyed in the wool Cambridge liberal, but I am not! I welcome open debate, I cherish difference of opinions, but I hate close minded people, who haven't taken the time or the energy to see what is right in front of their face! I am sorry hate is a very strong word, let's say I shake my head at that, because if they had an opinion I could at least respect it. But opinions are waning in this country, moderation is ruling and in any society, especially a great society, that leads to DEATH!! Innovation, breaking rules, forward thinking, competition and the need to succeed is every great cultures traits and I just feel we need a whole lot more of that. Along with controversial thinking, abstract ideas and a general nurturing of a new way! Where is that? Do you see it? I don't, I see a bunch of silver spoon fed, I deserve the good life, and screw everyone else, people! Where in the hell did that come from? Certainly not from my father or his father, who fought in war's and dealt with bread lines, and financial depression just to survive.
I know, the argument is going to be, come on, this is a new world, things are different now. That is complete B.S., I believe in evolution, I believe in revolution if it is for the good of an entire culture, but come on people. Are we close to changing anything? Has anyone in the last 30 years come along with a truly humanitarian cultural changing idea, that has been adopted? Where is the next Einstein? Where is the next Edison, where is the next Lincoln? Do they exist? I certainly hope so, but my guess is, they aren't in America, because we have become fat and happy and settled and well, too comfortable to care.
For christsake's we can't even elect people who are good representatives of us, and many of us don't even care!! You know what most American's say when they are asked if their direct House of representative or Senator cares about them is? NO. That is an awful, indictment of a culture that has lost its way!!!
Hey let the freakin Mexican's in,most of them work harder than we do! Let them get into a system where they become a citizen and contribute to the cause, instead of running across the border in Arizona, onto an INDIAN reservation, isn't that a ridiculous statement, and trying to work for next to nothing!!! What the hell is going on!!
We are a country of immigrants!! We cast out the real Americans back in the 1870's!!! We are all just interloper's, but so culturally diverse it worked for a time. Now, I don't know. I really don't.
As far as my journey is concerned, it has certainly taken many unexpected turns, but I don't worry myself about that because you have to know who you are, before you know what you are! I know exactly who I am and it is not even close to what I thought I would be. But that's
ok, because at least I have my beliefs as right or wrong as they might be.
So it is 1996 now, and I am the president of a multi-million dollar corporation, and it was a heavy load! Not because of the money, not because of the responsibility, it was because I was in charge of 65 lives, and that was the single driving factor, for me. I wanted us to succeed for everyone, not just for me. What an education I was about to have.
I'll be back on that track tomorrow. But for now, go to the end of this blog and buy some really great wine at a really great price! The reason I did this is because they are a start up company, who are really nice guys, with great prices, and I love wine just as much as coffee! So do me a favor and give them a shot, they are just starting out, and that is what America is built on!!! Thanks, Joe

The Espresso Information!!

Hi everyone, I LOVE a good espresso and it always troubled me about the lack of knowledge some people had about coffee and espresso, especially in the U.S., because that's where I am from, I am not sure this is prevalent throughout the world, but there are some things everyone should know about espresso. First off, it doesn't matter what type of roast or beans you use really. It just matters that the coffee is ground to a certain fineness. This causes the massive amount of pressurized extraction you get from brewing it in an espresso machine!! The massive pressure that an espresso machine provides is the key to good espresso, not the beans or the blend, or the roast shade. In fact, some of the most powerful espresso I have ever tasted is from a roast that most people would describe as light roasted coffee!!  You see the way the espresso interacts with the brain is very different. It calls into attention a brain function called Adnosine which releases adrenaline into yo

The Coffee Roasting Process and Its Effects On The Products You Drink!

By Joe Leary/Principal/Lead Source Digital Marketer's & KYC Consulting on LinkedIn Today I would like to explain just how much the roasting process effects the coffee we consume on a daily basis. I sincerely hope you find this article enjoyable, interesting and informative. I am going to attempt to explain the 4 major roasting processes and what it does and doesn't do to the world's second most popularly traded commodity. Before I get started, there is something you need to know about coffee. When coffee is roasted it goes through a process, within that process the beans are altered by temperature and generally gas, LNG, electricity and even wood. During this process the beans reach levels within that process that makes the beans, "crack". Depending on how light or dark they are being roasting they "crack either once or twice. This alters the flavor profile tremendously, so please keep that in mind while reading this article. I have included some

How To Successfully Run A Commodity Based Business#commoditybusiness#freebusinessadvice

How To Successfully Run A Commodity Based Business     I have over 26 years of experience in a commodity based business. As a matter of fact, it wasn't just commodities, it was the number 2 traded commodity on the planet, coffee. Although I will be referring to coffee in this article, this information will translate into any commodity based business. One thing I do want to point out, that perhaps many haven't considered. Almost every business, if not every single business is affected in some way by commodities. Whether it is a meat packer buying boxes(by the way beef is a commodity), or a bakery packaging mini muffins in portion controlled lots. Yes, board to make boxes is a commodity, and many of the packaging materials a manufacturing facility uses is petroleum based. I could go on and on, but I just wanted to point out that understanding commodities and how to manage and minimize your exposure to wild price swings is an extremely important skill. So I'd lik
