Man, the problem with shooting video first thing in the morning is the puffy eyes. Hate that!
The article I was referring to in the video above is from a Brains on Fire blog post and you can find the article here. It makes the point that human connections are becoming fewer and fewer as we connect via electronic means (mobile phone, IM, video, computer, spocial (correction: social) networks, etc).
I would concur with the Brains on Fire post that we need to take the extra effort to shake hands, rub elbows with our friends and break bread around a table with friends and family (just as long as you have a tablecloth and napkins from United Linen on your table :-) JK
I want your comments. We need your comments. If you like this post, please share it with your friends and family and the jerk in the cubicle next to you.
Make a connection,
Scott and the amazing United Linen Team

The only other thing this moment I feel definite about is that the stories we tell ourselves and share with ourselves are changing, radically. I'vesafd been hesitant to dive in publicly, because sometimes - well, ofttimes, pioneers are ignored. Their travels can easily become travails.

That cracks me up. I hadn't thought about it, but I guess we do have few doors and hallways, don't we?
Thanks for the comment. I appreciate it very much. Tell all your friends to stop by. :)

Nice job Scott. Just when I was thinking, "Man, do you work in the Pentagon building?" (what a maze!), it occurred to me that I have no one to hug but the cat. Home. Office.
Cheers! - Lara
