Some people find it hard to believe that I have never eaten a McDonald’s hamburger. My accomplishment could probably be recorded in Ripley’s Believe It Or Not.

My “Yellow Brain” still believes in the old fashion “Emily Post” etiquette of writing  “Thank You” notes. Before, I was married my mother ordered a copper embossing plate designed with my SNA monogram. It was used to personalize the fine Crane stationery note cards that we purchased at Marshal Field’s to acknowledge birthday, Bat Mitzvah, Chanukah…

I enjoyed Daniel Pink’s book, A Whole New Mind: Why Right Brainers Will Rule the Future. Especially, since it focused utilizing all our “Brain Color ” attributes and abilities. It also acknowledged and encouraged the “Blue and Orange Brain Creative Thinkers”. His new book, Drive: The Surprising Truth About What Motivates Us, just arrived and…
