POLICE STOP PROTOCOL FOR BOOMERS

September 29, 2016 by David Gillaspie

Driving 80 in a 55 means behave yourself. A police stop protocol when you’re pulled over in the middle of nowhere for speeding goes like this: From the beginning: – This car has a little growl when you punch it. You ever punch it? = No, I’m not a race car driver and neither are […]

MUSEUM BINGE TOUR, pt 1, Ginevra de’ Benci

September 24, 2016 by David Gillaspie

Lots of museums and little time? Take a Museum Binge Tour. The museum binge tour saying goes like this: “Everything on every wall isn’t worthy of the same scrutiny, so move on, rookie.” If you’re one of those, a museum binge tour runner, or act like one, you’ll need to do some explaining. Tell the […]

CAN HUGE LAND OWNERS LEARN POLYFACE FARM?

September 21, 2016 by David Gillaspie

If acquisition saves land, why not Polyface Farm it for improvement? These are the biggest land owners in America. Millions of acres for billionaires getting into land conservation, ranching, and farming. The farming part and ranching part remind me of Polyface Farms. Could land owners partner with Joel Salatin to turn farming and ranching into […]

INFLUENCER MARKETING FOOD PRODUCTION

September 13, 2016 by David Gillaspie

When an idea takes off with Influencer Marketing, it flies high. How many times do you see an ‘Organic’ label at the grocery store. How about ‘Natural?’ It’s all over television commercials, but what’s it mean? Is ‘organic’ a case of influencer marketing, or just a passing fad? Who’s the influencer? The question resonates with […]

NO OTHER PORTLAND BUT FRESH HOPPED PORTLAND

September 7, 2016 by David Gillaspie

No city can be the Portland of the north, east, south, or west due to one basic truth. And it’s so obviously Portland. No place on earth is closer to the most valuable ingredient in beer. Hops grow down the road from a city with over 142 breweries in the metro area that pour 53 […]

THE CARE AGE SANDWICH GENERATION

August 4, 2016 by David Gillaspie

If elderly people depend on you, you’re in the Care Age. Ages come in different names defined by the dominant materials like the Stone Age, Bronze Age, Iron Age. Epochs and eras all have names. If you find artifacts made in America before the explorers got here, they’re called Pre-contact, as if everything after early […]
