For those science fiction buffs out there… the 2nd half of both the Stargate SG1 season and the Stargate Atlantis seasons began this past Friday night!
If you haven’t seen the official stargate web site… surf on over!
We’ve been glued to them every year!

Karen’s Sports P.R. Class has done some very cool things… one was attending the Los Angeles Lakers Game beating the Seattle Super Sonics!
Here is Karen at the media Press Center… looking very official.
What a great experience.

It’s alway nice to be on a successful diet… I’ve been on millions of them over the years. However, the biggest challenge with most diets is that you run out of will power after such a short time. Jenny Craig has been great since I have a couple of great ways to fill up… an enormous salad with lunch and a lot of veggies at night. Top this off with a real dessert and it works.
My dietary plan is simple… I eat the same thing virtually every day. Cereal with fruit for breakfast, salad and turkey burger at lunch, veggies and meatloaf for dinner and chocolate cake for dessert. Oh, there are a few thnigs we’re allowed during the day… like sugarless jello and yogurt… so I never go hungry.
The ‘maintainence’ plan sounds good… so it seems like somethnig I can live with…. but that is still a ways off.

My daughter competed for the University of Florida earning a Bachelors in Public relations, before (happily for me) she finished her last year of eligibility as a graduate student at the University of Southern California as a Trojan… however, it seems very interesting to me that she is now going to one of Florida’s arch rivals as a doctoral student in Communications. Karen has good memories of Tennessee as this was the place where she won her first SEC Championship.
In business, we used to call this varied experience ‘cross polination’… learning skills from different businesses and industries and applying them to your world. A friend once told 
me… ‘what might seem trite and cliché’ in one industry when applied to another may be considered innovative!’ He was right. So, I can really see the beauty in attending a variety of universities and communities, learning from each and building a wealth of positive experience.
Karen has a little more time at ‘SC before she finally completes her two year degree and receives her masters later this summer… that is, after her Public Relations internship in South Africa for a couple of months.
What do I personally remember about Tennessee? Well, they beat us in 1974 for the NCAA Championship… I was captain of the other guys. My experience with their athletes was a good one and we traded school t-shirts… I think you’ll be alright.
Although I know that Karen will love Tennessee, and she has said nothing but great things about them… please forgive me, Karen… but you will always be a Trojan to me!
Fight on!

Now, Katie Couric is NOT one of my favorite people… not much I like about her. So, I am not going to pile on too hard over her latest boo-boo.
Allegedly, she may have plagiarized something from the Wall Street Journal. Compare the link to the WSJ Columnist with the story from MSNBC.
Time to sign off, Katie… everyone else has already turned you off.
