Curious Mind: February 2009
http://curiousmind-macnoland.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
Monday, February 09, 2009. What are the three phases of a new project? February 2009 - I'm of the belief there are three phases of a new project - Vanity, Humbleness, and Crisis. Let me explain. Often during the Vanity phase, new amenities like "free food" or "free pop" are offered as tokens. Off-sites are common. They make the layperson feel important. Moreover, closeness is important during this phase. It's thought that cramming more people into meetings is a benefit. Making people ...At this point, ev...

Curious Mind: September 2012
http://curiousmind-macnoland.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html
Friday, September 14, 2012. What the government is trying to say is, if needed, we will get the care we need - whether we can pay for it or not. And to ensure the costs are fairly distributed across all parties, let's make sure we're all contributing. To me, this is fair. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.

Curious Mind: How did we get in this financial disaster?
http://curiousmind-macnoland.blogspot.com/2008/10/how-did-we-get-in-this-financial.html
Thursday, October 02, 2008. How did we get in this financial disaster? I thought it would be good this month to take a look and try to explain, in simple terms, how we got in this mess. I won't try to explain it all as to be honest, I don't really understand all of it. However, I think I understand the basics. Here it goes. This creates a situation where the bank needs $95 in payments for an asset that is worth $90. To complicate matters, both Person A and Person B lose their jobs and are unable to p...

Monday, September 01, 2008. Should I drop Frontier all together? September 2008 - Below is a complaint letter I sent to Frontier's Management in regards to a recent sales experience I had with them. What do you think I should have done? Left well enough alone and stuck with digital service? Called to revert my services? Cancel Frontier all together and go with Charter phone? If you'd like to talk in person about my complaint I'm more than willing. You can use this email address or look my number up a...

Curious Mind: July 2008

Wednesday, July 30, 2008. Should I use Windows Movie Maker? August 2008 - My wife rarely reads this blog so I’m not concerned about her finding out. However, if you do run into her, try to keep this our little secret. We have our five year wedding anniversary coming up in about a week. I've never considered myself a great gift buyer (she took back the mother's day gift I gave her and last year's Christmas gifts) so I decided to dust off my creative energy and make something. Things started off well. ...

Curious Mind: January 2009
http://curiousmind-macnoland.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
Thursday, January 01, 2009. Should we have bailed out the U.S. car companies? January 2009 - My stance on the government bailing out companies is simple. If the company is failing because their products or business practices are inferior, let creative destruction destroy them. However, if the company is at an unfair disadvantage due to government policy, then it's the government's job to ensure said company is compensated. Here is an example to help explain. Ben Frankin's and Pamida were run out of town ...

Curious Mind: May 2008
http://curiousmind-macnoland.blogspot.com/2008_05_01_archive.html
Friday, May 02, 2008. Why are my international investments doing so well? May 2008 - Do you ever wonder why, lately, your foreign investments seem to grow at 20-30% while your domestic ones grow closer to 10%? For example my American European Pacific Growth Fund has an annualized three year return of almost 20%. On the contrary, my Growth Fund of America fund has a three year annualized return of 12.47%. Are the international companies that much better than American ones? No So what is happening? I argue...

Mac's Thoughts: 2011 West Blue Golf League - Results
http://macnoland.blogspot.com/2012/09/2011-west-blue-golf-league-results.html
Friday, September 14, 2012. 2011 West Blue Golf League - Results. Here are the results from the 2011 West Blue Golf League. 1st - Kraft Dinner. 3rd - Bushwoods (over a crumbling Double Eagles). Consolation = Swing Doctors (over Golf Gods in a squeaker). The tournament weather was a bit chilly and wet if I remember. Not nearly wet enough though to prevent Trzynka from nearly killing former Thomson Reuters employee Mike Grey with a long draw down the left hand fairway (road). Impressive aim. View my comple...

Mac's Thoughts: Thoughts on Coach Kill
http://macnoland.blogspot.com/2010/12/thoughts-on-coach-kill.html
Tuesday, December 07, 2010. Thoughts on Coach Kill. When Coach Jerry Kill was announced as Gopher Football coach, I, like many alumni and season ticket holders said "who? Top on my list was Marc Trestman and Mike Leach. Both would have brought national attention to the program and given us the prominence we need. I'm taking a big gamble here by saying this, but I'm betting Coach Kill is here for the next 20 years. Posted by Mac Noland. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.
