With over 36 streets named “PeachTree” and a waffle house on every 3 blocks of those, it’s easy to get lost in Atlanta. I’m glad I have my GPS, of course, but sometimes it’s nice to just “Get lost.” I found this Waffle House out of convenience… it’s across the street from Skizzy’s […]

Published by February 22nd, 2008 in announcements, business and summary. 0 CommentsRobert Stickgold and his colleagues at Harvard Medical School in 1994 actually proved that the Tetris Effect exists. You can read about it in Scientific American. The term can be seen in Wikipedia as well. What Stickgold and associates proved was a new understanding of what dreams are…. that the brain […]
I may have done something bad. What to do??
Published by February 21st, 2008 in business, design, opinion and rant. 9 CommentsI mention Independent Lady Magazine a little too frequently lately. Last night, (I still haven’t slept… though not just because of this) in the middle of the night, I decided that I’d set up a MySpace page for Independent Lady Magazine and then I went and designed a few mock covers… no false […]
You can make money with google ads?
Published by February 19th, 2008 in Information, announcements and business. 2 CommentsSo, I mentioned that I’m actually stationary for a tiny bit. One of the people I saw lecture while on the road was Joel Comm. This guy practically invented the internet (he DID invent what is now “Yahoo Games”), and is a god-like figure for people who believe in Google AdSense. What is it, and […]
My NEW adventure!
Published by February 19th, 2008 in adventure, announcements and business. 1 CommentWhere in the world is Couch Surfing Ori? That’s what the text message often says. Joe of Couch 56 sends it every month, sometimes more frequently. His wife recently took to Couch Surfing, and was even my 1st guest at my new place. So… based on the fact that you know my definition of adventure […]
Independent Lady Magazine - a case study in marketing and education
Published by February 6th, 2008 in Information, business and rant. 0 CommentsI’ve couch surfed for over a year now… and the whole time I was doing it, and even now, I kept educating myself. Audio books, books, online courses, forums, seminars with the best in the world, and conversations with the same. Most my education on this trip was about business and marketing. […]
Independent Lady Magazine
Published by February 5th, 2008 in Information, business, design, humor, opinion and rant. 2 CommentsIndependent lady magazine is the name of a project I was going to take on. I’ll tell you about it, since you know I hate having my time wasted, and this is a wonderful story of time wasting. Angela was looking for projects for me, and found someone on CraigsList.org that needed a magazine […]
CouchSurfingOri - influencing young minds!
Published by November 3rd, 2007 in Information, Press, business, events and photography. 1 CommentWhen I started this trip, one of my intentions was to speak to school children about adventures, about living your dreams, about photography, and of course about making sure you question authority! I have to admit that I’ve been sort of slacking in that department (pursuing the presentations), but as you all know, I got […]
Rock Climbing near Chimney Rock with Couch 58
Published by October 17th, 2007 in adventure, business, photography and travel. 0 CommentsThe drive was not too long- 40 minutes to 70 minutes- to the Chimney Rock area. Again, gorgeous trees and mountains all the way. It ’s not just the scenery that one notices, but also the architecture. There are many old buildings, small communities, old cars, bridges, lakes, ponds, barns… It definitely looks different than […]
Meet up with Miah, a fellow couch surfer
Published by October 16th, 2007 in business and travel. 0 CommentsOnwards! I was in a hurry- that’s why I left South Florida when I did. I needed to get to Maryland by the 18th, to meet Angela for her friend(couch 45)’s birthday. So, I stopped off at Couch 37 and hung out with the Ground Industries guys. They’re a blast to be around. They wanted […]
