I’m so broke I can’t even pay attention Jimi Hendrix, “Taking Care of No Business” I don’t know whether I like this quote more because it’s funny, or maybe I love it so much because I believe it’s so profound. Everyone can decide for themselves what they choose to pay attention to. Generally speaking, you… Continue reading Who’s on Top?

What’s X?
Universal Declaration of Human Rights, Article 19: “Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any media and regardless of frontiers.” Source: Quoted by Adam Curry on “No Agenda” Show [Episode 1601, 32:20 https://www.noagendashow.net/listen/1601/shownotes… Continue reading What’s X?
Be the Change
When Jim Morrison sang “I’m a change-ling, see me change” … who knows what he was thinking about? As we may think, he might have been alluding to the Godfather of modern views about change: Non-Nobel Peace Prize winner Gandhi, who apparently advised us all to “be the change you want to see in the… Continue reading Be the Change
A Quick Note About Lifestyles
I was at an all-day event this past Saturday, it was mainly about health issues. I have two quick key takeaways. First: Health and medicine are (of course) big business. Second: The keynote speaker argued vehemently how the healthcare (and pharmaceutical) industries revolve around keeping sick people alive, rather than improving the quality of life… Continue reading A Quick Note About Lifestyles
If Google is the Pope of the Internet, Then Who Are You & I?
I’m sorry that this week’s installment is a little bit later than usual, but I have been experiencing some technical difficulties. As far as I know, these technical difficulties have to do with censorship … insofar as someone or something seems to be trying to censor me. Yet I refuse to relinquish — much like… Continue reading If Google is the Pope of the Internet, Then Who Are You & I?
Who is Free to Choose?
I distinctly remember my father telling me to watch TV once — or rather: strongly recommending me to sit down and watch it together with him (and whoever else in the family happened to be around). It was a very special event: PBS was doing a series with Milton Friedman, called “Free to Choose“. We… Continue reading Who is Free to Choose?
Please Don’t Make Me Think
Thinking is hard. It’s much easier to just let someone tell you a story and when you hear the same old story over and over again, then it will probably begin to ring true. This is neither a new insight nor is it rocket science — it’s something a scientist from a long time ago… Continue reading Please Don’t Make Me Think
How to Explain Ignorance
First thing I want to avoid is mansplaining something: Apart from that, addressing the issue of ignorance has many issues, problems and stuff like that. Awareness of ignorance is probably no easier than becoming conscious of what we have managed to repress into an “unconscious” state. Yet I wish to completely sidestep all such matters… Continue reading How to Explain Ignorance
Quick update while slowly drifting out into the zone
I’m living and loving heading out into the zone. That said, I also want to keep y’all updated on my life, vital signs, all that jazz and so on. One of the updates I need to share with y’all is that Socio.BIZ is now a supporting member of the Social Skills Network (@ social-skills.net 😉… Continue reading Quick update while slowly drifting out into the zone
