Back to Business

Feb 27th, 2008 by Chris | 1

So what does LGM do? Well, that’s a good question. Here’s a small snapshot of the last few days.
First, our good friends over at Indian Creek Winery invited us over for a barrel tasting of a few of their upcoming releases. I am trying to recollect my mental tasting notes . . .
If I […]

We’ve been in Germany 100 years?

Feb 15th, 2008 by Chris | 0

I am still confused. So a couple weeks ago John McCain said that we could be in Iraq for 100 years. Look it up - it’s all over the Internets. Anyway - now he is out there clarifying his statement by saying, roughly, “yeah - we’ll be in Iraq for 100 years like we are […]

Big fun with Google Alerts

Feb 14th, 2008 by Chris | 0

Ok so its not BIG fun, but Google Alerts, not only useful, can be pretty amusing. We use Google Alerts to get notified whenever Pronetos, our competitors, or industry leaders are mentioned in the press. It’s just one more way to keep abreast of the business landscape out there. But there are also some fun […]

Big Victory for Pronetos

Feb 13th, 2008 by Chris | 0

Granted, most people don’t follow the intracacies of what is going on with the academic publishing market, but this thing called the Internets really seems to be gaining traction among academics. And why wouldn’t it? I mean the Wurl Wide Web itself was invented so that scholars could more easily share their scholarship online. They […]

I wanna be a rock star

Feb 11th, 2008 by Chris | 0

Yeah, just like the guys in Nickleback, I wanna be a rock star, but I guess I’ll have to settle for being a big radio star. Our local NPR station finally started running the story about the murals, where I am interviewed as the historical expert. This is the second such NPR story I have […]

Who Pronetos Users Voted For on Super Tuesday

Feb 7th, 2008 by Chris | 0

If you have been paying any attention to the media, you’ve heard how Obama got the African-American vote, and Hillary got the Hispanic vote. We’ve heard all about race, and gender, and a little about class. But what I heard about class on NPR, was that Obama apparently got the rich, white vote. That’s not […]

Realtors to U.S.: Don’t worry. Everything is ok.

Feb 6th, 2008 by Chris | 0

Man I swear you can’t get on the local websites - either the Statesman or the Idaho Business Review without hearing some realtor or developer tell us - “Ah heck, housing is coming back. Don’t worry about it. All these rate cuts, people will be snapping up the cheap money to buy everything in sight.”
Uh […]

So much to talk about

Feb 4th, 2008 by Chris | 3

So . . . if you saw the Day After Tomorrow it is clear what is happening out there - I mean all the snow in Idaho, Israel, etc. Yeah, we’ve been buried in it, even here in the big City. Never the less, Barak Obama managed to get here to campaign. And though half […]

More Enron School of Business . . .

Feb 1st, 2008 by Chris | 2

So in a previous post, I wondered why B of A, who lost billions in the mortgage market, would want to buy CountryWide, who lost billions in the mortgage market.
Today, we have Microsoft, who never has understood “the Internets,” proposing to buy Yahoo!, who consistently gets its collective a** handed back to it, by Google.
So […]
