FWIW, my podcasting co-host was the guy with the extraordinarily loud bag at Balticon. Oh, yeah, and even though you guys totally GAVE IT to me, apparently i am technically smarter than a podcaster. But i think that's really just because you guys were getting tired. Thanks for the katana, regardless. :D<br><br>i sincerely hope that i can see you and your lovely wife soon-<br><br>Susan ZSusan Zhttp://www.kulturekast.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3715000527290050953.post-12756673027109482352007-08-13T04:08:01.000-07:002007-08-13T04:08:01.000-07:00Evo I was glad to find this site of yours..... sin...Evo <br><br>I was glad to find this site of yours..... since your departure from Slice and Wingin it i found that those two show's are not entertaining. I am not writing this to bag on them but the older show's were allot better, now it's like they have five or more people in th studio ....anyone who drops by the fed-ex guy the mail man. Any -how what happened that you left it seems like it wasn't a friendly break and can what are your future plans in podcasting? Look forward to hearing from you.<br><br>AMrkoMarkonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3715000527290050953.post-88141512616185116092007-08-13T10:10:48.000-07:002007-08-13T10:10:48.000-07:00I am SO bad about this.

I would say just in the past few weeks, a tiny ember of an idea has been forming that maybe its ok to ask for help and maybe its ok if things aren't done EXACTLY the way I need them as long as they get done. I think we take on so much more stress than we need to. I'm always happy to help my friends so why wouldn't they be willing to help me? They are but I just have to learn to ask.laanbahttp://photine.typepad.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3715000527290050953.post-82131325607314563662007-08-13T22:07:27.000-07:002007-08-13T22:07:27.000-07:00I can't even begin to tell you how excited I w...I can't even begin to tell you how excited I was to see someone actually GETS IT!!<br><br>There are so many of us who can't ask for help, do everything all by ourselves, can't delegate because no one else can do it as well and we're headed for burnout or worse!! This is a near-epidemic!<br><br>We've grown up in a culture that says asking for help is a weakness and those of us with trust problems find self-sufficiency a safe place to hide out!<br><br>All this is the subject of my book Help Is Not a Four-Letter Word: Why Doing It All Is Doing You In published by McGraw Hill. <br><br>You're a great inspiration and it's a wonderful, valuable article!!<br>Peggy Collins<br>www.helpisnotafourletterword.comPeggy Collinsnoreply@blogger.com
