It isn’t your typical boring management advice book.
Movie of the Week
This film was made for me when I retired in December 2009 or 16 years ago. It has been an exciting 16 years. I still treasure the time I spent with my work friends, many of whom I still see, my wife who has stuck it out with me for many decades and I always remember my cat Smarty.

QUOTE FOR THE WEEK
There is never enough time to do or say all the things that we would wish. The thing is to try to do as much as you can in the time that you have. Remember Scrooge, time is short, and suddenly, you’re not here any more.

While some send out family portraits as their holiday cards, photographer Ed Wheeler has been dressing up as Santa Claus for years and posing in hilarious compositions for his cards. It was in 2011, though, when the festive photographer decided to take his work a step further and incorporate jolly ol’ Saint Nick into classical masterpieces, such as the painting below by C.M.

EXTRAORDINARY PEOPLE
Santa Claus
Santa delivering gifts to children
Santa Claus has been believed to make a list of children throughout the world, categorizing them according to their behavior (“naughty” or “nice”) and to deliver presents, including toys, and candy to all of the well-behaved children in the world, and sometimes coal to the naughty children, on the single night of Christmas Eve. He accomplishes this feat with the aid of the elves who make the toys in the workshop and the flying reindeer who pull his sleigh.[5][6] He is commonly portrayed as living at the North Pole and saying “ho ho ho” often.(Source: Wikipedia)
