Harmony

Call it genetic
but I love Celtic music.

This weekend caught a glimpse of a young sister quartet called Give Way. You don't have to be a fan of the fiddle to appreciate these amazing sisters. They're simply awe-inspiring.

Discovering new music is like learning a new language.
It may seem foreign at first, but once you get down to it
You wonder how you went with out it so long.

Check out their music when you get a chance.

You won't be disappointed.

A recent Tesla Motors - Hyatt Hotels partnership really irks me.

Tesla maybe chasing high-market now,
but it's ultimatum is mass change.

The lack of electric car charging infrastructure is a lie built an anti-consumer model of what a "refueling station" needs to be. We already know most gas stations stay alive by gouging us on Slim Jims, not Ultra 94.

So rather than putting in three custom-fab Tesla charging stations in a global network of 753 Hyatt hotels... why not consider how to make just 1% of the 120,000,000 homes in America the new "gas station mini-merchants?"

How hard is it to run a publicly-acessible electric outlet to your mailbox? Toss in a gov subsidized RFID payment system. Kick back 1% to the homeowner. Imagine.

Given Tesla's high-profile financiers (PayPal co-founder Elon Musk, Google co-founders Brin and Page, and former eBay Pres Jeff Skoll) I find it hard to believe the democratization of electric car charging has not already come up.

C'mon guys, the missing link, the recharging network is already here.

If you can't charge 4 wheels off the same 240V uberplug that sucks 75lbs of water out of my laundry in 60 minutes then perhaps you're in the wrong business sector.

It's not about brand synergy.
It's about brand mission.

everyone in the world should ride a motorcycle
just once
or more

a motorcycle has something a car can never
a feeling of perpetual risk
of complete exposure.

no steel frames
no windshield
no safety belt

just you
and speed
