Hey gang, Here in Indianapolis we are down to the last three days of having a sunset occur past Cody's 10 and under bedtime and occasionally my self imposed 40 and under bedtime - 8 PM. How will you be using these final 3 days of late evening sunshine? Me, [...]

Hey gang,  Have you ever had a brilliant idea for something that you are positive will be awesome - an idea you're sure that no one has ever thought of making or providing as a service?  But then you go online and instantly find out with a quick search that not [...]

Hey gang,  I figured out a catchy subject line but I have no idea how I am going to connect three disparate topics, so I'm just going to write 9 random thoughts that if I was lucky, may have received a like or two on Twitter (if I used Twitter). 1)  Watching the [...]

Hey gang, I'm already regretting my subject line - what the heck is T-Day?  It looks like I simply misspelled 'today' or am just too extraordinarily lazy (guilty) to type out the name of the annual federal holiday typically celebrated by eating the other, other white meat. And thinking of that, how [...]

Hey gang, 7 years ago (and a day) I announced I was going to spend all of my time trying to make Sharp Guys' a full time gig.  At the time, my family helped me announce with this picture (aww).   I think partially due to the awesome might of that [...]

Hey gang, It seems like yesterday since I last sat down and wrote one of these expansive random emails to the nearly 500 of you that receive it but it wasn't, it was 8 months ago.  8 months of pent up dumb words are flowing through my head so bear [...]

Hey gang, Have you ever needed to go out to your car and grab something really quick – maybe you forgot your wallet or headphones or sunglasses?  No point in grabbing my keys, you think (rather smugly), I always leave the car unlocked.  With a knowing pull of the handle [...]

Hey gang, Last week I read music titan and Presidential hopeful, Kanye West, had made a speech that some (all) found offensive where he railed against beloved Underground Railroad heroine, Harriet Tubman. The next morning I woke up in a cold sweat with the thought that though Ye's never heard of me and may not [...]

Hey gang, I gave the newsletter the summer off for good behavior but now it's back, a little rusty but as bad as ever. First off, have I got a story for you (literally) - a little while back I accidentally wrote a children’s story.  Accidentally you ask? Yes.  My subconscious [...]

Hey gang, People that have read these emails in the past know that I use an outlandish number of ()s within my writing.   Often times I use these ()s as asides or for the sake of sarcasm.  My friends that know me best may say that's because even when [...]

Hey gang, So over the past few months I bought a black desk - well, now that I think of it, I have to go a little further back.  In 2017, the fam and I went all in on buying a new house.  By all in, I mean we went [...]

Hey gang,At Sharp Guys we have a number of repositories with stock photos we can use for clients. I wouldn't say I'm a stock photo connoisseur (well I would, but only in private as I'm too humble to brag about my Stock Photo Expert Certificate).  Sometimes I'll come upon stock [...]
