Can we blame it on the educational system or FaceBook? One of the frustrating things about trying to do business in a digital world is that the more technology does for us, the less people want to do for themselves.

AFTER having missed the entire Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale event, I have to admit that the whole thing pisses me off. We used to be able to watch hours of coverage on television. Seems that no network was willing to pony up the cash to cover the show- BUT, we can live-stream it on our computers or… Read more »
