How many times had she rescued it? She'd lost
count. It seemed that every year since she'd gotten it, it had dwindled
down to nothing and she'd had to give it a serious haircut to get it
going again. It would, almost overnight, grow lush and full only to
start dwindling and drooping again with no warning. How often she had
looked at it, remembering, or drawing comfort from its upright eager
vines that never seemed to quit. Poor Charlie, she thought. How many
more times can I hack away at you like this and expect you to live?
He seemed to bring back his
memories in full color HD detail in my mind. A lot of those stories are
fleeting at best, I am sure he added in his own little exaggerated
touches but back then it didn't matter. That is what Deer Camp stories
did for me in D&DH magazine in the off season too. My Dad used to call
my grandfather a bullshitter and never fully understood that till after
growing up and experiencing life for myself. I think this life needs
bullshitters to carry on that tradition of deer hunting we have all come
to love.
For
firms who rely on billable hours, marketing often takes a backseat. Make
that change. Retreats are a perfect time to create and set clear
expectations for attorneys and partners for non-billable time devoted to
marketing and business development. And don't forget to reward the
performers!

Technology has solved the time problem. From your home you can
find a dealer, a car, fill out the paper work and haggle over the price.
All you have to do is punch a few keys on your computer. Skip:
"See? That is all you needed." Skip has small glasses on, like Ben
Franklin, as he speaks he looks over the top of his glasses at Amery. He
notices Amery is more settled, and therefore, allows himself to lean
back more into his seat.
Linda moved to Florida and got a job as a,
school teacher, here in the area. She wanted to buy a house so that the
kids could have a home. Lo and behold! She gets a notice that Ford Motor
Credit is suing her for the deficiency balance on the
buy truck and trailer that they repossessed from
Outdoor Bob. The deficiency was over $5,500.00 Even though the Judge
instructed Bob to make the payments, he didn't. The judge never thought
to check with Ford Motor Credit to see if they would accept Outdoor Bob
as the new guarantor on the loan. They of course wouldn't have done it
anyway. After all, Bob's credit was terrible. Now, let's look at an example of how to negotiate a deal, any time.
Let's pretend (or maybe not) that you're one of the estimated five per
cent who are unemployed in the United States. You've done your homework;
written up a killer resume, and now you have some interviews lined
up. When driving at high speeds, make sure that your windows are
closed to avoid aerodynamic drag. At low speeds, you can put off the AC
system and open the windows instead to save fuel. Likewise, it is
important to check that all AC system parts especially the Ford AC
condenser is at perfect working condition. Remember: be
prepared, have an agenda and keep focused on the discussion at hand.
Involve everyone from partners to associates to staff and keep an open
mind to marketing ideas, plans and needs. But most of all... make it a
true priority to institute those strategies when the retreat
ends.
