Random Thoughts…
reflections from a donut shop
Posted by Z on 13th October 2009
As I worked from a donut shop this morning I found it interesting how many things that happened in the shop related to my life – examples:
* people’s decision making process (see Predictiably Irrational and Diamond’s behavioral economics research/focus) – re: donut selection process
* how important trustworthy long time friends are – four old guys showed up and I could tell they had a very strong friendship and truly enjoyed each other’s company
* entrepreneurship, relationships, and mutually beneficial outcomes – the lady who owned the donut store survived multiple onslaughts from nearby startup coffee shops… all of which went out of business. She has a strong following at this shop – her customers enjoy her company (and donuts of course) and she knows most of them by name. D. Maister’s perspectives come to mind…

A view of Pot Belly chips just after opening them – this would have the old Wendy’s lady saying “Where’s the chips!?”

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (2007) – B
Posted by Z on 5th October 2007
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (2007) gets a B from me. The movie was entertaining but often used deus ex machina a bit too much. Very cool special effects and very enjoyable from an imagination stand point (e.g. the elevator phone booth, etc.). Acting was so so.
