Enjoy. Susan, Yesterday I received a wonderful business opportunity. Seems for the new year the Get Motivated Seminars, Inc wants to jump start businesses in Texas, specifically Houston. What a windfall for those businesses! Their brochure is offering a special! For a limited time only, you understand, Houston area small businesses can purchase a $225.00 ticket to the seminar for only $4.95 (yep, that's .05 less than $5.) or send their whole office for $19.00! WOW! What a deal....until you see the list of speakers. Now we all have to admit it would be powerful to hear Gen. Colin Powell, Zig Ziglar, and the ever entertaining Terry Bradshaw. Heck, I'd pay $5 to see Gen. Powell discuss "Take Charge Leadership." Mr. Zigler will of course expound on how to stay motivated (so his books keep selling) and Mr. Terry Bradshaw, god love him, will tell us ??? how to property fold a toupee into your back pocket and lose endorsements. Now those folks might be worth the $4.95 + parking at the Toyota Center BUT !!!!!! They are gonna have to hand out cash at the door to get folks to come watch OR listen to Rick Belluzzo; "Lead and Succeed" A guy who is listed in Wikipedia: "As of 2009, Belluzo is working as a speaker on a traveling circuit that books/sells low-cost speaking events in auditoriums, civic centers, etc " His business experience is listed in part as, "Much of his career is clouded in controversy and many consider him to be responsible for the demise of SGI." Then there is Tamara Lowe, a woman according to her book title, with Motivational DNA. Wow, wonder if the FBI knows about this. Is it a subcategory in their DNA screening process? Bet it is in Texas! By the way, she and her hubby own the seminar company, guess she can be what ever she wants to be, huh? The last two speakers offered up will be your personal fav's: Rudy Giuliani on "The Tenacity to Persevere: How to make it through a crisis" (Moving your mistress into Gracie Mansion?) And last but not least.....Ms. Sarah Palin on "Achieving Your Personal & Professional Goals" Can't even begin to comment on that...bet you can! The website is here.

I started reading it because I was fascinated by the name Kiss My Big Blue Butt and stayed because this Texas lady is kind of Molly Ivins-ish and I’ve become very fond of her. Enjoy.

Susan,

Yesterday I received a wonderful business opportunity. Seems for the new year the Get Motivated Seminars, Inc wants to jump start businesses in Texas, specifically Houston. What a windfall for those businesses!

Their brochure is offering a special! For a limited time only, you understand, Houston area small businesses can purchase a $225.00 ticket to the seminar for only $4.95 (yep, that’s .05 less than $5.) or send their whole office for $19.00! WOW! What a deal….until you see the
list of speakers.

Now we all have to admit it would be powerful to hear Gen. Colin Powell, Zig Ziglar, and the ever entertaining Terry Bradshaw. Heck, I’d pay $5 to see Gen. Powell discuss “Take Charge Leadership.” Mr. Zigler will of course expound on how to stay motivated (so his books keep selling) and Mr. Terry Bradshaw, god love him, will tell us ??? how to property fold a toupee into your back pocket and lose endorsements. Now those folks might be worth the $4.95 + parking at the Toyota Center BUT !!!!!!

A better title for her talk would be: "How To Be A Scapegrace Under Fire" Look it up, Sarah. I think it's what you really meant. “Grace” and Sarah Palin are two parallel trajectories which have never and will never intersect….

Look it up, Sarah. I think it’s what you really meant.

The seminar was good, a little over the top as well. We did sign up to go to the seminars in Anchorage that followed. PLEASE BE VERY VERY CAUTIOUS. We signed up for the tax lien study and now they are in Bankruptcy. One member of our group returned the materials in the timeframe they gave to us at the seminar. We have been trying to get a refund of $1495 for three months only now they have told us they cannot refund the money because they are in bankruptcy. Be very very cautious about these seminars. I am not saying all of these are scams but be careful. From persistenceunlimited.com

This organization is an gotcha kind of a organization. The $19.00 is just a come on. Once inside is where the selling goes on. People end up spend hundreds of dollars. LOL, true enough there is a sucker born everyday. By the way both parties participate in the activity. Really sad people go to really get something out of it. All they get is nothing. This is a hoot.
