OK, so this isn’t really officially a blog post… it’s more like a link. And it’s a link to somebody else’s blog post… my wife’s. I could not pass this up! This is the BEST story!!! You absolutely must see this… http://victoriasilva.com/giving/ Victoria, thank you for all that you do – I love you!
This is one of my favorite stories that I’ve come across recently! Secret Snow Wiper Will Strike Again! Kinda reminds me of that famous guy that gives away money, the Secret Dollar Man… Have fun! Todd
I recently went to a conference where one of the events was a get together in a really nice hotel. It was a beautiful place! If you read my posts, you may know by now that I’ve started taking piano lessons. I am a music nut, and I’m having more fun than ever learning a [...]
One of my most favorite places to hide a dollar is in the ice cream store. I’ll walk in, and before settling down to place my order, I’ll walk over to one of the napkin dispensers and slip a dollar into one of the napkins, pushing it down so that it’s out of view… So [...]
(This is a different kind of post for this blog… more about “knead”-ing… than giving…) Please join me in remembering a great icon of the entertainment community. The Pillsbury Doughboy died yesterday of a yeast infection and trauma complications from repeated pokes in the belly. He was 71. Doughboy was buried in a lightly greased [...]
There was some work being done on the outside of my office building recently, so there was a scaffold set up right outside the building entryway. Well… you know the Secret Dollar Man… he can never resist anything so tempting as this… But here’s the fun part… EVERYONE in our building goes out that door, [...]
I was at the airport, getting ready to depart, and just got the news that our flight, and several others, were being delayed by two hours. Ugghhhh… Flying… OK, so the tensions were starting to run a little high with everyone. And I was getting irritated because it meant that I would get to my [...]
Two of the biggest worries common to all people (or at least those of a western influence) are… Time… And money. Many folks complain that they never have enough of either. So let’s play a game. Imagine for just a moment that you had all the money that you ever needed. Said another way, that [...]
So there I was, walking into the veterinarian to restock on heartworm pills for our German Shepherd, Licorice. I had my dollar in hand… Since there were quite a few folks in the lobby, I was a little more nervous than usual, and carefully looking around to make sure nobody would see the Secret Dollar [...]
I’m 52 years old. By some standards, that’s approaching old fart status… I’ve been playing the guitar for 40 years, been singing for about 15 of ‘em. I absolutely love music, playing it, writing it, composing it, producing it. Music is in my blood. And I’ve recently made a real stretch with music… I’ve started [...]
For a semi old timer like me, the whole experience of the internet sometimes feels like it’s moving at a pace that is faster than I can keep up with. Too many friend invites, Twitter tweets, blogs to read, how can I manage all of this? But the bigger question is this – am I [...]
I had lunch with Dr. Rick Barrett earlier this week. We first met almost 15 years ago at a music venue where I was performing, and didn’t talk again until a few weeks ago when Rick was a guest, along with Dr. Joe Vitale, on the Give Away A Dollar A Day Show. But this [...]
We had just finished eating at our favorite Greek restaurant in the Montrose area of Houston, and I needed to hit the restroom on the way out. I hadn’t given away my dollar yet for the day, so I thought I would leave it somewhere in the restroom. Just as I was ready to do [...]
