The Naked Cowboy

My day job, well my night job too is a public relations person. And when I found out last month that I was going to Book Expo America in New York, one of the things I wanted to see was The Naked Cowboy.

The is a marketing guru, and he makes a ton of money branding himself. You can see him on t.v., I saw him on Christina's Court, on billboards, etc. He has a comic book, ceramics, protein drinks, and he can even perform marriages. So, on the last day I was in New York guess who I ran into at Times Square. Yes, The Naked Cowboy.

I first posted this on my Face Book page and started getting a lot of feedback from it.

Below is a link to a story about him. Just a warning that it is PG13, but it is an amazing story and how he branded himself. We can all learn from him.

And if you are confused, I am the one on the right!

Been in New York

I have been in New York last week, and did not have an internet connection at my hotel. WHAT. Every hotel these days has internet. So on the third day, I called to the lobby and asked how much the internet was. They told me $11.95 a day. I gave in and ordered it. And I tried to get on, and it wouldn't let me on. So I called back down 25 floors and was transferred three times. When I talked to the third person, he told me that the internet was down. I asked for how long, and he just sat there saying nothing. So I asked again. Then he said, You are in New York, it may be a few days, weeks, or months. I thanked him and hung up. Then i got out my Iphone and used it.

So I am back. Instead of making one huge post of my trip I will give you a lot of little ones. That way you can read only the ones you are interested in.
