In the past my distribution list was approaching 200 people but with age and aging relationship in business it has been shrinking to maybe 50.\u00a0 A lot of the emails are bouncing and it is getting harder and harder to arrange the time to refresh the lists.\u00a0 I am hoping Facebook and LinkedIn will pick up many of those whose emails are no longer valid.\u00a0 With my track record I will probably not update this blog until the new years so with that I wish you a Merry Christmas &amp; Happy New Year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I am beginning to suspect that I have entirely too much to do to maintain several blogs &amp; I even added another just to try out Tumblr.
