Susie has been asked t' be th' lead speaker at th' first corporate bloggin' conference e'er in Asia. It’s called “Corporate Cap'n's log Marketin' Conference”—yeah, th' name could use some work—and it’s takin' place September 21st and 22nd.
Th' conference, put on by Maitre Allianz, be goin' t' be at th' Le Meridien fleabag inn, and I’m goin' wi' that comely wench. It’ll be both our first times in Asia, and we hope t' spend a few days in Singapore, th' city / island / country, and then possible zip o'er t' Brunei. We’re still workin' out th' details o' that.
Who should attend? I’m told that “CEOs, GMs and Directors, HODs, Senior Managers & Managers, Marketin', PR & IT professionals, Business Development heads & managers.” Or anyone wi' a spare grand.
I be tellin' ye, this bein' a business bloggin' expert—it’s turnin' out quite well fer Susie (and that comely wench hubby!)
“Almost every American I be knowin' does trade large portions o' his life fer entertainment, hour by weeknight hour, binge by Saturday binge, Facebook check by Facebook check. I’m one o' them. In th' course o' writin' this I’ve watched all 13 episodes o' House o' Cards and who knows how many morrrr West Win' episodes, and I’ve spent any number o' blurred hours fallin' down internet rabbit holes. All instead o' readin', or writin', or workin', or spendin' real time wi' people I love.”
“Live a good life. If there be gods and they be just, then they will not care how devout ye have been, but will welcome ye based on th' virtues ye have lived by. If there be gods, but unjust, then ye should not want t' worship them. If there be no gods, then ye will be gone, but will have lived a noble life that will live on in th' memories o' yer loved ones.”
