Club Soccer in California?

I am curious, which clubs in California are considered to be the best in the state. That is to say, who is known for quality coaches and successful teams. I am interested in hearing from you all.........let me know.

Red Eye

On the red eye to Pittsburgh, PA tonight. Today was one of those days that makes me feel very lucky to be building an educational services company that is geared at impacting kids over the long haul. I am going to blog more about this later, but to say the least we are really excited about some of our upcoming projects. I really feel that our traction is beginning to tack hold in the market.

That being said, we are going to have to stay on our toes everyday. The competition is fierce.

Airline Industry

Headed to San Diego and then Orange County for meetings. The last year I have flown out of Sacramento about 50 times. One thing that consistantly puzzles me is how the airline industry has been able to survive in such a competitive environment with such terrible customer service. I guess that speaks volumes about folks at places like Jet Blue who have tried to brand themselves as customer service specialists. To some degree it has paid off for Jet Blue, and others like Southwest. Today the lines are long with weekend travelers and 3 of the 4 security screening points are operating. Sacramento seems to be out growing its airport.

Parker in action on the Piano

Parker is a talent on the piano. I am serious. He's got some real game. Everyday my job makes me realize that kids can do awesome things. Our only goal in society should be to help inspire them.

Champs!
