This week was a big week in history, the John F. Kennedy assignation files were released. Nearly 3,000 secret government files related to John F. Kennedy’s 1963 assassination have been made public more than 50 years after he was gunned down as he and his motorcade rode through Texas’ Dealey Plaza.  

This (as in today’s) blog found its voice or muse while reading my friend’s “Fridays with Fred” blog. I did a number of blogs around likes and more recently dislikes.

Hey, what do you feel like doing today? I've got it...let's throw some axes. C'mon...     Well if you were in Paris, you could. There's a place called Les Cognees - French for "axes" or "hatchets" - where people can gather after work and pay to hurl heavy edged weapons around. All you need is about $17 and for an hour you can feel like a warrior :)  

Two weeks ago my blog consisted of a list of my Dislikes, e.g., Judge strike outs.  My blogging concept is to encourage comments and then respond to them, i.e., interact with the audience and create a conversation.    This week I seek to double down on the interaction by publishing the reaction to my Dislikes by the readers.  The commenter Dislikes are as follows:Paul Napolitano: Disingenuousness/phoniness

  About five years ago, I wrote a blog about the issues I was having with a former client who owed my firm significant money. He had taken to the internet to disparage me and my firm in order to have leverage over his debt. The blog essentially centered on the help I received from others to deal with this sort of extortion.  Through that experience, I  learned how important it is to have a network of family, friends, and colleagues and that it is okay to ask them for help when you need it.
