I saw former 'vice-decider" Dick Cheney on the talk shows this weekend discussing his heart machine. He proudly showed the 2 pumps and explained the process of keeping his heart (I still am not sure he has one) beating. All I could think was "Too bad he didn't lose his health care when he left office." He has no shame about bad-mouthing President Obama and particularly the health care reform plan, completely discounting the millions of Americans who can't have a heart machine or even consider a transplant because they aren't covered.
Karma rocks.
About Me
- Steve Woodsmall
- As the saying goes, “experience is what you get just after you needed it.” I started this blog after writing my book, It Beats Eatin’ Lizards: Lessons Learned in Leadership and Life, in which I share short stories that reflect the lessons in everyday experiences, like the lady who won’t give the governor more than one piece of chicken. The title comes from a lesson learned about the power of perspective: it can always be worse. In 1984, when I complained about a boring lecture in a hot auditorium at Maxwell Air Force Base, my classmate (an Army Green Beret and survival instructor) matter-of-factly informed me that “it beats eatin’ lizards.” I retired from the United States Air Force in January 1994, where I was a commander; management consultant; budget officer; executive officer; curriculum manager; project manager; quality consultant; and quality advisor. Since then, I’ve held various positions in training and communication. I have a master’s degree in business administration and am currently pursuing a Ph.D. in organization & management. I hope to hear from you for any feedback or suggestions you might have!
