I recently said goodbye to my 2001 Subaru Forester and purchased a 2013 Subaru Impreza. Have a look… I’d bought the Forester 12 years ago — and it was the first vehicle I owned all by myself. I was in my first post-college job and wanted to use some of my income to trade-in my then-Plymouth Acclaim sedan for a SUV. I researched, test drove, and decided to go Japanese.

It brings to mind those famous words of Inigo Montoya (from The Princess Bride ) when his employer continually used the word “inconceivable” Since the introduction of the Agile software development methodology in 2001, business have slowly started to adopt the principles of rapid, incremental change into areas beyond software development. Hang around any medium or large business for a while and you’ll start hearing many of the same corporate buzzwords.

Being in KC at this time, and speaking at such a profoundly modern event, made me recall the autumn of 2001 and the last time I attended a World Series game – much of which I spent in handcuffs. 2001 was a most unusual World Series, on many levels. But it wasn’t the norm in 2001 – the year the Diamondbacks won it all, and me and Al missed half of it.

Explosion at the Boston Marathon. Like many people around the world, I stood glued to reports of the terrible bombings in Boston yesterday. I saw the early reports emerge on Twitter, and soon enough there was almost nothing else in my feeds.

I think Seth Godin outlined Marketing's Catch 22 best in his book The Purple Cow - (and I am paraphrasing here) - when times are tough the tendency is to conserve capital vs. when times are good the tendency is to not be aggressive. As marketers we are so often faced with the dilemma of having to cut advertising in times of economic softness. But here is some real data that you can use to illustrate why that is a bad idea.
