Apparently I've caused a bit of a stir (disruption)? But I will never be unprofessional to anyone on the Brains blog. I'm just stating my opinion and I'm pretty sure I still get to have one in the good ole US.... Isn't that part of blogging? Having your own ideas, thoughts and opinions?

I’m just stating my opinion and I’m pretty sure I still get to have one in the good ole US….

Isn’t that part of blogging? Having your own ideas, thoughts and opinions?

As we rank for every major branding term there is. We don't attack anyone. Just give our opinions on branding. Some are great, others not so great. Maybe those that attack first should expect an honest review coming back at them. Stopped linking? Sorry no idea what you're even talking about? Spike controls whether or not a link goes back to our site. Ask Spike why he took down the link. My posts on this blog have never been insulting or an attack on anyone. I will never attack anyone on their blog. If you don't like my opinion fine, but the only one attacking here is you. And frankly your opinion of the BIG website is meaningless.

On a side note - Don't think that no one noticed that you stopped linking in your incredibly horrid, (and I can't stress this enough) terrible, terrible website when it got blasted by a fellow commentator yesterday - so let's stop pretending that we're all invincible.

So they've apparently been muttering for a while. They love working for me. I tell it like it is always. Some people don't like that but most do. Since no one here knows who works for me I don't think you should pass any judgement. I have an outstanding team and they all know where they stand with me. Sorry if you feel hurt because I said employees don't have the guts to do it on their own. But they don't and that's a fact. Otherwise they wouldn't work for someone else. Let me ask it this way. Why wouldn't you want to run your own destiny? What's holding you back? Does one really desire to have a boss? I think most if not all would want to do it on their own but they don't because of the risk. Therefore the only disrupting they do is for the owners of the companies they work for. But sitting on the beach 7 months out of the year ain't a bad life. p.s. I love distrupting, in my work, social life, everywhere. And I have the guts to say it.

I’m new to this shindig, and I may be naïve, but I’ll take respect over a margarita any day, sir.

Of course you'll have to put up with those crotchety ol' captains taking you to the same ol' spots in their GPS. They don't have the guts to try some place different. Why don't you ask him to try some place new? You might not catch anything but at least you'll make a new disruptor friend. The blue marlin bite down there is fantastic.
