So, I took a day off last week to relax, recoup and reenergize.At about 10:30 AM, I walked up to the patio tables at my favorite Starbucks. The air had a fall crispiness that made me smile. It was sunny and smelled like leaves.
I had a few books with me, along with my Pilot V5 Precise, the greatest writing pen I’ve ever used.
I sat down with my Orange Spice tea next to two guys and a dog.
The dog’s name was Oscar. He was a Boxer/Great Dane mix.
One of the guys looked over to me, noticed my books and asked, “So, Scott, are you a student?”
“Yep,” I said.
“Really? What school do you go to?”
“School...?”
“Yeah. You know, Wash U, UMSL, SLU?”
“Oh. Yeah, I don’t go to school.”
“But you said you were a student, right?”
“Right.”
He looked confused.
“I guess I didn’t realize you had to attend school to be a student," I said.
He smiled.

Great story, Scott! Lately I'm digging podcasts from iTunes U - business, economics, & history classes - all free. Gotta love that...
Scott, just learned about your blog from a blogging class I took on Monday night, last night. You've got great stuff. I'm a real estate agent seeking to separate myself from the pack and get expert at generating leads (and cash) from the Internet. I'll bookmark your site.
