REVIEW by San Francisco Cronicle
Young sings to family of 20,000 at 20th Bridge School concert

I went to Shoreline Amphitheater to watch Bridge School Concert in 2001. That was just after 911. It was a great concert as well.

Firehills safely arrived at Atlanta on Oct 9

I arrived at Atlanta on Oct 9 safely. 12 hours flight by economy class from Narita was a kind of torture for me. Beer was not free of charge, 3 times meal looked like a dog's breakfast. I drove down to Dunwoody from the airport and found that Atlanta had ocean of trees. It looked like I was in "Jukai" around Mt.Fuji in Japan.

The Way of The Guerrilla


I have finished to read the Japanese version of "The Way of the Guerrilla: Achieving Success and Balance as an Entrepreneur in the 21st Century (Guerrilla Marketing)" by Jay Conrad Levinson. Amazon.com says "According to Jay Conrad Levinson, to flourish into the next millennium companies must encourage managers and employees to achieve equilibrium between their personal and professional lives while they simultaneously develop relationships with customers and suppliers that build trust and loyalty. The Way of the Guerrilla: Achieving Success and Balance as an Entrepreneur in the 21st Century outlines his blueprint for this corporate future through four distinct sections: The Goals, The Setting, The Tools, and The Secrets."

This book was written almost 10 years ago, but I think the principle of the way of business, marketing or life is always same and the author emphasizes this universal truths. If you see the English title, it seems this is written for entrepreneur but every business person can learn the way of the guerrilla.
