Happy Father’s Day Video Mix

KK and LT at Ormond Beach

I love my daughter Kaylie - she is barely 4 months old, but she is the most positive and remarkable person that my wife and I know. What a blessing. Since I'm feeling blessed, why focus on real estate today? Lets celebrate Fatherhood by picking a few hit videos for posterity. Lets start with The Godfather of Soul - this is an edited video of amazing dancing. I love the Godfather. My Dad, Bo Taylor died in 2003 after suffering from Alzheimer's Disease. His favorite singer was Eddy Arnold - a country singer who almost single-handedly led the "Countrypolitan" sound of the middle twentieth century. Here he is singing in 1973 with the smokin' hot Lynn Anderson. I loved my Dad, and he thought Lynn Anderson was sexy. Here's to you, Bo. If my lovely 17 week old daughter grows up to be a famous rockstar, then I want her to rock like the sisters from Heart. This song, "Barracuda" is always on the top 50 list for me. Happy Father's Day. … [Read more...]

In October, a new congress of venture capitalists will gather in Atlanta at the CNN Center. That's good news. I read this in my daily Atlanta Business Chronicle update e-mail.
