Robby Slaughter commented on Pat Coyle's group 'Meridian Institute'
I think we live in a much more realist society today than we did 40 years ago. NASA's seems to now be pitching cheaper space travel rather than the glory of human endeavor. Furthermore, we are no longer racing against alternative collective world...

You too can be considered a spammer on Smaller Indiana! Let's talk about the great ways available to annoy, frustrate and alienate the SI community. The easiest way is to cross post messages. Got an event coming up that might apply to people who ...

Robby Slaughter replied to Nicki Laycoax's discussion 'Netflix No Vacation Policy'
I think you made the right decision with the candidate. But wouldn't it be great to not have to make such decisions? That's really the point of the Netflix vacation policy. Nobody should have to keep track of how many days you have off. Nobody sh...

Wearing Hats in Church

In the few minutes before the procession, I studied the worship space. Rows of pews flanked a long central aisle. Bold architectural lines culminated above a raised corner, forming a radiant starburst. Soon, a groom in a black suit and a bride in a white gown would appear and advance. Only the sea of heads in front of me seemed irregular. Each one was slightly obscured by a spiral of fabric: a kippah, or yarmulke.

Same But Different

A Jewish synagogue is unlike a Christian church in ways we fo… Continue

Freedom Killed the Video Stars

From my vantage point running a small business in Indiana, it’s impossible to avoid the tremendous array of “opportunities” for additional streams of income. Each is brazenly associated with an incredulous claim: healthy chocolate, superfood fruit juice, free jewelry or the existence of a subconscious blueprint in the millionaire mind. Given the number of programs and the persistence of their promoters, fairly evaluating each is a full-time job. That’s why I am taking on just one of these ventur… Continue

The Ugly and Unsung

Earlier this month, an unemployed 47-year old woman became an instant worldwide celebrity. Her single act was neither famously kind-hearted nor infamously violent. Instead, she waddled up to a microphone on a British television show, made a few sarcastic remarks and then belted out a showtune. Susan Boyle “dreamed a dream.”

According to a Wall Street Journal article, Tips for Getting Things Done, there are two separate approaches for improving individual productivity:… Continue

Saw your article in the IBJ.. Nice job

Robby...I read your post about iLG...I found it insightful, well researched, clever, caustic, and fantastically presented...You remind of a young William F. Buckley, if he had been of a more liberal bent..Your summation was brilliant, even if most fans/participants of iLg (MLM) do not get it/or admit it...

Help

A few things to consider before joining Smaller Indiana:
1. Please use your real name (first and last) when you sign up, or we cannot open your account

2. Please do not use logos or commercial images for your profile photo

3. Events should be posted in the events calendar

4. You can post pretty much anything you want on your own personal page (self promotion, etc), and you can change the style of your personal profile page to reflect your corporate identification if you so choose.

5. Please keep all comments civil and polite. It's OK to feel strongly about a subject, and it's OK to be critical of ideas, but please refrain from personal attacks of any kind.

If you witness or experience any issues, please contact admin@smallerindiana.com and we will look into the matter.

6. Smaller Indiana is supported by its members, and by corporate sponsors. If you're interested in learning more about sponsorship, please call Pat Coyle at 317 332 7878.
