Tonight I was going to host the first official ThoughtsFromParis BlogHop where you could share your blog posts with my readers. And something wasn’t sitting right with me. I’ve done versions of this before, and quite frankly, it hasn’t really worked all that well. I didn’t want to promote a BlogHop and have it not benefit anyone. So I ditched it.

Dino Dogan – Triberr – Bloggers are Weird
I sit down with controversial social media visionary Dino Dogan to talk about what bloggers can do to increase their visibility. You’ll learn why doing collective marketing benefits the whole and why you don’t need to worry about your Facebook fan page or Twitter numbers. If you’re a blogger, you can’t miss this.
Where Are The Posts?
DongDong kicks butt.
I would like to apologize for my truancy.
Not that I’m so narcissistic to believe that you live, die, and breathe my words like oxygen. I hope you don’t. But if you do, you just may make it into the Paris will. Anyshit, I haven’t been updating the blog as much as usual. There’s a few reasons why…

Tony Robbins + D.J. Paris = Well, Something
Today I’m heading to Tony Robbins conference.
With no hyperbole, this seminar is fifty-five hours. In four days. Here’s the breakdown.
- Thursday: 1:00 p.m. – midnight
- Friday: 8:30 a.m. – midnight
- Saturday: 8:30 a.m. – 1 a.m.+
- Sunday: 9:00 a.m. – 7:00 p.m.
You really have to commit to this bad boy. My boss was generous enough to pay for my admission and I’m pretty excited. I know a lot of people goof on Tony, but I’ve been a big fan since I was nineteen. I’ve read his books, listened to virtually every audio program, and now, finally attending a presentation.
Ye Olde Renaissance Faire
Today marked the thirteenth straight year I visited the Renaissance Faire in Chicago.
Well, it’s not exactly in Chicago – about an hour away just north of the Wisconsin border. It’s a long drive for a festival and I make it every summer. While there are street fairs and events that happen every weekend here in the city, I get most excited about the Ren Faire. Why? I really don’t know. I’m not someone that speaks in olde English nor do I play fantasy role playing games. I don’t own a sword, dagger, or scabbard. I don’t think to shout, “Huzzah” whenever someone wins my favor, and I don’t refer to the bathroom as a privy. So, what is so great about the Faire? I’ve thought about why I come back every year, and have found a number of reasons…
Which Verified Accounts Follow Me On Twitter?
Notice how I snuck in that she follows me? I love name droppin'!
Sometimes I get bored.
Sometimes I get bored and I need validation.
About a year ago I found out that Larry the Cable Guy and Fran Drescher follow me on Twitter. Impressed? Don’t be. I’m sure it was an error on their respective ends. Larry follows over 1k people and Fran follows 22k. I have never been tweeted or direct messaged by them or received any indication that they like my fart jokes. In fact they probably don’t even do their own tweeting – maybe one of their publicists likes my stuff. Or it’s just random whatever.
