Jersey Shore

I’m writing from the Borgata in Atlantic City. We made the run down here from East Greenwich in a tad under five hours. We’ll spend the night and then head for Cape May in the morning. It’s always interesting to us to be driving through our old stomping grounds in Jersey.

I pulled up to valet parking at the hotel and there must have been 75 cars outside waiting to be parked. The valet captain sauntered over, we looked at each other, looked at the car, and he said, “Don’t worry, I’ll put it in the VIP area. It will be right next to the cashier when you check out tomorrow.” Tip gratefully tendered, we found a cozy nook inside to read in and snack on truffled fries until the suite was ready. Tonight we’ll dine at Fornelletto for southern Italian, then try some gambling.

My plan is to write the second chapter of The Consulting Bible on this trip for Wiley. McGraw-Hill has told me that Million Dollar Speaking and Million Dollar Coaching may both be released in January.
