Travel (and weather) update: I’ll be talking with a few hundred small business owners in Manhattan this afternoon, and if lucky (on a Friday at LaGuardia, one rarely is), I will miss the snow bearing down on New York and make it to Nashville in time for any snow that will bear down there. Unless I’m stuck somewhere where there’s wifi, I doubt I’ll be back online today.
