Little Me was the parody "confessional" self-indulgent autobiography of "Belle Poitrine" (French for "Pretty Bosom"), subtitled The Intimate Memoirs of the Great Star of Stage, Screen and Television, by Patrick Dennis, who had achieved a great success with Auntie Mame. A bestseller when introduced in book form, the work was also later staged on Broadway as a musical. The heavily illustrated work featured numerous photographs by Cris Alexander, who combined retouched stock photographs with original photographs taken to create Belle Poitrine's life. Published in 1961, it was considered pretty risqué at the time. (Several of Alexander's photographs were rejected by censors.) The book also featured family and friends of Dennis and Alexander, including Dennis' wife, Louise, as "Pixie Portnoy", and ballet dancer Shaun O'Brien (Alexander's life partner) as Mr. Musgrove. Actress Dodie Goodman and comedienne Alice Pearce were prominently featured. Actress Jeri Archer portrayed the often overexposed, self-centered and clueless Poitrine, and Kurt Bieber was her beefcake co-star and paramour, "Letch Feely". Little Me was reissued in 2002 with a new preface by Charles Busch and foreword by Alexander. The plot of Little Me tells the rags-to-riches-to-rags-to-riches, etc. story of Maybelle Schlumfert, an overdeveloped and self-deluded girl who rises to become Belle Poitrine. (An example of her delusion Belle is born in 1900 and the book proceeds with a chapter for each decade- but chapter six is titled "Frankly Forty") Throughout the book, Poitrine's character trumpets her successes (which are few) while glossing over her failures (which are many). The book was a stinging parody of the cult of celebrity and self-importance stemming from the numerous "personality overcoming obstacles" biographies of the late 1940s and early 1950s. "Little Me" was made into a musical, with book by Neil Simon, music by Cy Coleman, and lyrics by Carolyn Leigh, which opened at the Lunt-Fontanne Theatre on November 17, 1962 and ran for 257 performances.

2. "Steps to Starting a Small Business Online Through Free Marketing Opportunities "
July 03, 2009
One of the most frustrating things I found through the steps to starting a small business online was learning how to market it with very little cost because I was afraid of making a mistake and spending money on non-profitable advertising and marketing. Fortunately for me I met a group of people who taught me the free stuff I could start with. Sharing some of it seemed like a good thing to do since I know other people struggle with the same frustrations when they are going through the steps to starting a small business.

As a small business owner I understand the importance of networking. Yet for many years I cringed at the thought of it...trying to avoid it at all costs.

8. Would You Believe That Someone Could Make You Rich?
June 30, 2009
If I were to tell you that I could make you rich would you believe me? Probably not. People don’t believe things that sound too good anymore. There has been too much disappointment to believe something even if it were true. I could pretty much tell you anything great and you would have a hard time believing me. It’s how our world works. The saying, “If it’s too good to be true, it probably is” has taken people by storm. Not to say that’s a bad thing, because there are a lot of phony things out there in the world.
If someone told me they could make me rich, I’d look at them a little funny.... (read more)

What probably will surprise you is the method I found to do this. I found that it is entirely possible, and even profitable, to sell jewellery that you no longer need.
This all started about a year ago, when my boss at work told me they were going to have to either cut my salary or let me go. Obviously I'd rather have done neither, but I had to choose one so I took a 15% salary cut, which had me... (read more)

Ever had an ex complain you paid too little attention to her? Ever felt wronged? That you weren't guilty of that? That you did pay more attention to your woman? Round-the-bush talk, communication is a vital factor in any relationship, business and tailored alike. Straight-to-the-point-blunt-talk, you did not communicate enough.

22. Bring The Sound Of Nature Indoors
June 24, 2009
I sit at a computer all day. Though there are windows in my office, I miss being outdoors and the sights and sounds of nature. When I was a little girl, we lived close to a creek and the sound of its chattering over the rocks was always a delight to me. I would fall asleep and wake up to those babbling voices and it is something I miss. So, the closest I could come to that in my office was a water fountain. And every now and then, when the sound of the water fountain in my office grabs my attention, I go back to that place on the creek. These days, there is not one person untouched by s... (read more)

23. The Peoples Program is the Epitome of Cash Gifting
June 23, 2009
If you were to look up the word epitome in the dictionary today, you might find a definition that sounds a little like this for the word epitome: a person or thing that is typical of or possesses to a high degree the features of a whole class. For example, “The Peoples Program” is the epitome of “cash gifting.” Which really means what? “The Peoples Program” embodies all of the characteristics of “cash gifting.” I don’t know about you, but that sounds really good to me.

24. Clever Ideas for Sponsorship Event Marketing
June 23, 2009
Let me ask you a question. What's the key to successful event marketing? Without a doubt, it's standing out in a crowd. Among the thousands of people milling around, you have to find some way to get noticed. However, this seems to be a notion most people miss. Just look around at the next tradeshow you attend. Same old, tired exhibits are what you'll see at most booths. That's a shame because with a little effort, custom inflatables can transform your exhibit from ordinary to outstanding.
