Adelaide Joe! This picture was taken on Kangaroo Island in South Australia in 2014, not far from where we lived at the time in Adelaide. I had just purchased this hat – made of Kangaroo leather – and was feeling especially stylish. You can even see the price tag!
Many thanks for coming by. I established this page in May of 2016, shortly after quitting Facebook. I had grown tired of the inanity and overall uselessness of social media in general.
And I wanted a place to rant.
Call it my Mad Money Blog. Mad Money is that leftover money you can spend on anything anywhere just because you can afford to lose it. So, what I say here is the equivalent of mad money – I can afford to say it. And so, if the things I say here are offensive to some while gratifying to others, then you know what? I am happy either way!
What you will find here is information on who I am, what I offer, and the occasional blog post. My dissertation — entitled “The Effects of Social Media Marketing on Help-Seeking Behavior” — is now available for download via ProQuest Dissertations. The work concerns itself with how a therapist’s web presence — specifically their social media claims as to numbers of Likes, Followers, and Pluses — could persuade or potentially dissuade help-seekers from ultimately making contact with that therapist.
If anything that I write intrigues you, offends, pleases, or is somehow off-putting to you, would you let me know? And if you are one of those people who like to “check up” on what I am writing, for whatever purpose you may have, please discuss your conclusions with me first. Would you do me that courtesy?
Again, thank you for visiting.
