Interviews That Matter
Listen to Stephen Bassett. What he has to say will become useful to you when you realize that everything you’re hearing on the news, everything you’re distracted by right now… that the whole of it will not matter when the day comes that you’ll HUNGER to know what this guy is talking about. He’s for real. Pay attention. http://www.lifegivingshow.com
Heartfelt answer. Sam Botta. Interviews that Matter
Tim Cook, Apple, Inc, Partners with Goldman Sachs
Tim Cook second year speaks the religion of football, the religion of product and the North Star at Goldman Sachs Technology and Internet Conference. http://bit.ly/14QABu9 “We’re going to do what’s right… in lobbing the ball forward.” “Frankly speaking, I see a wide open field” ~TimCook, Today at Goldman Sachs Technology and Internet Conference

If you were not reared in Alabama, football is like a religion there, hence the CEO of the most respected large corporation in the world, utilizing the football analogy, with Southern accent despite the years in California, during Today’s ‘Goldman Sachs’ meeting.

Tim Cook, “We’re going to do what’s right” is going to need to be true when I use my time to call today. No, I will not use the iPhone 5 after the way one of your managers chose to behave.
Steve Jobs responded to my emails. Tim Cook and his team are so busy though. I was reared in Alabama and have a fun career in California like Tim Cook. I can only guess that it’s that our Moms are different types of people. I understand the not responding to emails by Tim, that’s smart business. We insource and outsource too. What’s confusing? Broken promises, reckless actions that can affect shareholders and referring our teams to the arrogant that, though assigned to us have had full voice mails. The poor little babies atApple, Inc. Apple, Inc … Can anyone help Tim Cook past the “silly sideshow” he mentioned repeatedly this morning so that his managers find friendly, responsible talent to finish processes they’ve initiated? Watch the “Butterfly Circus” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=od2lg1ZC20s so you can find beauty in life instead of focusing on the “Silly (circus) Sideshows” you mentioned over and over… and over and over this morning in your live, predetermined spiel. Your choice to delay, as I’ve told you, has continued to be expensive. Anyone? Bob Mansfield, Phil Schiller (Alabama’s Auburn University graduate), Dan, Craig…Jonathan Ive – are you going to let someone from Alabama continue to build out Apple, Inc with the people skills of failed Compaq? ” I think that our North Star… can come from…great products.” and then “…but, the North Star for us is always great products.” ~Tim Cook … yes, “customers want that a-ha moment each time they use the product” ~Tim Cook … YES we do, as we’ve had since we were children (with Apple) – that was when you were working as a top executive with COMPAQ. Steve Jobs cared about the ‘fabulous’ experience, and he also cared about PEOPLE SKILLS. Please, you’re from Alabama, you know, where you’re supposed to be nice (not arrogant)… work on your ecosystem. “(The Product) that’s the only RELIGION that WE have, we must do something great… all of this other stuff, we sweat the details on those” ~Tim Cook … yes, the product is supposed to be GREAT… and the PEOPLE are supposed to care. At the moment, your management has chosen to ignore the promises it has made to our teams.

The comedian and Family Feud host is quoted an expert on marital sex after comparing her interview with Sam Botta to words of Steve Harvey. She states “I decided to ask Sam Botta, a celebrity interviewer in Los Angeles, to explain what men want. Sam’s comments about sex are eerily similar to those of Steve Harvey, who referred to sex “the cookie” in Act Like a Lady. Here’s what he told me: Sex is a man’s only emotional connection–it’s like a woman’s desire for communication. Men don’t like to communicate through lengthy discussions , that’s why they always ask women to get to the point. A woman’s primary M.O. __ communication — is rarely pleasurable for men. Yet a man’s primary M.O. — sex — is very pleasurable for women. So when a man asks his wife for sex, he’s not asking her to do something that’s not pleasurable, or something that only benefits him. He loves bringing pleasure to his wife. It’s how he communicates his love for her. You can’t turn this around. Oftentimes a man likes to have no communication all–yet if he doesn’t spend hours listening to his wife or girlfriend talk about her feelings or problems, he’s considered a prick. http://bit.ly/WEFiVs Sam also added that most of the profiles he receives are from women who present themselves powerful and independent, though these are salable traits. But men aren’t impressed with that, he says. What men want more than anything else in the world is to be respected and admired, loved and accepted. The rest is largely immaterial. Sam’s comments about sex are eerily similar to those of Steve Harvey, who referred to sex “the cookie” in Act Like a Lady. “Please–puhleeze–don’t hold out on the cookie. We don’t care about anything else,” he wrote. “We don’t care about anything else; we need the cookie. The emotional stuff–the talking, the anything cuddling, the holding hands, and bonding, that’s Y’all’s thing. We’ll do those things because we know it’s important to you. But please understand: the way we men connect is by having sex. Period.” That would be like a man cutting off all communication with his wife or girlfriend when it doesn’t suit him. It would be like a husband saying this to his wife: “Listen, honey, in marriage sometimes things happen–people close to us become ill, or die, or one of us gets depressed, etc.–so i think it’s reasonable when i don’t feel like talking, listening or paying any attention to you. I just don’t feel like communicating. Thanks for understanding–just like you expect me to understand the no-sex thing.
