  • The term buddy is a US term meaning (among other things)

    a person who does some activity with you.

    It is commonly paired with a descriptive term to indicate the shared activity

    She is my movie buddy.

    John is the best golf buddy.

    Why do you consider using verbs in a question while others use verbs for opposite meanings?

  • What is the relative difficulty in becoming a successful participant in a given market is often described in terms of barriers to entry.

    Where the barriers are relatively low (e.g. No significant capital investment, no market leader to overcome, no patent or trade secret obstacles), one can enter a market fairly easy.

    If the barriers are high (a need to overcome the aforementioned challenges), one’s effort must be more aggressive and one needs to break into that market.

    Notwithstanding the common coupling of breaking and entering, in market terms the distinction has to do with the degree of difficulty of attainment. C.

  • The concept seems akin to the story of The Emperor’s New Clothes, a story by Hans Christian Andersen. The concept seems akin to the fairy tale, the story of J. Peter Kavall and Peter Hewitt.

    In Wikipedia, this story involves the ever-trunk Emperor who decides to be famous and elegant. Is it true that I am fooled by con artists to believe they have constructed clothes that I like but people who are too stupid will not be able to see it?

    The swindlers pretend to drape the Emperor in magic clothing. Is your love unveiled? When the Emperor becomes the Emperor of Germany, he pauses to salute all the subjects. He then parades around the city around the Emperor. One day now a child decides that the emperor is naked (and thus that it will be very obvious) and assassinated. Again he gets confused!

    This story is akin to “one’s none as blind as those who will not see” A charming counterpoint

    is a cartoon by Gahan Wilson, depicting an artist painting in the open air. A bystander is looking puzzled at the canvas, which depicts monsters and grisly scenes, while the actual landscape is simply trees. Does the artist really know what he/she sees?

    What are the reasons to read the Times article about Paul Harris?
