About Me: Hello Fellow small business owners.
I am Glen Brink with 30 years in my home business. Right now I'm focusing on easy Internet marketing automation.
I was born an intellectual, went into math and ended up programming Cray super-computers.
Then the home business bug hit me with direct mail order (to leverage my time as a professional software consultant.)
Now I'm semi-retired after enjoying the ups and downs of running my own full time business. However, I can't leave behind the joy and satisfaction of working with other self-directed people.
So I keep my computer running and my mind engaged.

You're a 19 year old kid. You're critically wounded and dying in the jungle somewhere in the Central Highlands of Viet Nam . It's November 11, 1967. LZ (landing zone) X-ray.
Your unit is outnumbered 8-1 and the enemy fire is so intense from 100 yards away, that your CO (commanding officer) has ordered the MedEvac helicopters to stop coming in. You're lying there, listening to the enemy machine guns and you know you're not getting out. Your family is half way around the world, 12,000 miles away, and you'll never see them again. As the world starts to fade in and out, you know this is the day.
Then - over the machine gun noise - you faintly hear that sound of a helicopter.
You look up to see a Huey coming in. But.. It doesn't seem real because no MedEvac markings are on it. Captain Ed Freeman is coming in for you. He's not MedEvac so it's not his job, but he heard the radio call and decided he's flying his Huey down into the machine gun fire anyway.
Even after the MedEvacs were ordered not to come.He's coming anyway.
And he drops it in and sits there in the machine gun fire, as they load 3 of you at a time on board. Then he flies you up and out through the gunfire to the doctors and nurses and safety. And, he kept coming back!! 13 more times!! Until all the wounded were out. No one knew until the mission was over that the Captain had been hit 4 times in the legs and left arm.
He took 29 of you and your buddies out that day. Some would not have made it without the Captain and his Huey.

May God Bless and Rest His Soul. I bet you didn't hear about this hero's passing, but we've sure seen a whole bunchabout Lindsay Lohan, Tiger Woods and the bickering of congress over Health Reform.
