Can’t help but notice the stamp on Todd’s hand. Given the fact that Todd and you loved music and to go dancing, I’ll take a wild guess that this was after a night of boogie-ing?!!

For some reason today, there have been several searches for Todd’s name that lead to several views of this web page. I’m not sure why or who is searching for Todd, but please feel free to share a memory or two.

Comment on What to do when the low hanging fruit has been harvested? by Rebecca Wissler (@rebeccawissler)

Thanks for this post. This is excellent all around, but I think it will really resonate with my Associates. I’m speaking at an Associate development luncheon today and I’m going to distribute this via email afterward. What’s also interesting is that I have a senior partner whose bread and butter will dry up within a year or two and he–for one reason or another–is going to be my most challenging recipient of this info. A step to the right, perhaps, will suit him best. Thanks, Heather!
