...surprise quiz
You’ll enjoy this quiz. You’ll also be surprised.
Rules: Do not write your answers down and DON'T SHOUT THEM OUT. Just go quickly down the page.
Pick a number from 2 to 9…it can be 2 or 9 or any number in-between.
Take the number that you have selected, and multiply it by 9.
That should give you a two-digit number. Take those two digits and add them together.
Take the resulting number and subtract 5 from it.
Take that number and correspond it to the alphabet, numbering the letters, A=1, B=2, C=3 and so on...
Take your letter and think of a country that BEGINS with that letter.
Take the LAST letter in the name of that country and think of an animal that STARTS with this letter.
Now, take the LAST letter in the name of that animal and think of a color that BEGINS with this letter.
Oh, and one more thing...
There aren't any orange kangaroos in Denmark.

...the myths of publishing
Will your next published article or book unleash a torrent of new clients and customers? Once you finally get quoted in the Wall Street Journal, will your name become a household word? Is an appearance on CNN the answer to your low-sales-cycle blues?
Sudden, dramatic results do occasionally follow media attention but more commonly the effect is dead silence. Yet, publishing/media is touted, nonetheless, as a business development strategy second to none. Why?
To find out, see “The Myths of Publishing” written by our market research specialist Jia-Ling Loo. It may also remind you that you are forgetting your best friends. Click: http://www.thoughtleading.com/myths_article.htm
