What do Huell Howser and Adam Carolla Have in common

Two Celebrities that do not see eye to eye
“This is truly going to be amazing” says Huell Howser, so if you do not know who these two celebrities are then please take a minute to read their bio’s as we have included them here for you.

Meet Huell Howser and Adam Carolla
Huell is a documentary television celebrity and Adam Carolla is a morning radio shock jock and our full bio’s of the two of these men is located right here Huell Howser and Adam Carolla celebrities.

The exposing article was written on April 25th 2008 when Logic was trying to figure out what we would blog about and striving to build a personality for me Logic at least for online purposes because these two are both based in California Huell Howser out of the KCET television headquarters in Los Angeles and Adam Carolla out of CBS-Radio in Los Angeles a few miles apart from one another, these guys both make their livings doing two of the most completely opposite ends of the entertainment industry.

Here is Huell, Adam and Logic
I think the photos also show the size comparison of our level of celebrity being that Logic is the smallest, least well known today (minus my blue hair because I am cheating on my size) but my mission in life is to truly change that and to do it in part right here on the Logic Talk Blog.

First off let Logic explain that myself and Viper Logic like both of these personalities a lot in fact although Adam does not believe there are people that do not go to movies or watch those ridiculous T.V. shows like American Idol, Dancing with the Stars or even CSI, well my friend there is, it is Logic who watches History, Discover, Nova, CNBC and of course California’s Gold or the old Huell Howser shows on Video Log only and in the mornings starting around 6:00 AM the office listens to the Adam Carolla show so if Adam were to crawl out of his Lamborghini Gallardo once in the while he would know these people exist. LOL. 

These two celebrities share a common interest with Logic
Welcome to Palm Springs, California home to Logic and the weather reporting here Palm Springs Weather and second home to Huell who is around town often and the most talked about location and place to visit by Adam on his radio show, so Logic now feels a special bond because we all three share a mutual love for Palm Springs even though Logic has only meet Huell once at the World Famous Melvyn’s Restaurant at the Ingleside Inn here Palm Springs Famous Restaurant
That is head waiter Bobby in the picture he works most evenings preparing dinner tableside at Melvyn’s. Melvyn’s is really a great historic place owned by our friend Mel Habor.

Logic has not met Adam Carolla yet
Celebrities even the easy to access are not really a Logical thing for Logic because I do not watch most TV or as KCET puts it Logic is more into the stars in the sky then the stars on TV.

What is in Adam and Huell’s future?
Looking at the future realizing that Adam Carolla picks fun at Huell almost daily while Huell would never do that, or would he? The two of them would make a really funny pair on the radio or the television show because Huell almost faints when a little girl he was interviewing and Huell when asked her a question about something she said “it sucks” where Adam asks you if he can “see your junk” but like I conveyed earlier they are from two different worlds and each make up a part of the online Logic.

Businesses that make money in a down economy

A similarity businesses share that make money in a slow economy
We really notice reading trade journals and the likes how some businesses survive and even grow at a faster rate during a downturn in the economy and that lead us to write this article because even for us at Viper Logic with 15 years of working towards bringing the right new products and services to market at the right time also known as the “Perfect Storm”.

We believe we have the right product that is a service at the right time that would mean we have a 1 in 15 ratio showing at least in our case that market timing is a very difficult task to accomplish requiring a true forward looking vision and prediction approach.

Be accessible
Meet Viper Logic and their mascot Logic
This is not an article about our product Viper Mailer, technical support, education and training, support ticket system or even our coined Insta-Response live Q and A service but rather beyond these normals, it is about access to the CEO of our company and companies that take this similar approach to doing business and growing that business in a down business climate.

One place we discovered about finding these down economy money making businesses is identifying which ones have easy access to the business owner(s) and how available to you they are (from the top down) at all times. A good example is to start with ourselves, I am Logic the CEO of Viper Logic Corp and my real name is Lance Conway and my personal email address is and I reply to every email I receive with my direct phone number located in the signature of the message so I can be called directly.

Below in the titled paragraph Meet Logic explaining how utilizing a friendly face via an avatar can be put to work early for a start up company and utilized over the life of the company because we all know that as a company grows that the CEO will have greater responsibilities in the expansion and day to day operations.

Meet Logic
If you have not met, had contact or know what or who Logic is all about you can learn about Logic here at Logic’s biography Logic Talk is your friend waiting to meet you however in short Logic is the corporate mascot an avatar for Viper Logic an Advanced Technology Engineering company. Logic is the future communications representative and this approach allows the clients to access CEO 24/7 because Logic is friendly, informative and at times when the CEO is preoccupied or away on business another qualified company representative can be the CEO making the CEO available at all times from the customers point of view.

Making your company CEO personal and available is profitable
We have been operating the Viper Logic Corp. since May 1993 and have for most of these 15 years had this message on our main web site Viper Logic How We Work to allow the shy or unsure a way to meet, discuss and enjoy a relationship with us. This approach puts us and can give you and your company an edge (from the eyes of your customers) above the competition because unlike the usual site that has the “Contact Us” (which we have as well) you are providing a very personal approach to being available.

Expanding the CEO availability approach
There has been only a few people who have actually used the “How We Work” in 15 years. So because we will never accept not making friends on a continuous effort and making sure we stay in touch utilizing the technology that is working today for others is why we set out to create a Logic profile on over 40 forums, 10 social networks, and 6 blog community directories that we started about 2 years ago.

Today we have a 4 month old blog “Logic Talk” offering the same access to us but with yet an easier and simple way to contact and share your ideas, thoughts and anything else.

Who taught Viper Logic to be accessible
Viper Logic is a client to a small 3 or 4 branch Orange County California bank and this bank during the good economic times and even more now that the economy and in particularly the banks are going through a down time this bank continues to send out letters take out newspaper articles and always include both the email address and the direct telephone access to their president at all times.

This Bank is Sunwest Bank and that is who and how we learned to have our own company offer this exact same approach to business and we call this tactic taking down the corporate barrier allowing absolute access to the business. We understand that as a company grows it might begin to feel like it is not possible to accomplish this but there are always ways to make the public at large fell they have this ability to provide the same feeling especially with greater resources that a larger organization has to its disposal.

Viper Logic utilized their avatar to be sure that the access to the CEO would be maintained as the company grows however for banking we do not envision them as and industry trying such a daring move like using an avatar.

Current Major in work Viper Logic Products we are applying this Friendly CEO Avatar approach to
Our first product that we began pushing the Logic avatar to is Viper Mailer an Email Marketing Software that we provide as a web based service we feel is a perfect down economy tool from a price point based on the (ROI) Return on Investment that email marketing provides and if you would like to see it and try it for free you are welcome to here Email Marketing Sign Up because we are absolutely sure this service will help any business or organization prevail.

One carry through from the personal touch approach that is featured on Viper Mailer is located right on the home page of the site and is our Insta-Response an active twist with good urgency wording that conveys we are here to help you right-away.

Going Green in this down economy also sells well
Next the Viper Mailer and email marketing as an industry in general is a Green Product reduces the carbon footprint and is the lowest cost affective way to maintain customer loyalty and building growth for any business or organization. Email Marketing service providers is a business model with great quarter over quarter growth because it is really relativity new (starting around the mid to late 90’s) to most businesses regardless of size that continues to grow at an even greater rate during a down economy since the current downturn the first major downturn since before email marketing was created and has been offered as a service.

Logic wants to be the California Weather Mascot
Our second product is a series and is even more exciting to us and we hope you will feel the same way about it because it is a focused approach on reporting weather and local information city by city for California presented by Logic.

If you would like a copy of our growth plan for California Weather please send and email directly to Logic here and a very detailed copy will be sent to you via email or US mail.

U.S. Employment forecast for 2010

Logic with help has a forecast on the Global Economy
The current rates are posted here by the United States Bureau of Statistics Current US unemployment rates however this article is focused on the Logic Prediction for the second half of 2010’s unemployment rates.

Logic believes that if the American consumer begins a trend that has been absent since the late 60’s and early 70’s that our prediction of the employment of America can be a scenario (written below) that plays out sending America into unemployment percentages not seen since the one in 1929 that lasted through the early 1940’s which was the Great Depression when the unemployment rate was 23.6%.

Employment percentages explained
We have been enjoying the economy as watchers and investors since 1983 and we have never needed to report about something like record unemployment that we will do today because if our scenario is even close to on the target we are predicting the government will not have the resources to help each American through these times in the form of a bailout like they have been doing for the banking industry and now the residential real estate industry.

We look at the current unemployment for June 2008 which nationwide sits at 5.5% but as a number it means nothing to us that have jobs so we pay little attention to the number subconsciously we just say “well the number is low and I have my job so it does not effect me and usually no one I know” so we go on about our lives.

What is not in the current unemployment rate is the drop offs those where the benefits run out and those that are under retirement age and capable of working but elect not to or just give up on trying to find work or are unwilling to take a job of lessor skill requirements and pay and in addition to derive at our 15% reality figure we add a little for those subsidised by employment payouts, early retirement and government subsidized persons.

We believe that if we add a realistic 15% to the current number regardless of the current percentage we are safe to say that the current unemployment rate is 20.5% and Viper Logic is located in California where the current June 2008 unemployment rate is 6.9% making the actual state number utilizing our formula is 21.9%.

Before you read our Scenario below and if you missed the article Economy? Is Retail in a Tailspin US Retail is in a tailspin that lead us to this prediction you might like to read our article

Possible Unemployment Scenario
The month is around June of of the year 2010 and with fuel prices anywhere above 100.00 dollars a barrel will assure fuel prices at the pump above 4.00 dollars and food, electric and service industry pricing are still rising causing the average American to reduce spending on extras even further to maintain some level of quality of life. The global producers of everything Americans buy (because we no longer produce products in America) are having mass layoffs riots in their streets effecting the entire global employment food chain.

Reported unemployment has been inching forward since the second half of 2008 each month as the largest employment sectors being areas where people are employed to sell all things from clothing, real estate, automotive, coffee, office products, pet supplies, food and anything we can imagine are adding to the monthly unemployment rate at alarming numbers bringing us to the new unemployment rate below.

Small business bankruptcy filing have been increasing since the first quarter of 2008 adding even more pressure to the unemployment figures as well as the major chain operators of fast food, coffee, clothing, sporting goods, Specialty good, electronics, restaurant and anything we can think of are filing for bankruptcy after a year or more of downsizing the number of locations and employees on a national scale pushing the reported unemployment rate to 25% we have a greater repeat in reported unemployment as the Great Depression.

Our Unemployment Prediction
Now we add the 15% reality number to the 25% reported unemployment number and the total US unemployment figures are 40% and before you call Logic a nut or a negative person we would like the opportunity to explain that this is how we see the unemployment playing out due mostly in our belief that Americans have come to the realization that the past 12 to 15 years of credit ease, money flow ease, plentiful opportunities, and the spending like we were all rich providing everything for a quick (short lived) feeling of good but all of those high end cars larger then we needed homes, Swiss watches and trips to places just to say we went there did nothing for their real quality of life and their savings and long-term retirement.

Americans begin saving more spending less
In our prediction of what will lead to the mass layoff in the area of sells will be that Americans are going to return to placing their emphasis more on savings and investing and less on consuming of course, this will be after the dust settles on the banking industry and the people payoff all of the debt they accumulated while the good life was rolling along.

Giving up on the spending and reducing the workforce required in the sells employment sectors is a really little price to pay if we are right and Americans begin focusing on their savings and retirement especially because we are living longer today then ever recorded before and this is in part one big driving factor in our prediction.

Business Growth Economic Edge Builder

When will I understand I get what I pay for

Looking inside of forums membership
Logic belongs to over 40 FREE online forums for web masters, marketing and domain names and after spending a portion of the day building our back links (back-links are an active keyword or words link that take the visitor via the blue underlined link to the URL Internet site you represent) through the signature in each topic I add or each post I make on forums. I have come to the realization that you get what you pay for which for most all forums is “0” dollars. As and active member I read and learn as well as to reply to topics where I can be of some benefit to the person asking various questions.

Reflecting back signature links might bring a little strength to our email marketing software product however what Logic could do is just buy a high ranking Internet profile site offering advertising space at a fixed price on a monthly bases and wipe out all of the time and efforts for building a solid signature linking system. Signature links are a small part of the complex SEO/SEM (Search Engine Optimization and Search Engine Marketing) process.

It takes a lot of time and great effort from my normal work to add to topics on forums and agian with a forum like with a free anything for example like some free blog services you are never in control of your future and the operators offering these free services to you and I basically put us at the Mercy of the operators.

SEO/SEM defined
We want to answer what an SEO/SEM effort does for your online site irregardless to whether it is a traditional web site, blog, social network, proxy or photo/video storage and share site you will need to apply these tactics provided through the understanding of SEO/SEM to achieve some level of online success because the key ingredient to people finding your site starts with the search engines visitor and with the best keyword or words these visitors type into the search box to find your site.

Example we apply SEO/SEM tactics to our email marketing service web site Viper Mailer under the the keywords “Email Marketing” so when a search engine visitor does a search looking for email marketing types in these key words and our site Vipermailer.com would arrive on the first page and with a lot of work the top of the page.

Who participates on forums
When you join a free forum like the two non technical ones we operate here Palm Springs Discussion and here California Beach Discussion in order to participate and not just be a forum reader you need to first become a member by signing up selecting a handle like mine is Logic on all forums then you can even upload a picture or an avatar like Logic is an avatar then proceed to read, learn and post questions in the available topics.

How you decide what type of forum you are interested in like Catnip is a vintage watch repair and watch collector all as a hobby for him from his regular job of being the (CTO) Chief Technology Officer here at Viper Logic. You might not be aware that their is a topic for anything you can imagine like our two above where one forum is for those that love the beach and the other is for those that love the California Desert so people that like either of these two forums can meet, share, hook up with others that share these same interests.

If you are not a member of a forum today you will find forums to be fun and informative. Being an operator of a few forums and members of 40 forums is a great way to be involved in the topics that interest us all.

Why professional forums should be a paid service
We have been active members of forums since 2006 and have to share what we have learned about forums with you and why we discovered why the forums for professional forums like web site forums or watch maker forums need to have a fee to allow you to participate in them.

We are actually members of a great domain name forum where we are paid member here Domain Name Forum and the first thing you realize is that the forum is more serious and secondly you see that the types of people are on topic and the level of questions and answers to topic posts are of a higher caliber.

All forums should not be paid as you might have noticed above we only mention professional forums related to business and industries like watch makers, auto mechanics, domain names, web masters and marketing to mention a few and there are many more that are for people looking for connections or help with a pro profit business however a forum should always be free for tourism, medical, non profits, how to garden and there are many more like our two forums and for most forums this should hold true.

Why are people running forums for FREE
Nothing is free in life and I hope I finally learned my lesson because forum operators run their forums providing a service for you and I to connect and to share our common interests however they are not independently wealthy persons trying to be nice they are actually either offering the other services or products they own, they can build up a large amount of members and sell the forum easily for millions of dollars or they are running those not to successful (In My Opinion) PPC (Pay Per Click) advertisements that generate a modest amount of income for the forum operator.

We have nothing against the reasons to have a forum at all they are great for making friends and Logic remembers first joining them however they can only get you and I so far so clearly they are no longer of any use to us and the new available time would be better spent doing something else.

Logic is giving up on most non paid forums
Forums are a great place to discuss things of interest in and organized format as most forums are great at offering and there are rules, lots of rules and site moderators that are policing the sites for the operators protecting all members from time to time warning or banning people that violate some of the rules and Logic will be the first to share we have had to ban users once in the while for a period of time because they offended another member or they posted a non relevant reply to a topic or they placed an advertisement for something or another on one of the two forums we operate.

So you can see rules are a great thing and even if you are a member of a paid forum and we can share that the operators are policing the forum as moderators but they are just not needed as often especially in the area of posting to just be posting and in the area of spamming the forum which is the same as posting an advertisement.

Logic is tired of the same 10 or 20 questions being posted on the 40+ technical, domain name and marketing forums everyday all because these people those free members are eager to post a topic more then to read what is already posted and posted and posted about the same topic. The quality of the type of Quote Webmasters has truly came down due to the what easily appears to be a great way to make a couple of dollars.

Time is very important and time is money if we as humans are worth anything at all we need to realize the most precious commodity we are all given, though not equally is the gift of time. So spend it wisely like Logic is now going to do by firing these free time consuming professional forums.
