"Better than Cosmo! Others just recite facts, but I like your posts best because of the in-depth analysis."
"Great work! Your stuff is a sight for sore eyes in this wash of dumbed down crap for the masses I see all the time on the internet."
"Greg is a dapper gent, intelligent, and easy to hang with. He made me feel right at home in his film noir-esque lair. We talked at great length about books, influences (we both write), and on a broad range of topics that might cause one to raise an eye brow while pondering. He was great fun to roam the city with. I'm looking forward to another round of pursuing art exhibits and deep dialog over late night coffees the next time we cross paths."
"Greg! Thank you so much! I will not forget this! Your help will make it easier for me to secure a job when I get back home from Switzerland!"
"Dude I hate to write you about this again but those nutrition tips you sent me were a fucking godsend. Anyway, I do appreciate ya... you're a good egg."
"Dear Mr. Greg: You are creative and amusing... two things I find irresistible. If I didn't live so far away, I'd go after you myself! Thanks for all the laughs."
"Hey thanks for all the stuff on girls and relationships. I was up reading last night for like 3 hours. We had an earthquake not too long ago here in California, but man, some of the stuff you wrote shook me more than the quake!"
"I have to say, you provided several hours of entertainment for me just now. It is a great thing to know there are other people with similarly twisted senses of humor and intelligence. Thank you very much Greg Thompson, and good luck with the woman of your dreams. Should you ever feel the need to entertain me again, please feel free to do so, I'll take it any way I can get it."
"He may not have the following like many of the guru's out there, but I'd bet my bottom dollar that Greg is one of the best copywriters in America today."
"You're a very quotable man, Greg. I loved some of your bits of wisdom so much I posted them on my Facebook! It's easy to tell many of the things you say come from a place of true experience."
"Greg did work for our tour company for several years. What impresses us most about him is his ability to combine the technical know-how with the creative side of advertising to produce results faster. Instead of hiring a copywriter, artist, and web guy, we can get all of that and more in one savvy individual."
"The best thing I like about your writing is how I feel the presence of your heart among the words. You say what you mean and do what you say. I admire the authenticity of your beliefs even though I don't always agree completely."Philosophy

Wednesday, November 30th, 2011Ask most people this question nowadays and they’re likely to scoff and act like you’re an idiot for even bringing up the issue. “OF COURSE it’s not!” they’ll protest, “Just look at ____” and then they’ll rattle off whatever their favorite Utopias are they’ve read about recently. “We’ve GOT to do something about this,” they’ll [...]
What Does Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness Really Mean??
Saturday, July 16th, 2011I’m sure that you, like me, were introduced to U.S. History and the Declaration of Independence in a very BORING way, probably by a very BORING teacher who droned on and on about the confusing language of dusty old documents written by a bunch of ugly guys who died long ago. This sort of thing [...]
Weird Hidden Forces That Shape Our Decisions
Sunday, August 9th, 2009I was in the mall yesterday when a sterile female voice echoed through the PA: “…And remember, please drive home safely. We want you to be our customer for a long time, so we do care about your safety,” she ended suddenly chipper,“Thank you!” At first blush the recorded fembot’s words would fly over my [...]
How To Have The Courage To Stand Up For What You Believe In
Monday, June 22nd, 2009Not long ago I was stuck in a dingy machine shop 20 miles from nowhere waiting around for the mechanics to install a new pipe and muffler on my car. This was not because I love automobiles or get some kind of visceral thrill from rumbling engines and screaming tailpipes. No I was here because [...]
The Way of the Shadow – A New Philosophy of Success
Thursday, March 19th, 2009When you live to please others, you lose the most valuable thing in the world: your authentic self. When you live to please yourself, you attract the friends, money, power and love from only the sources that make YOU most happy. And in so doing, you gain the freedom to help whomever you wish, or… [...]
