Ballard & Bain

The Origin of the Company Name:  Ballard & Bain LLC

For the first twenty years of my life I was Kay Bain.  On the occasion of making what was to have been a lifetime commitment, my name became Kay Ballard and it has been so ever since.

I confess that, I, Kay Ballard, am both the Ballard and the Bain of Ballard & Bain LLC. Naming my company after myself twice is just one more indication that I am ego driven and self-absorbed beyond redemption.

While it is not terribly unusual for the founder of a company to name the company after herself, I must sadly admit that naming one’s company after one’s self twice cannot be defended and can only be explained by a diagnosis of advanced clinical Narcissism.

Have pity on me.

LOL well I suppose it could be thought of as the first two stages of life of Kay, and your next one will be added as well! ;-)

Shawns Heart.

Forcefully, through oceans of winds.
Swarns graceful knowledge,
Inspired a pigeons flight.
Fly higher, over pass disgraces.

Early mid-evening stouts.
Revolution, begining to take place.
Techno, sophicated realities.
Emmanuels kingdom, awaits.

Princess wish, blessing faith.
Phantoms, begin backing into shawdows.
History, bringing wisdom.
Mans heart, humbolie unfolds.
