Read More ...The Long-Delayed Resolution Update
It’s been a bit since I touched on my New Year’s Resolutions, and I know you are all pretty much putting your lives on hold as you wait to hear the status. So, hesitate no more–here is where I stand. Resolution 1: Average more than 20,000 steps a day Current Grade: A+ Commentary: I’m still […]
Read More ...A $60 Walk
I figure, it’s not often you get to make $60 for taking a walk. So you should take advantage of it when you can. Unbeknownst to me, it all started two Sundays ago when I shut down my lawn mower and put it away on the back porch like I always do. Then, last Sunday, […]

Terribly excited to see that Vera Nazarian’s Cobweb Bride project is nearing release. Vera’s work is always interesting. As a backer, I also got to pick out a second work. I am so lucky! Share Me

I’m joining a group of co-workers riding their bike into work today, so it’s a short morning behind the keyboard. The ride is an annual thing, associated with our focus on health and welfare. Last year it was attended by 15 or 20 folks, and had a bit of fun with it. Lisa was talking […]

Read More ...Time for Some Fanboyish Tomfoolery
So I’m completely stoked to see the Table of Contents of the July issue of Galaxy’s Edge. Not only because it has my story “Teammates” in it, but because of some of the other folks in it–and one in particular. As of July I’ll be able to say I was in the same publication as […]
Read More ...Why Health Care Costs So Much
This should be an interesting series regarding health care. We need to change the conversation from who pays to why our costs are so incredibly high relative to everyone else. Otherwise, we’re just wasting our time. I suppose it’s not far off that we’ll be flying to India or wherever for medical treatment. Share Me
