It's Good to Talk
I’ve been imagining you all this past couple of weeks frantically opening your bookmarks or feed reader in squeaky anticipation of either a new blog or at least a new post. You could be forgiven in your bleary and teary-eyed state after a weekend of gargantuan proportions of wondering what [...]
Don't be an Outrageous Waster
Every time I turn the TV on I’m confronted by some British TV actor who seems to have made a B-line for the states and looks headed to be the next flavor of the month. I can never take House seriously due to the fact that its hobbling star, Hugh [...]
Steering Clear of Clueless Cliches and Bizarre Buzzwords

(Ab)normal Service May Now Resume.
I feel kinda bad for not having blogged on here for the past week or so. I could make excuses about conferences and such, but I’m on record more than once that it only takes fifteen minutes to throw up a blog post. But, whether that detracts from the quality [...]
The Hills are Alive with the Sound of Wheezing

Do Not be Better than Me or I will Sue
A little while ago I read about some crazy parents in San Francisco. If you don’t feel like clicking the link because it would mean you’d have to temporarily leave this wonderful blog, you should call this guy. The jist (sp?) is that some parents of female high school basketball [...]
Internet Poses Bigger Opportunity / Problem for Politicians in Coming Years
Not too long ago, I posted about how the internet could affect political campaigns from a statement verification standpoint. That blog was spawned by comments from top Google brass.
