A New Month is Upon Us
Posted on June 1, 2012
I woke up this morning after far too short of a night. One of those where the mind won’t stop going and thus early to bed isn’t an option.
That being said, I woke up filled with purpose and direction today. I’ve been been able to successfully juggle the chainsaws that have been presented to me and I’m making good progress on a number of projects.
The new book is inching closer every day and I have a hard and fast deadline that no longer can be moved or missed without changing a lot of things so that is helping me focus.

Next week after speaking at BlogWorld, I’m headed to the Vimeo Festival + Awards and I couldn’t be more excited.
Pin ItThe Signs of War
Posted on May 29, 2012
I’ll never forget the first time I saw the signs.
I was driving home from the office when I noticed the first one, then another and still many more.
Every telephone pole on the back road I was driving had a white posterboard on it with the name of a solider, an age and state. There was an American flag with each of them. It took me a minute to figure out what they were all about. It was then that I realized it was Memorial Day weekend and that each of these must represent a soldier who had died in Iraq.
Pin ItInterview With Jason McCarthy – Founder of GORUCK
Posted on May 29, 2012
You should all know by now that I’m a big fan of the GORUCK brand.
They make top quality gear that works great on the battlefield or for the busy traveler like myself and after a year since buying and beating up my GR1 everywhere I go, I can’t say enough good things about them and their products.
That is why, earlier this year when I had the chance to meet the founder of the company over burgers in New York City I jumped at the chance.
Pin ItKids Grow Up Fast
Posted on May 25, 2012
This morning when the kids came down for school they both had on some new ONE gear I had snagged then when I was in DC so I had to take this photo as they headed to the bus.
Dylan has really changed from a little boy into a young man this year.
Need proof? Here is the photo I took of them only back in September on the first day of school. Crazy!
Energy Poverty
Posted on May 24, 2012
Three weeks ago if you asked me if I had ever heard of the phrase “energy poverty” I would have said no. I’m betting most of you reading this are thinking the same thing.
But, ever since I visited Ghana with ONE and have been spending more time getting educated on all that they do and care about it is one of the issues that has really stuck with me and that I can’t kick out of my brain.
Energy Poverty is quite simply, that many people in the world don’t have access to affordable, safe and reliable electricity. When the sun goes down, they are in the dark.
