The Good and the Bad

The good is that I found my favorite beer of summer, Pete’s Rally Cap Ale, finally in stores and I’ve enjoyed some nice cold ones out of the beer fridge tonight and I’m smiling.
The bad news is that I finally have to get a new keyboard and mouse. The keys are sticking and the wireless […]

My Favorite Guys

This is after a pile of homemade french toast this morning.
The lighting was perfect and it’s one of those moments that really makes you happy as a Dad.

New House Coming Along

Last night I got a TP from my developers that they wanted me to come check out the house so I did. It’s different then what I had in my head, but I like it.
When they dropped it on the land it didn’t fit quite right. Afterall I’ve got a very steep hillside piece of […]

End of the Week

It was a long day in the office. Thankfully it was also very productive. It was a nice combination.
Tonight I’m jonzing to do a podcasting but first I’ve got some web migrations to do in order to fix Accident Hash and U-Turn. Nothing earth shattering to fix, but it was driving me nuts all day […]

Breakfast Thought

Ok, so you all know about bee colonies right? They make honey and such?
So, there are worker bees and there is a queen.
The queen makes decisions that the bees don’t get a say in. The bees are just making their honey and doing their thing.
If the queen decides to do something it doesn’t mean that […]

It’s Unleashed

My PodShow+ profile page is up and alive.
The last video with Ron cracked me up. Especially with Marta rolling over and telling him to get off the computer or whatever it was that she said. Absolutely classic.
Plus I had fun watching the PodShow team videos as well. They are probably funnier when you know some […]

Talent

Jason Calacanis is my new hero. I saw him give an amazing keynote at last year’s PME and his blog is something I always stay up to date on.
Yesterday though as the Rocketboom shit hit the fan he blew me away by making a real job offer through a blog post to Amanda Congdon. […]

SL Office & Etiquette

Shared my thoughts on some basic Second Life Etiquette last night. It was bugging me so I wrote it. *grin*
Had some very productive meetings last night. I seem to be having more and more of them and now that I’ve set up my SL Office I’m hoping to have plenty more. Of course I’m still […]

Back to the Grind

This weekend was nice and relaxing. Not a whole lot going on except in my head where things never seem to quiet down or chill out. I know I’m not the onlhy one with this problem. *grin*
The kids tried to stay up and watch the fireworks on TV last night but started to fade pretty […]

Happy 4th of July

A Wake in Second Life?

I have to admit that it was a little weird to tell someone today that I was going to a wake in Second Life for Adam Curry’s mom. But, after being there I’m so glad I went because it was yet another example of a way that I would have never imagined this medium being […]

Power of Music

I woke up to find an e-mail in my inbox from Ron Bloom letting PodShow know of the passing of Adam’s mother.
Having just gone through a death I know it’s not an easy time. But, I also know that as it did with me music is helping him deal as evident on the podcast he […]

Random Thoughts

Take one day off from the web and your mind gets a little jumbled. Comments from life, second life and the geek world.

Scoble has been banned from Second Life. Can’t say that anyone was surprised. I mean he did put his kid upon stage right in front of the world with him in world. That’s […]
