Chris Brogan & The Justice League

Fine! I can’t seem to get the post out of my head this morning that I wanted to.
Yesterday, I had to cancel lunch with Chris because of some client stuff that came up.
Today he writes the post that I was trying to write this morning.
I’m a superhero. So are you if you want to be.
Go […]

Ever Have a Post That You Don’t Know Where It’ll Go?

I’ve got a post bouncing around my head, but I can’t seem to get the words to come out on the page. Anyone else ever have that problem?
I’ve really been thinking about community perceptions, how important one’s personal brand and reputation is today more then ever and the power of friends you only know online. […]

Through the Window of the Dirty U-Turn

It’s not decorated or anything like that, but I wanted to give a sneak peek at the newly renovated Dirty U-Turn.
This shot is from outside one of the windows. I’m standing behind the bar and you can see the stage in the far distance.

Stupid Garbage Man

I’m sitting here looking out the window at the arrival of the garbage truck. This week is also recycling so I’ve got a couple of big bins sitting there. Different people pick that up.
The truck sat outside a long time so I was curious what was going on. The driver had got out and was […]

Team Biddy 2007

Last year you helped me and Team Biddy raised $25,000 for MS Research by supporting us walking in the New York City MS Walk.

Well, they haven’t found a cure yet so we are doing the walk again on April 22, 2007 and we are looking to raise double what we did last year.
I’ve set up […]

World Domination Takes Time

Random subject line. I use to do that from time to time to see who is paying attention an this morning I had my Skype title set as something like “so many worlds to conquer…..so little time.” For no real reason, but it made me laugh when Matthew Ebel caught it and asked me about […]

Next Dirty U-Turn Show Announced

Podering Life

I see so much of myself in Dylan sometimes. It’s one of the coolest things about being a Dad. Those little moments when you realize “yup these are MY kids.”

More Successful Than I Thought

Today I got to be more productive than I thought I would be.
Did some educational reading on photography and more importantly wrote a bunch. Sure, I’m just hitting my stride and have a long way to go, but at least I got to sit down and spend some quality time with the old T60.
Laura is […]

The Most Dangerous Bathroom in the World

I was taking a break from writing (yes I got to do some when everyone was taking naps!) and strolling around random Flickr photos when I saw this one and couldn’t stop laughing.
They should totally set up a web cam to take picture of everyone’s reactions when they first walk in and […]

Weekend Sidetrack

Looks like any plans for this weekend may have been sidetracked because Laura woke up this morning feeling horrible. Damn stomach bug got her. Grrr….
Right now I’m on the couch with the laptop. Emily has decided that we are on a train ride. She made up tickets and everything so it’s been fun. Dylan is […]

NBC Gets New Media

Well done NBC! They’ve figured out how to use YouTube to their advantage. To embrace the fact that their videos are going to get up there anyways, so why not make them better.
Last night’s episode of Scrubs was a classic. “My Musical” is an episode that if you missed it, you need to see it. […]

The Power of Video Chat

On yesterday’s Managing the Gray I talked about the power of video when it comes to chatting. How it brings people closer in a way that only voice and text does not work. Because of that my good buddy PW Fenton IM’d me and said “let’s video.”

Now, I talk to P-Dub all the time. I […]

Shame on the Patriots

A friend just sent me this article. Do not read it if you want to maintain a good mood.
It seems that the New England Patriots organization is too busy worrying about football to take care of an injured family and an event that happened in their stadium.
As a parent I would be outraged if this […]

Old School Tunes & Gmail Falling Down?

Last night I found some CDs that I haven’t listened to for a long time. I’ve got one of those old cartridge CD players so I’ve got cartridges of 6 CDs labeled all sorts of different things and last night I grabbed one from the bottom of the stack labeled “LOUD!!” and looked to see […]
