I’m sitting on the Acela, headed out for a couple of days of business travel. This trip is more fun then usual as Scott Monty is sitting next to me as he heads into NYC for some meetings of his own.
But, as the miles pass by the window and the train clacks along the tracks […]

Do you ever notice how one change in the routine can throw everything off? Right now I’m dealing with that as Laura is away at a conference and thus it is just me and the kids. That’s cool and we do great of course, but it is just different without Laura in the house. Little […]

It only took nine months, but yesterday we signed all the paperwork to sell our old house. Best part was that it was sold to a young couple just starting out their lives together. Brought back memories for Laura and I both and it made us happy to see. I’m not sure it has completely […]

Early mornings seem to be my most productive time. As I type this I’ve got conversations going with someone in Boston and Bankok via IM. I’ve brainstormed around a potential new client and I’ve done my morning surf of my Bloglines to see what is going on in the world. Perfect time to record a […]

The cute woman doing the weather told me that today it is suppose to hit 70. Hard to argue with that! Of course I won’t get to appreciate that much of it, but in spirit I will.
Yesterday our treadmill arrived. We’ve wanted one for a while and when taxes didn’t hurt as much as we […]

Yesterday I registered for PodCamp Boston 3 that is happening on July 19 & 20.
Conferences to me, no matter the size, cost, location, topic all boil down to one thing for me and that is the people that attend. We constantly talk about “social media”, but the majority of the interactions are happening through bytes […]

I like fresh starts. Something bumpy and makes one week not as good as you had hoped so you get to reshuffle the deck and start all over. Last week wasn’t bad, but this week feels powerful and full of promise. It feels good.
I recorded a mellowed out Accident Hash this morning. I really slacked […]

A typical Sunday morning for me involves getting up early, feeding Roxie, letting her out, grabbing the paper out of my driveway and then sitting down with a cup of coffee and the Sunday Boston Globe. It has been that way for as long as I can remember. But, every so often a morning comes […]

The team at Aquafina saw my recent post about Snapple’s new “water” and sent me some of their brand.
What I like about this already is that this one has no calories in it like water should. But it has Vitamin B and caffeine in it. Sort of tastes like an unchalk […]

On Monday mornings I always open my calendar and look at the week ahead. I also look at the big calendar in our kitchen to make sure things are in sync. Somehow they never completely are. It became instantly clear that this week will in fact be another busy one.
Rumor is that we’ll be closing […]

Sitting here in the living room with the Today Show, my morning coffee an the laptop. Perfect setting for waking up and blogging. I also just watched a little unboxing video with JC Hutchins that gave me a smile.
We’ve got a bunch of little things to do this weekend so I know the weekend is […]

Last night my phone beeped and there was a direct message from my buddy Gary Vaynerchuk linking me to his idea for Good People Day 2008.
If you know anything about me, then you know that I love when an idea brings people together. This idea was simple. Use whatever media form you want, to tell […]

I hate April Fools on the net. Way to many people jump at pranks and stories that are close enough to be real that it actually ends up hurting people. That part sucks.
But, there were a few fun ones that I personally laughed out loud over so I thought I’d share them:
Tiki Bar TV’s LaLa […]
