Yesterday on Accident Hash I talked a bit about how I really feel that with the collective power of unconferences happening around the globe that we’ve got to harness that power and use it to help others out more. I was specifically talking on the show about the idea for a PodCamp New Orleans, but […]

You’d think that getting a phone call from people involved with John Edwards campaign would excite me right? It did!
But, after the phone call I wished they hadn’t. Left a bad taste in my mouth.
I just wrote about it over here.
I’m REALLY hoping this isn’t the end of the conversation because they are on […]

Stop it! I don’t know why, but this shit really hit a sore spot with me.
What I’m talking about is all the comparing and bitching about “real” conferences and PodCamps. Are they different? Yes! Are they the same in some ways? YES!
There is room for regular conference, un-conferences and everything in between. I think it’s […]

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 […]

I barely checked e-mail or anything else today. But, for some reason I did tonight just before going to bed and that was officially a mistake.
It takes a lot to write an e-mail that makes my blood boil to the point of pain. I had to get up off the computer and totally cool down. […]

That is the song cranking on my computer right now. I’ve got Rage Against the Machine on shuffle right now.
I’m back home safe and stressed.
The weather isn’t helping either. I try to keep looking over to the X-Mas tree to smile but it isn’t helping. Just doesn’t feel like the holidays yet and it should. […]

Yo Apple. Bite me! I really do like and respect you as a company. I love my iPod and can’t imagining not owning one.
I’m also an avid podcaster. I produce three podcasts: Accident Hash, Managing the Gray and The U-Turn Cafe. I started podcasting in late 2004. Have been doing it ever since.
Summer of 2005 […]

I think tonight is “Not C.C.’s Night” on all accounts.
4:45 pm on a Friday night and the bank is closed. Both ATM’s at the branch not working
The special new drink I wanted to try has one number misssing from the bar code so no dice
I make dinner and we start smelling gas. Leak somewhere when […]

Ok Decathlon Sports, a new page for your customer service 101 manual if you have one. I’m not sure you do since you sucked twice tonight.
Here is the scenarios
A customer buys a bike from you on Sunday. On Monday he rides that bike on a paved bike path and the pedal breaks off and […]

Best Buy, you blew it.
It’s Black Friday here in the states which means that all the maniacs will be at the stores early today to get some crazy prices on stuff. Me? I just go online to see if there is anything good.
I need to get a new internal hard drive for the computer. Just […]

No sooner do I post my last message and get ready to turn into bed then I check my e-mail and BAM I’m back in a pissy ass mood.
WTF is going on in the world today? What happened to talking to people? To following up? Did I miss the memo saying it was now a […]

My first instinct was to do a very loud podcast, but I couldn’t get in the right frame of mind and thus I knew it would suck.
So instead I discovered the magic formula. It changes on any given day or night but tonight it was:
Bag of chips + jar of salsa + Beer + Fight […]
