Kind of looking forward to maybe busting out of this funk and getting into the swing of things again. I think anyone who’s been out there looking understands that there is success in [...]

My first real programming/web dev gig was in Tacoma, Washington. My friend Joel had started a company with three other guys and decided they could take me on. More on Blogger…
Black Eyed, PLEASE!
Something came to mind during, and in the many hours that have followed Super Bowl Sunday’s great game. First of all, since I’m not a huge football fan at all, giving the game kudos isn’t a small thing – I was pretty darned entertained throughout the duration.

30 – I keep getting text and image messages from this number: 206-356-95XX. I’m too lazy to call them and tell them otherwise, so I’ll just post it all here… cause I’m not *THAT* lazy. 29 – In today’s politics you can choose the red pill or the blue pill. Either way, if you have [...]

28 – Douglas Colley says: “If being Asian is Wong, then I don’t wanna be white.” 25 – Monday I’ll be announcing my new inspirational talk series titled: Smart Dad, Dumb Dad. My head feels all Etch a Sketch-y. I’m sure this is what is keeping me from taking up jogging. Not to *toot* my [...]

I’m at this fork in the road. Maybe not a fork exactly, but one of those flashing red light intersections where you can drone out to the blinking eye of Sauron up there, wondering which direction to go. If you keep going straight, then you stay on the path you’re pointing at now. I can’t [...]
