This morning I happened across an excellent site containing archival television shows from the 50s, 60s, and following. Those who remember television during these times will love this. Check it out at the Museum of Broacast Communications. There is a lot of written archival material but streaming video as well. You’ll be reminded of how […]
Oh man. That was just awful. Painful, sad, bad and awful.
It’s Sunday, 02-05-06, and we’re enjoying that yearly excursion into football heaven: The Super B. We’re fair weather football fans but it’s fun to watch on Super Bowl Sunday. This post is really about the halftime show however. Mick and the Stones are singing […]
Hey everyone, welcome back! Thanks for coming by.
The blog took a nearly permanent backseat to my worklife and the holidays but today’s post at Jake’s blog compels me to write (see his post from 01/22/06). You may know from previous posts that I started a serious, life-changing diet on 10/28/05. You can read about it […]

If you’re reading Jake and Maggie’s blog (you should be) then you know that Jake has lost a whopping 30 lbs. He looks great and feels even better. I’m very proud of and happy for him […]
Sometimes you’re the tree, sometimes you’re the beaver.
Hmm, 15 Aug was a long time ago. Time to re-engage. Clearly, the singularly most significant thing that has happened in the past 88 days is the birth of the most fantastic infant in the world. Draw Near and Pay Homage!
Happily, Jake and Mag are chronicling every smile, squeak, pursed lip, knitted eyebrow, fart, and […]
If you have to speak before others regularly, or irregularly, or at any time, here’s an excellent link and resource for better presentations. The site is called BBP (Beyond Bullet Points). Just take a moment to read the short blog entry on The Money Slide.
It’ll help.
To all my healthcare and consulting colleagues: you should all have in your armamentarium, and at your fingertips (in your Start menu or under the Apple), the most recent Medicare fee schedule. If you don’t, you can retrieve it here. The new year’s schedule is usually available in November. However, when you are online, you […]
