Day 19,559
Congrats to the Tarheels and Roy Williams. It broke my heart when you left Lawrence so many years ago, but we were fortunate to land our feet with Bill Self. I’m confident that he’ll get KU back to the top of the mountain in the coming seasons. After all, Dean Smith was in his 60’s …

Day 19,558
I have decided to join #WriteChain, and I am now committing to writing 200 words per day in my blog. One of the things I am pursuing as a goal is developing better habits, and I’m hopeful that making this commitment will help me along that path. Among the topics that I can/should/will write about: …

Day 19,557
I’m going to try something new, and, hopefully, it will stick. I was listening to John Fugelsang’s show in Insight SiriusXM (channel 121) the other day.

January 1, 2016. Time to once again…
… make a plan to get my collective crap together. Some days, I’m not sure who I respect more – folks who make elaborate plans for the New Year and freely share their goals or those who keep quiet, make a few simple goals for the year and stick to them. I have a few …

Brain Fry
Study, study, study. Research, research, research. Such can be the life of a technical trainer. I do love my job, and I love (!) my employer, but I gotta tell, sometimes the amount of time and level of concentration one has to commit to learning technology and prepare for a continuous barrage of certification exams …

A complete lack of motivation
I don’t feel like doing this. It’s 8:00 on a Wednesday night, and I have about as much motivation to right as I have to go skinny dipping in a frozen lake. But if that’s what I feel like, I’ll use that as my prompt. Every now and then we all get in the doldrums, …

Feb 17, Mardi Gras, and I’m counting my blessings…
19 years ago, everything changed for me. I made a vow, to love, honor, cherish, in sickness and in health. My wonderful girlfriend became my wonderful fiance and then became my wonderful wife. It’s been an absolutely incredible journey sharing my life with her, and together we’ve become the proud parents of three kids who …

If you’re not a scientist, then shutup. Your …
