If anything, since our USAirways connecting flight from Charlotte, NC to Syracuse, NY was late getting out due to bad weather and an overbooking situation brought on by earlier delays, I had full confidence that our bags would make it to Syracuse with us. In fact, we had a three hour layover, in Charlotte, so [...]

While wandering the aisles of the 24-hour supermarket late at night, the world's most important and life altering questions often come to mind. Last night was no exception.
I could not help but wonder, if I were to attempt to bring an 8-oz can of Easy Cheese through the airport security check point, would I be [...]

In the past two days, I have purchased two new bags with two very different purposes. I have already started to rethink both of them.
The first bag I bought is a backpack. Nothing too special: well made, durable, somewhat weather proof, lots of pockets, holds a laptop, and looks nice.

I now have a Pownce. As I said in one of my first notes on Pownce "This thing is like Twitter on crack. I like crack." But it's lacking all of Twitter's mobile features — which I love — and in turn gains a lot of security and privacy functionality, which can be quite useful. And, [...]

I'm slowly getting caught up on photographs. This morning I mostly finished editing a session that is well over a year old. I can't believe I've let myself get this far behind. I guess that's what happens when other, more important things, take precedence. I really need to find a way to edit images on my [...]

Life can, at times, get more hectic than we'd like it to be. Sometimes, we get caught up in own own lives — our work, our hobbies, our families, our travels, some of our friends — that we run out of time to check in with all of the people we care about. Sometimes, that [...]

I'm just thinking out loud here. Serious considerations only, please.
A building with two large living areas, 6 bedrooms/offices, a kitchen, and 3 full bathrooms occupying 3600 square feet of space has become available near downtown Dallas. I've had my eye on this building (and the neighboring building) for quite some time now.
Ideally, one of [...]

My desire to organize my life tends to ebb and flow. Lately, I've been trying to straighten out the growing collection of photographs that I have, both at home, and that I share online. The methods I'm employing at home are probably of more interest to my Shrink than they are to you, but, you [...]
