<title>Doing The Most Good</title>
<pubDate>Thursday, December 24, 2009 22:38:00</pubDate>
<description>On Christmas Eve, I find myself paying attention to all of the little things that mean so much to so many.</description>

<title>Poetry and Prose</title>
<pubDate>Sunday, November 15, 2009 12:25:00</pubDate>
<description>Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their county. Although this is a line that many people have encountered before (thanks in part to mundane activities in typing class), it is something that far too many of us do not take to heart.</description>

<description>Well, quite a bit of time has passed since my last post. I thought I would make a quick comment as to why I have been a little scarce lately. Of course, it would be easy to blame my absence on real world challenges like work, bills, or social engagements, but the truth is that I have been lazy!</description>

<title>Health Care and Other Stupidity</title>
<pubDate>Sunday, August 9, 2009 21:17:00</pubDate>
<description>After listening to the President's press conference a few weeks ago, I must admit I was shocked to learn that so much confusion existed about such a simple concept. Then again, I guess the discussions were derailed for days by the "stupid" remark that was made during the Q&A following the statement.</description>

<title>Long Live The King</title>
<pubDate>Thursday, June 25, 2009 23:37:00</pubDate>
<description>On a day that marked the passing of Farrah Fawcett, there were many already mourning the passing of a cultural icon. When news of Michael Jackson's death began to surface at TMZ, it seemed that time stood still.</description>

<description>It was interesting to see how BHO summarized his first hundred days in office, and I'm sure there will be quite a bit of spirited debate going on for many days to come.</description>

<title>Comcast Customer Service Is An Oxymoron</title>
<pubDate>Wednesday, April 15, 2009 19:41:00</pubDate>
<description>Have you ever felt like you were the only sane person left in the world? I should start by saying that I recognize that I was taking my life in my own hands by calling Comcast customer service to ask for help with a problem, but I did it anyway. And as expected, after twenty minutes on hold, I came to realize that the irrationality of something called CUSTOMER SERVICE at Comcast is the very reason such a place exists.</description>

<title>My Attitude Is Tattooed</title>
<pubDate>Monday, April 13, 2009 19:41:00</pubDate>
<description>As a result of the many challenges we face today, I find myself spending more and more time addressing the feeble minded, and I want to point out that just because some of you may mistakenly believe you are right when engaging me in a spirited debate, it doesn't mean that you really are. Like Joe Clark, I am the Rockefeller of outrage when faced with ignorance or when observing instances of wasted talent that can be witnessed first hand by striking up a conversation with many of today's young people. It's just sad to think that this generation is the future.</description>

<title>House Arrest or Confinement</title>
<pubDate>Monday, March 29, 2009 21:52:00</pubDate>
<description>So I think I�ve been asleep at the switch for quite a while. I was talking to Josie a few days ago and realized that I have made no comment about the unbelievable actions of Bernie Madoff. When I first heard the news I couldn�t believe that so many people were now penniless due to the intentional actions of Mr. Madoff. Well � let me be honest � when I FIRST heard the news, I checked my portfolio to be sure none of MY money was lost by this criminal.</description>

<title>More Behavioral Predictions</title>
<pubDate>Sunday, March 8, 2009 11:50:00</pubDate>
<description>After my last posting of this kind, I received countless emails from �ordinary people� asking that I publish some of the replies that were sent in. While I am not prepared to do that, I WILL throw a few extra topics out there for discussion. Don�t get me wrong � there were some hilarious replies, but I don�t think it would be fair to those who stepped up to the plate and commented to publish their thoughts without permission.</description>

<title>Requiem - Paul Harvey</title>
<pubDate>Saturday, February 28, 2009 21:52:00</pubDate>
<description>In the months I have been away from actively contributing, I find that there had been very few things that motivate me to post. Unfortunately, the one event that got my ass up off the couch was the recent passing of celebrated journalist Paul Harvey.</description>

<title>Obama Signgte</title>
<pubDate>Monday, September 29, 2008 18:27:00</pubDate>
<description>So I was reading the Wall Street Journal today and came across a story that is really insignificant when compared to all of the other problems we are facing today. But let's face it ... the fact that one family's problem (and solution to said problem) generated the kind of action that really illustrates the willingness of our 'fellow man' to help out.</description>

<description>For what has become an icon in American sports culture, tonight is a very sad occasion. After 85 wonderful years and 26 World Series Championships, Yankee Stadium will end its run as the host to what is possibly the greatest sports franchise in history.</description>

<title>Randy Pausch - The Last Lecture</title>
<pubDate>Friday, July 25, 2008 21:47:00</pubDate>
<description>First, let me say that this is one time that I wish I hadn't waited to post an article. Back in September of 2007, the world was completely shocked by the poise of Professor Randy Pausch. After learning that his pancreatic cancer (diagnosed in August 2006) had spread, and that he was only expected to live another three to six months, Randy was motivated to make one last public lecture entitled 'Really Achieving Your Childhood Dreams'.</description>

<description>As he was often introduced, �the NBC News Washington Bureau Chief and moderator of Meet the Press� was truly one of a kind. After passing away suddenly on Friday of an apparent heart attack, the realities of Tim Russert's passing have really hit home for many Americans, who, like myself, had come to consider him a friend.</description>

<title>An Impromptu Rant</title>
<pubDate>Sunday, December 2, 2007 9:46:00</pubDate>
<description>At first glance, we can assume that the entertainment industry is in trouble. Overrun with criminals that call themselves union representatives, 'essential staff members' on strike, whining babies that call themselves talent, and let's not forget the people that make it all work ... the studio and label executives. I can't seem to turn on the television without seeing more of the same insignificant news about the state of our shitty entertainment industry.</description>

However, in THIS case, I have seen something that I can't just let go.</description>

<description>With the success of this summer's blockbuster movie The Simpsons, there is huge interest in the longest running prime-time cartoon in history. It seems that America has opened their wallets and allowed Homer to grab all their money for donuts and beer; oh, and all the stuff the guy in the Mastercard voice-over says.</description>

<description>I just can�t let this go. I was on a United flight returning home from a business conference, and as many of you know � nothing is quite so satisfying as the flight home after a long week of sometimes-dry presentations. The day started off well with the punctual conclusion of the aforementioned conference. The ride from The Ambassador East Hotel to Chicago O�Hare was pleasant and uneventful. Curbside check-in � smooth. Even the 40-minute security line was not as bad as it could have been. But this is where my pleasant journey ends.</description>

<title>Hot Topic: We Are Virginia Tech</title>
<pubDate>Tuesday, April 17, 2007 21:33:00</pubDate>
<description>Nikki Giovanni is a prolific professor, author and poet. She has had us on the edge of our seat when "spitting" and "dropping knowledge" on Russell Simmons' Def Poetry. And today, her comments at the memorial service for the many victims of what the media has dubbed 'The Massacre at Virginia Tech' really provided insight into the resolve on that campus and in the community.</description>

<description>I cannot decide how I feel about the whole Don Imus thing. My first thought after first hearing of his remarks (and the associated calls for his ouster) was that there was no way that MSNBC and CBS were going to walk away from the $30 million annually in advertising revenues because of 55 seconds of stupidity. I thought the media empire that Imus controlled was so significant, that this story would have no legs. Much to my surprise, I was wrong.</description>

<description>While out on New Year's Eve with the "usual suspects", I ran into an old friend. Since there were many familiar faces at the table, after some brief conversation, my friend wished everyone a Happy New Year and departed the restaurant with her family. Not wanting to miss an opportunity to hear a good story, I was asked by one of the fellas to recant the story of how this sweet, innocent (but "challenged") young lady once asked me about my feet (stop laughing).</description>

<description>People should base their �heroes� on actions not perception or rumor, or unfounded admiration, but on the actions we take. Clearly, I have two new heroes today. The impact these two individuals will have on the world as we know it will be significant.</description>

<title>Huricanes Everywhere</title>
<pubDate>Thursday, 1 June 2006 23:56:00</pubDate>
<description>Hurriane season begins today, and it would seem that no resident in the gulf coast region is 100% certain that levee repairs, the government's new infrastructure plans, or FEMA's efforts will be sufficient enough to protect them this year. For posterity, and in all seriousness, if you are one of my visitors from that region, please take a moment to read FEMA's post on preparedness. Although confidence is a bit low at the moment, every little bit helps right?</description>

<description>Today, with a few simple words ... fifteen in fact ... a judge remarked "I find no breach of the trademark agreement has been demonstrated. The action therefore fails." That seems to be the final answer. If you are interested in the full legal decision, feel free to check it out.</description>

<title>Digital Reign Interview: Jeff Schader</title>
<pubDate>Tue, 4 May 2006 12:00:00</pubDate>
<description>Once in a while, we are able to get a glimpse into the world of an artist we admire, and for me, I consider this particular artist to be the standard by which all others "skinners" are measured. The creativity displayed by the team over at The Skins Factory is incredible.</description>

<pubDate>Tue, 12 Apr 2006 22:00:00</pubDate>
<description>So I was sitting here thinking about the title of this post (thanks for that Bryan), and it occured to me that I have heard it somewhere before. You would think it would be easy to find out who said it, but apparently that's not the case. Just a mindless ranting.</description>

<title>Is This Irony?</title>
<pubDate>Thu, 26 Jan 2005 19:35:00</pubDate>
<description>I received an email yesterday with a link to a video entitled 'Why Macs Suck'. Given my affinity for the Mac line of products, I just had to visit the site and check it out. I mean, I couldn't just allow someone to create a short movie belittling my beloved Mac without at least making an effort to defend it, could I?</description>

<description>After a wonderful evening of merriment with some dear friends, I was sitting here at my computer burning up some significant bandwidth and wondering what I should do next. It was then that I came across a quiz. Normally, I don't take quizzes like this, but I was intrigued by some of the questions. This is your run of the mill "hero quiz" that asked the simple question "Which hero would you be?" After answering the 66 questions, I got the following result.</description>

<title>Computer Arts: Macintosh Icons</title>
<pubDate>Fri, 30 Sep 2005 22:49:00</pubDate>
<description>Have you ever wondered what process started the current GUI phenomenon? Why, the Macintosh of course. Susan Kare�s original designs for the first Macintosh computer icons continue to exert a powerful influence over the look and feel of modern-day personal computing. Given the current infatuation with skinning and the creation of new "themes", who would have thought that it all started with the Mac.</description>
