I have a bin in my apartment containing a random assortment of item: old photos, newspaper articles, thank you notes, the polo from my campus tour guide organization, and apparently some trophies. Today while looking for some things from the bin that I may use in a future presentation, I stumbled upon this trophy. I didn’t […]

I’ve been spending a bunch of time over the past few days setting some new goals. I tend to do things like this twice a year–in January when everyone does New Year’s Resolutions and sometime during September when I get a quick lull in my speaking schedule.

So I got back on my bike today. Perhaps, I should back up a bit. When I moved to San Diego, I sold my car. Since I live in downtown, I don’t really need to drive around that much to get what I need, and I tend to fly to most speaking engagements and rent […]

I missed the closing ceremonies of the Olympics last night. I was traveling to my speaking engagement today and wasn’t able to get in front of a TV set in time, but I did love reading about them. Sounds like it was the best closing ceremonies to date. And now we have today… …and the […]

Okay, so I’ve caught Olympic fever–or at least an Olympic cold : ) We’re a few days in and it is my background noise. I even discovered that the local cable company added an Olympic spotlight station where I can watch all 6 channels of coverage at the same time. Olympic overstimulation, but quite fun. […]
