On The Other Side… Of The Podcast
Recently I’ve been a guest on other podcasts and it’s been a lot of fun. It’s always weird for me to be the interviewee versus the interviewer. That goes back to the time when I was a journalist. I never like to be the subject of an interview. But I know I need to get…

WordFest 2021 Part Deux
To this moment in time, I still can’t believe the team over at Big Orange Heart did the second Wordfest in 6 months. The first one was in January and was excellent. The other one was on Friday (July 23rd) and was even better. I was glad that Goldstein Media was able to be a…

Vermont State Of Mind
I love Vermont. The beauty is unmatched and it’s so relaxing even if I’m working on stuff for the agency. My parents have house at a top of the mountain in Weston, VT. It’s so peaceful and relaxing even with a crazy 8 year old. This trip, albeit short, is a great reminder that after…

I Got Up Early
Today I got up early. I’m seriously shocked that I did. 5:25 am and I’m not writing at 5:40 am. I have to admit that I would have been still sleeping if my 40-year-old bladder didn’t wake me, but still, the fact that I stayed up and decided to come down and write — I’m…

World Opening Up
As the world opens up (well at least here in the States), I wonder how people are coping with the change after ~15 months of being in some semblance of lockdown. I’m enjoying my time outside the “bunker.” But I’m still cautious about who I meet with. This might be because my 8-year-old son isn’t…

WordFest 2021
WordFest Live, run by A Big Orange Heart, is back for its second time! The inaugural WordFest Live was only in January. It was a total success that they wanted to do another one. WordFest Live is a 24 hour WordPress virtual conference to help promote the open-source operating system and mental health in the…

Not Sure What To Title This
That’s always a great way to start a blog post. 🤣 This past weekend as you can see from my last post, was a tough one. Johnny’s death hit me harder than I thought it would. 😥 He’s my age and has young kids. I guess that played a part in how down in the…

I’m Mourning
A good friend’s husband just passed from brain cancer. He was around my age (~40). He left behind a wife, 3 young kids, and a wonderful dog. My heart aches for my friend and her kids. I just found out this morning. Her husband has been battling brain cancer for years. And has put up…

Minecraft… An Escape
I belong to a great community of techy-type people called Indy Hall. I’ve known about the community since 2010 and it’s been around since 2006. It’s one of the first co-working spots in the US if not the World. Since the Covid-19 pandemic started last year (2020), the community has been a great place for…

The Pandemic Is Still Real… Still Here In Full Force
I saw this about Covid-19’s resurgence in the most populous states in the United States on LinkedIn. This is not a political issue. Heck it’s being talked about widely on the biggest business social network. It’s a health issue. It’s about our health. There is no vaccine for Covid-19. There isn’t even a good treatment…
