A True Newscasting Legend Retires!
Growing up in the Philadelphia area, you’d be had pressed not to know who this guy is. Jim Gardner anchored the 6 and 11pm news on 6 ABC News for so many years. 45 years total at the station. So many of us in the 80’s and 90’s, before cable, would watch the news anchored…

Own The Platform
If you don’t own your presence online, what is happening over at Twitter can happen to you. You’re site can be taken down without any warning and you’re pretty much SOL. Mastodon and the Fediverse as a whole is great this way. Even if you don’t own the instance, you can move your followers to…

To Vermont I Go
I’m finally getting a chance to take a solo trip. Albeit to visit my parents at their home in Weston, VT. Still it’s going to give me a brief break from the craziness at home. Aside from the 5+ hour drive to get there, I seriously can’t wait. I’ll post photos from my travels when…

While Mommy Is Away The Boys Will Play
So my lovely and amazing wife is in Sedona on a girls trip. This has me home with the 9yo son. We’re going to have fun. But I have to admit I was apprehensive at first, because we argue like two male hamsters. So far so good though. Last night we got sushi! I of…

My Son Now Wants To Podcast!
I’m a very happy father. My 9 year-old son just started a blog and wants to learn more about WordPress. Now he’s intrigued about Podcasting. I’ve created a creator-monster. It’s really cute. We were listening to a podcast on the way to school this morning and he said, “Daddy, can I do a podcast?” To…

Remembering September 11… 20 Years Ago Today
I was going to write my thoughts down in my private journal, but I realized I wanted to share my thoughts publicly. I remember 9/11/01 like it was yesterday. I, like many, can photo-realistically replay the day over and over like a movie in my head. I can’t believe it’s been 20 years. It was…

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…
