What a wonderful night.  I know that the post on Barack Obama’s campaign website is thanking those who have voted for him, but I also have to say Thank You to President-Elect Obama.  Thank you for inspring me to volunteer, to give, to participate in this movement.  Thank you for lifting up the voices of [...]

The book of Job has long been used as a book to try to explain the problem of why bad things happen to good people or why evil exists, etc. The story begins with the telling of a “bet” between God and Satan about a man named Job. Job was by all accounts [...]

I have connected deeply with Michael Wesch’s work at Kansas State University. He has put together some marvelous work on the ways that students learn (or don’t learn) today and the ways that the educational system is not meeting students where they are at. On his blog, he recently posted a re-visiting of [...]

Its been a bit of a while since my last post here, but that’s largely because of the crazy amount of transition going on in my life right now.  In the last week (amazing that its just been that long), I was officially extended a call (aka “getting a job” in terms other than how [...]

I came across this article the other day and it got me thinking about Star Wars.  The question is an interesting one.  When did Star Wars die for me?  While this website does have a bit of a Star Wars flair, the question did get me thinking.  Go back about 10-15 years and I have [...]

As he often does, my friend Drew got me thinking this morning with a blog post. He is reflecting upon some of the pieces of Sarah Palin’s interview with Charles Gibson tonight on 20/20.  I have not seen the interview as yet (although the Tivo is set to record) and I have only seen a [...]

As if I needed another reason to vote for Obama…He came out after Sen. Biden’s terrific acceptance speech and began to talk about how the convention has gone.  Sen. Obama accurately highlighted the strong (bordering on spectacular) speeches by Michelle Obama, Hillary Clinton, and Bill Clinton (although he did leave out Kucinich’s stunning “Wake Up [...]

Wow - what a great weekend I have ahead of me…
Thursday Night - Barack Obama’s acceptance speech at Invesco Field Mile High Stadium.

I am seriously excited about Thursday night.  This is the first time in my life that I have either volunteered (I networked the printers wirelessly in his SD campaign office) for and [...]

My buddy Drew posted this earlier today and it got me thinking a bit about what albums I’d bring along.  Of course, this is all a moot point since taking 5 albums along would be bigger than taking my ipod along, but that’s beside the point.  I guess the five that I would bring along [...]

Ok - I did this a while ago and I’m doing it again.  I have bolted from wordpress.com and have this hosted on its own.  As a result, I can finally use my own themes, customization, etc.  But that means that we’ll be working on design, etc for a while.
Ok been playing around a bit [...]
