The late Dr. Randy Pausch gave this great lecture back in 2007. Take the hour and 15 minutes to watch it or go out and get the book and read it. http://www.youtube.com/watch_popup?v=ji5_MqicxSo http://www.thelastlecture.com/
I'm still around, but I have been fairly distracted lately. My attempts to establish a workout routine have been somewhat successful, but then again, an always changing schedule makes it hard to stick to. With some nice warm weather occurring lately...
And, of course (even though it is a commercial it still is one of the all-time best...): The world is just awesome. Do something nice for it today...
I always think of people being basically good, until proven otherwise. Perhaps that's naive, foolish, or worse, but I find that it works for me, even if I get a little bit bruised occasionally for giving someone the benefit of the doubt. More often...
Saturday evening, after dinner and helping get the kids all settled in, I walked to OG for a special fundraiser evening . I mostly went because I wanted to see what the place was like jam-packed, and it did not disappoint. They were raffling off some...
I usually keep the matter on this blog pretty thin on the personal details, but this is kind of interesting and personal. When we we started trying to make our little family, there was a period where things didn't just happen. We sought medical advice...
As I am (for like the thousandth time) trying to again drop some poundage and get myself into a healthier fitness level, I am astounded by stories of people achieving outrageous physical feats, through their determination and hard work. http://www.cnn...

Those of you who visit the site occasionally, and venture further than this front page will notice some changes. I have updated the site to the newest version of Community Server. I had some kinks earlier today (images/avatars not showing) but I think...
I haven't referenced an old Sesame Street here on the blog in a while. This one is pretty bittersweet. I remember watching this episode way back when. Pretty amazing. Now that I have my own kids I have an even greater appreciation for just how incredible...
Last night while Josh and I were mellowing between the time when Caleb headed to bed and the time when Josh had to hit the sack, he told me he thought he would become a philoposer. I asked him what that was. He said "you know, Dad, in ancient Greece...
The last week in Southeast Michigan (away from the major urban centers) has been cold. Temperatures just barely getting above 0F during the day, overnight, dipping down to the -15F range. Hopefully we're about to snap that streak, but it has been...
...and to all a good night! (The kids aren't yet nestled, but, soon, soon...)
http://www.survivalstraps.com/survivalbracelets.html These are cool -- rugged bracelets made from 550lb. paracord. Not that I find myself in need of 20 feet of paracord very frequently, but if I ever did, this would be a good way to make sure I had it...
