I’ve always liked the quote, “life is a journey.” Canon’s play on words in one of its commercial series makes me revisit it time and again. Photography is a journey. I wish I could find my favorite commerical of the series, but alas, this one will have to do: Where do your photographs take […]
Anyway you slice it, it sounds silly. And yes, I still feel silly explaining and getting excited about things like “Tweeter” (how all my coworkers pronounce it) and this crazy thing called “Facebook Connect”.
Every time we go live with a major change I question why large corporations are moronic. The easy answer? Corporations are so caught up in “processes” and “forms” that they forget the backbone of their business. In the past three years, I’ve watched a lot of programs launch.

– Plane Tickets: $987 – Hotels: $830 – Taxis: $130 Making the same mistake twice? $1,947 Hopefully, I won’t be dumb enough to make the same mistake a third time.
Every feel like this about the person you’re currently dating? Never settle… always wait for the butterflies 🙂
Mark my words, Michael Phelps will not compete in the 2012 Olympics. With his fiasco this week, I’ve been thinking a lot about this. I’m still struggling with the decision but, from one swimmer to another here’s why: He’s out of college. Swimming after college is hard. Period. During college, you have a daily schedule, […]
