Yep, I’m in there. The only way Fast Company would ever show a photo of me is to illustrate a point about the value of Jeffrey Zeldman by displaying a group shot of silly web dorks in blue hats (see me, right there…in a cartoon blue hat nonetheless).

Pit Bull Myths
I just found this post in my drafts from July of 2007…weird. I’m going to go ahead and post it with a current date (and a few updates).
Pit Bull advocate links:
[original post] I’m a big fan of pit bulls. They’re the most intelligent, loyal, sweet animals I’ve ever come across . I have 2 of them, and I live in mortal terror that some moronic jackass is going to steal them for fighting (it’s common around here) even though I’m pretty sure they’d both be so busy trying to play with the other dog they’d get killed in 30 seconds.
It’s been on my mind a lot lately with the Vick indictment. Anyway, found this on YouTube and it made me cry.
1 yr older and deeper in debt…
I just realized this blog is now a year old. I don’t post enough! I have so much to say about being a full time student, employee, active web geek, having a family, house, life, interests, hobbies…but with all that I don’t have time to talk about it.
current site addiction
Gonna post it in my links too, but check out www.woot.com. I LOVE this site!
deceleration of independence
A random question from a long-time client, colleague, and mentor of mine led me to the blog of Scott Berkun who is apparently someone right up my alley, professionally speaking. The thing that caught my eye was a blog entry on Independence Day, you know, July 4th…fireworks and sweaty guys manning grills sporting tank tops and stupid Statue of Liberty hats while perpetually grasping a “cold one”. It occurred to me as I read it that I’ve not really stopped and given a lot of thought to the holiday, even in light of the last several years.
