Change/Follows/Learning
Emdt student Kevin Hayes created this video with the catch phrase: “If what you learn doesn’t change what you do, then why you learnin’ it?” Kevin is a very committed believer and has shared the connection he feels between his beliefs and his actions. There’s something amazingly simple and powerful in this. And in his …
Am I Lazy, Overly Cautious or Just Picky?
Coming back from a presentation I commented on this beautiful park and lake we were driving past. A buddy in the car said that the park was also a great place to meet girls and offered to loan me one of his dogs ’cause “girls love dogs.” I just thought that the park was a …
Let’s Be Friends… For Now
I visited my e-Harmony profile today. It’s been awhile.

1st Storm of the Season(?)
Good-bye fair weather, you were wonderful. My opened windows will miss you and your cool breezy ways, for our old musty friend, the afternoon showers seems to be making it’s noisy, moist return.
The Lie of the 4th Screen
The following video was brought to my attention by a coworker as we both love watching stuff being presented at the TED conference. Alas, this video continues what I believe is a false cultural perception about the increasing general dehumanizing nature of technology. Admittedly it needs to be a bit bias, it’s a Nokia ad. …
Everyone Wears a Uniform @ Friendly Confines
Not a great photo and not even close to showing the percentage of people who come to Friendly Confines sporting their favorite team uniforms. It’s also evident in the noise level and shouting and cheering how many partisans are in attendance. Go Bears! er… I mean Dolphins! jbb
