At one point in the last couple years I made any active decision to rarely, if ever, speak to someone sitting beside me on an airplane. Why? I can’t honestly say exactly why other than the chances of meeting someone I like or have a rapport with is, well, extremely low. So, why expend the […]
The High Level
Oh, how I hope to be able to use this some day.
I want to compete in the Olympics
I just finished reading the ESPN article on Becky Hammon playing for Russia instead of the United States women’s basketball team. Personally, I don’t see any problem with Becky strapping it up for the Russians – them blowing through Georgia is another matter – but this riff is about participating in the Olympics. I’m so […]

[quick background for those of you reading this from afar: WVU, my alma-mater, has a really good football team (Grid iron, Rugby 2.0, pick a […]
Mad TV: Future of Airline Travel
Ya Focus
Wow, Yahoo couldn’t produce interesting, cutting edge services or compete with Google when their entire focus was on creating an unworkable company running their business. Now what happens? Word on the street is that next week they’re launching a service where people can post whatever their doing at any moment. […]
