It’s easy to lose The Game. In fact, you can lose The Game the very same second you understand exactly how to play it. I did. The Game is everywhere, and some people are so upset by constantly losing, they write angry emails to bloggers detailing how hurt they are over people even posting anything […]

The last year and a half has been quite stressful for me. Too many projects both personal and professional have overlapped and are slowly sapping my will to live. When I start to feel that old familiar burn-out feeling and productivity starts hitting rock bottom, the one thing I do to get by (aside from […]

For Christmas this year, instead of buying presents, Jenny and I took our families to Las Vegas for a few days. We figured a fun trip to a warm place would be better than battling holiday shoppers to buy everyone some gift that would most likely be re-gifted or sit unused 99% of the time. […]

A few years ago I attended the second ever Seattle Mind Camp v2.0, and I have to say I was pretty happy to be in the presence of a lot of interesting, intelligent, local people. There was a lot going on; I gave an impromptu talk on RFID implants, attended several unconference meetings, and even […]

It was the early 80s and I was in second grade. I went to a school way out in the sticks called Trafton Elementary, which was a classic early 1900s white box with 4 classrooms (1st grade – 4th grade) and a bell on top to call the kids in from recess. To give you […]
