...my Rice friends conspired to start writing in their blogs again. What a refreshing surprise. 2 of 'em wiped the slate clean and started over from scratch. I haven't dared to check to see if their old stuff was google-cached; it's too sad to have

Through the magic of Tivo, I watched the first two episodes of the very riveting Cirque du Soleil documentary mini-series, The Fire Within which debuted this week. This series shows us the 6-12 months prior to leading up to the launch of Cirque’s latest show, Verekai (launched summer last

Here we go. This is the prototype of the Brainstorm Table interface I had written way back in October. It’s gone light years from this stage to now. (I’m going to post quite a bit of stuff re: Project progress in the upcoming weeks as part of the

So the bold thing I did today was put aside my self-consciousness, go out in public on errands and to a meeting, and vamp with my new bag. I like it. It’s just the right size. Right now, it’s carrying my sketch book, a pen/pencil/highlighter trio

Here is some interesting stuff to check out from a mailing list I'm on (for ex-Sceint folks). PMI courses are offered at St. Ed's in Austin and I've seriously considered taking them and going for certification (which requires 3000+ hours of PM experience.... That&

New Year's is rapidly approaching, but there is no time like the present to put down some resolutions (that I'm painfully noting as necessary as I track my energy levels and food and exercise "habits" while beating a dead horse trying to install the

I've had this list of Bookmarks (for websites and things) that I've successfully passed along from platform to platform and browser to browser for some years, now. Needless to say, there are a myriad of links... While I have some minimal organization, it's time
