I’m not a fan of the band Toto. Their song Africa is an 80’s anthem, ranking #492 on Rolling Stone’s 500 greatest songs of all time. It’s not that high on my list, but like most creative endeavors, it’s subjective. If you get to the bottom of this week’s list, you’ll find a gem of […]
Happy February. It’s over. We’ve got a slew of really long months ahead. We’ve got no real holidays (in the US) to speak of until Memorial Day in late May. I’m not trying to bum you out. This is a reality check. If you can, take a moment to book a few days off. All […]
It’s too late to get into writing mode. I’ll leave you all with a fun batch of links. I am trying to mix it up–but sometimes it’s easier said than done.

It’s been a weird week or two. Up and down, highs and lows, with some old friends and new colleagues–all over the map. This isn’t bad, it’s just a confluence of events hitting at once. Mostly, it’s interesting and a good vantage point for reflection. I’m trying to take it all in and enjoy the […]
I don’t know what happened to the first month of 2024. If the rest of this year goes by at this speed I don’t know how I’ll keep up. As usual, I’ll keep plugging away–enjoy the links.

2024 is off and running. I’ve been trying to get off on a good foot with some changes to my routine. So far this hasn’t gone to plan. Last week, my weekly post had the wrong date. It’s not a big deal, but not ideal. My attempt to do “100 Days of Code” isn’t going […]
Welcome to 2024. Everything is new. Everything is the same. Usually, at this time of year, I’d switch things up. Reformat the posts, change the intro structure, or add/remove some element(s). Not in 2024, nope, it’s not going down that way this year. At least, not right now. I can’t say what will happen tomorrow, […]
It’s been a year. Maybe not as hectic as the last few, but it’s been trying for me. I have many talented friends who aren’t employed, there are still layoffs happening, and next year doesn’t look any calmer with ongoing wars and a US election coming. I’m thankful for the good people in my life. […]

Thanks to those who supported my week off. It’s pretty amazing that some of you are paying attention and even reached out in support of the break. In a little nod to the season, I’d like to share a few links to my friends and colleagues who create cool things that you all may enjoy. […]
