I was listening to a podcast from NASA the other day that described a recent photo session from a satellite in a synchronous orbit around the sun, 1 million miles behind the earth. They had captured the moon passing in front of the sun, except, since it was 1,000,000 miles away, the moon was a…

Lunar Eclipse March 3rd
Saw this come across my desktop today, and wanted to share. I’m a huge fan of things that happen outside of our atmosphere… this should be pretty cool. Check the page below for the story and a map of when and where to watch 🙂 NASA – March 3, 2007, Lunar Eclipse
Group Think
If you know me in the slightest, you know that I am not at all the political sort. When I was at Michigan State, almost 15 years ago now, we lived in suites (two rooms shared a common bathroom). One of the guys in the other suite connected to mine was a super, duper, dee-duper…
They
I was privy to a conversation recently where a very benign little pronoun grabbed my attention. They. Simple enough. Harmless enough. But something about the way it was being used was bothering me. The context of the situation was quite harmless itself. The conversation had turned to a young college graduate who was embarking on…
Motivated
I’m sitting on my front porch right now, with a cup of Chai, and my PowerBook, getting ready to write a basic enews and do a few updates to the basic website, and I am currently being entertained by the elementary kids trying to run a mile around the track that is across the street…
Look out!
I think there might be a blog explosion today. Just wanted to warn you. It’s been quite around here in blogland, and that’s because there have been a multitude of other things going on… which will likely be the content of several posts today… but anyway, just wanted to let you know 🙂 Stay tuned……
Alex Campbell: 5 on the 5th

Falling On Deaf Ears
Saturday morning I had set my alarm for somewhere around 7:55am, which gave me just enough time to wake myself up and head out the door by 8:30am to help a friend with his home remodeling project. When I went to bed (and even moreso when my alarm went off in the morning) I really…
I’m Back
Well, after seven days out of the office, I am back here, sitting at my desk with a dozen or so voicemail messages and 100 emails to answer. I already weeded out the spam, newsletters, advertisements, etc… Isn’t that the fun part of going on vacation?? 🙂 No, that’s not. But I must say that…
Vacating
I have been on vacation since Tuesday of this week and let me tell you, it has been fantastic! We came down to Dayton, OH area to visit with my parents, and attend our 10-year college reunion in Cincinnati. I also made sure to tell me clients I would not be in the office till…
