On occasion, there are some of us who rise above the rest. Almost always it is directly related to our willingness to do what is right, often when no one else is willing to do the same. When faced with a really tough decision, or against overwhelming odds, or just standing up alone against the…
Diff’rent Strokes: Two Mr. Ts
You have probably heard by now that actor Gary Coleman died yesterday from injuries he sustained to his head from a fall. We had recently been reacquainted with Coleman as one of the ball players in the movie Church Ball (now one of our son Ian’s favorite movies!) but of course Coleman is most known…
PopTarts Rewards
Ahh, PopTarts… the great American breakfast treat! 🙂 Jen purchased a box of Apple Strudel PopTarts for me last night, and this morning when we looked at the box, we noticed a little promotion they have going currently called PopTarts Rewards. Apparently they are wanting (needing?) people to try all of their flavors. The incentive…

According to MacDailyNews.com, Apple may make their $99/year MobileMe service a completely free service in the near future. They reported the following on May 7th: We have received a tip that we cannot confirm, hence our “RUMOR” designation, that nonetheless has at least an air of credibility about it that says, “Apple is planning to…
NHL Top and Bottom
Well, not really bottom, but I’ve just been thinking how strange (and, in a way, cool) it is that while the Western Conference finals features the two teams who finished first and second in 2009-2010, the Eastern Conference finals are upside down, featuring the #7 and #8 seeds, both of whom were questionable to even…
Economic Turnaround? Eliminate Fuel Taxes.

(In fact, I realize that there’s absolutely no way we can actually “recover” from our debt without a seriously radical change in thinking regarding cashflow, in and out… but that’s a different…
TomTom Vader
For anyone who has a TomTom GPS thingie (my parents, for example) you now have the ability to be guided to your destination by Darth Vader (or master Yoda, I believe…) And who wouldn’t want that? 🙂 The video above is a “behind the scenes” look at the recording session with Lord Vader… good stuff….
Some Fun Campbell Kid Moments
It’s been far too long here at GregsHead.net since I have posted any brief anecdotal tales from the daily life of the Campbell family. That used to be a regular occurrence, I think before there were so many sources for the humorous anecdotes… 🙂 But there are a few recent ones that I would like…
Sunday Morning
Our friend Marie showed us this video tonight. If you’ve ever had any part in the planning and execution of a local Sunday morning “show” … I think you’ll get a few laughs from this video, too. 🙂 Enjoy!
Desegmentation
Have you noticed how compartmentalized we tend to view life? While there certainly is truth to the “time and a place for everything” there is also the truth to “in everything moderation.” But for whatever reason (honestly, I would like to investigate this further and discover the root cause or causes) there is a very…
