A few quotes that have my attention today.  The first an from  an old, dead, smart Greek guys.  The middle on from an old, dead, smart nun. The last one from an old, alive, smart (but scary) American guy: And what is my sort? you will ask. I am one of those who are very willing…

  (Note: I had every intention of getting this post out on “Tax Day”, which of course is not today…life got in the way, but I think it’s interesting enough to still post today…the “Day After”) I was admittedly a little grumpy today.  For a second year in a year in a row I owed…

Although it hasn’t gotten nearly the media coverage it deserves, most everyone is at least somewhat aware of what’s been going on in Nevada between Rancher Cliven Bundy and the BLM.  If you’re not part of the almost, the short version is that the BLM claimed that Rancher Bundy’s cattle was grazing on “their” land…

Not an in depth post today, but it’s been about a week since I dove back into the bitcoin pool so I thought I would quickly chronicle what I’ve done and what I plan to do next. Bitcoin related stuff that I’ve done in the past week: I finally read the original whitepaper.  I understood…

As a natural consequence of  trying my best to lead an online marketing team as my day job, being generally interested in all things tech and just being a nice guy, I get asked quite often to help people with their websites.  Sometimes its simply taking a look and making some suggestions, other times they…

I first heard about Porcfest a year ago or so on the Bad Quaker podcast.  Flash forward a year and I’m going to head up there for a few days in June.  Not sure what it’s all about, but I don’t think I’ll know unless I actually go, so I’m going. Turns out the guy…

I just missed signing up for an IFTF event on crypto currency (but the event videos look like they will be posted next week).  Just flipped through this slideshare deck from one of the presenters and saw a few interesting topics (specifically the “green” aspect of crypto currency vs. physical currency) and some points I…
