A sign of the Apocalypse?

The end is near!!! Our local (Austin) KrispyKreme is now selling kolaches! You know - the meat and cheese stuffed breakfast items… I wonder if they come down the conveyor belt and fall softly into the gooey icing? Now serving…

What About The Internet?

The research began after a long, thought provoking weekend during which I attended Seattle’s Gay Pride Parade and began to rethink how I feel about a lot of things. I began to root around a little for explanations and theories about Christianity and homosexuality. And this is what I found:

BASEBALL MOJO

If you haven’t believed in Baseball mojo/karma before, you may now go ahead and believe. The Yankees have won only one game since my post about them still being in the hunt. It’s totally my fault, along with everyone else who started talking smack too…

Happy 2 Year Blog Birthday

Somehow it snuck up on me and happened again. Today is 2 years after my first blog post.

 

I have to admit that this year wasn’t nearly as active as my first. There’ve been a number of other priorities in my life lately. However, the value of the blogging I’m doing and have done in the past continues to pay dividends. Having a regular blog has absolutely been worth the investment of my time.

 

Another friend of mine, Jason Alba the Founder and CEO of JibberJobber.com, just celebrated his first blog birthday in the last few days. He is doing a really cool series on his blog about the secrets he’s learned after blogging every business day for 1 year. It’s a great series, and he’s only up to Day 2 of the 5 Day series. Jason is another person who came into my life and network because of my blog. I’ll tell you more about JibberJobber next week, it’s also an excellent resource.  

 

I guess I should go eat some cake?

 

Happy Networking!
