Adventures in Bitcoin
Last week, I spent some time with my pal and her sister in Washington DC. We had a great time visiting different sites, and at the end of the day, I looked at my phone and checked my Coinbase exchange positions (as one does). I let out a sigh. "Well, I totally missed Bitcoin's price recovery,"...
Write a letter to the board
I recently sat on a promotion board. Everyone in the military says that at some point, you should sit on a promotion board — and with good reason. The handful of times I’ve acted as a gatekeeper have been enlightening both as an evaluation writer and as a person subject to gatekeeping forces. It’s like meeting...
“T Minus AI” and those annoying little tasks
I’ve been thinking a lot about AI lately. I was at the gym a few weeks ago and tuned-in to a podcast in which the bonus episode was an interview with Guy Kawasaki. I didn’t know who Guy Kawasaki was but learned that he’s one of those Silicon Valley entrepreneurs with the word ‘evangelist’ in...
“Virtual Society“ and Demand for Experiences
Happy 2024! I started off the year with a flu following our trip to Colombia so my 2024 has been off to a slow start. But I’m all good now which is fortunate because things are in full swing now, as I’m sure they are for you, with work, school, sports, projects, etc., etc. Who...
My Surprise at the Author Event and More Travel Reading

“The Zahir” and an Audible for the Halloween Season
Happy October! I hope you all are looking forward to fall as much as I am. For one thing it’s starting to cool down here in Florida, which is something we Florida people look forward to at this point in the year. Plus, it means Halloween is around the corner. I got my decorations out...
‘Chasing Chaos’ and Those Gently Used Items
Now that the school year is back in full swing the sports season is upon us, which means that outside of working hours I’m either driving to a practice, watching a practice, or driving back from a practice. On weekends it’s the same thing except it’s games. I’ve never watched so much sports in my...
