We’ve turned a corner on getting the tax returns done. We’re done to just a few left. Unfortunately, they’re some of the tougher returns. All of us took a break for a few days after the big deadline and are now working hard to get these done. The weather has cleared up too and yeah, I’m back…
For a change of pace, we are having a pop quiz to see how many urban myths you can identify as false. There are three questions here, and a bonus question at the end. Ready? Here we go! Now that the garden is down, does it still require extensive guarding from danger? Very good! For the second…
Ten years ago today, I called my sister early to wish her a Happy Birthday. We had a wonderful call, then I went back to work. A few minutes later, a terrorist event began on U.S. soil that was like a script from the Twilight Zone, complete with special effects that were unfortunately too real.…

What would be a billion in my life? Certainly the financial statements that I work with as part of my job. Many of those numbers have a billion in the name. But I strongly suspect that my laptop has over a billion in pixels with all the photos that I have stored on it. Yes,…
My favorite boy toy is a fine art photographer and he does superb work. He started doing it during the days of film when each shot was expensive. He uses a tripod to ensure each shot is as perfect as he can get it with each and every click. I don’t. I’m of the hand hold…
As I’m taking my daily photographs, it’s hard on some days to work around the dull skies that seem so pervasive this spring.
