https://youtu.be/6hradnkP5bk America’s digital goddess has been around since the beginning of the personal computer revolution. Her she is in 1990s explaining what a computer is.

Giving Aphrodite a run for her rubies would have been easy for you, you are, after all, a postmodern sex goddess. I tried to penetrate the day, but the hours skipped ahead somehow removed from where we sat watching reruns of the Real World. I thought about Puck. Where did he go after the show?…

1 I’ve been in a kind of holding pattern over the last several days as I process all the words I’ve been reading about content curation and blogging and the state of blogging in general. I’m gearing up of course for another crack at this blogging thing as a central point of contact on the…

I’m prepping for an upcoming leadership symposium at Wright Hassall that I’m co-facilitating with the brilliant Andy Chandler. Rummaging through Steve Radcliffe’s book Leadership: Plain and Simple, I stumbled upon these two questions that Radcliffe says are essential to leadership: What do you care about? and What do you want to lead for? During my…
“Space travel was once the communal dream and subsequent reality of 1960s. Fifty years ago, the Saturn V blasted off from the Kennedy Space Center and landed the first men on the moon.” It was a dark day. I was lying in bed recovering from emergency surgery from a cat bite. Cat bite?! Yeah I…
I have to confess, I struggled with this one. Amber Guyger was justified in shooting black man, Dallas ex-police chief says. I’d have to say this ex-police dude is totally wrong.
