This year was interesting because 2 Darth Vaders came back to the light side for me.
After an incident more than 5 years ago over DSL that had me trying to get the FCC to take notice, Verizon showed up at my house with FIOS. Even though the DVR is crap compared to TiVo, overall I’ve […]

I’m doing the year end housecleaning today. If you are one of those freaky observant people you may have noticed the new subscription icons in the column on the left.
If you are not already a blog subscriber you must go to Google Reader now and start using it. It’s like an Outlook inbox for web […]

As I start my “Year in Review” process, there are some things that I wanted to take note of things I’ve found this year that I’m thankful for. I give you: The Ronis!
Best Blog - Curt Schilling’s 38 Pitches is the coolest thing in baseball. Real-time in-depth commentary from a guy in the game. Check […]

Looking back on 2007 I think the best person I met was Chip Griffin. He’s doing some cool stuff and is a real entrepreneur.
He just posted talking about Snack Media and I think he’s being far too polite. I think there’s been way too much hype over the past 5 years about the acceleration of […]

I’m starting to wireframe the architecture for a lead management system. I think I’ve got three legs to the stool - Salesforce.com, our website, and our marketing automation tool. 2008 is shaping up to be very interesting, I’m really looking forward to it.
In other random news I finally upgraded my Palm Treo 600 to a […]

One podcast that has been on my subscription list forever is Manager Tools. I’ve been fortunate enough to experience managing some great teams and have had over 100 people under me in the org. chart, but I still get something worthwhile out of every episode.
They had a recent cast about schedule management and I realized […]

The good news is that the holiday shopping is done and all the paperwork is signed and sealed for the Mortgage refinance. Gee, and only 10pm at night!
It goes without saying, I’ve got nothing for you but we can thank YouTube for preserving absurd humor…

So there was no M Show this week, in short I am drowning in holiday BS. Between last minute gift buying, two snowstorms that took a good 7 hours out of my work week, and normal “everybody trying to get that last deal closed for year end” I haven’t had any time to catch up […]

I spent 3 hours in my car on Thursday after the snow started on a trip that should have been 25 minutes.
That’s why I haven’t posted much in the past couple of days, that screwed up both Thursday and Friday, I’ve been running around like a maniac. I then slept most of Saturday, finally getting […]
