Please notice if you will the No Spitting sign. This sign along with the ones that tell people to obey traffic laws are money wasted on signage.

A Special Mirror

I was out this weekend, doing something I haven’t done in while, but used to do a heck of a lot – nightlife in NYC. Yeah, as I hone into 39, some of this is just normal changes in taste, I suppose. It feels good to be in bed at midnight! If you recall, your [...]

Fall Hike and Climb in the Maine Woods

It was a last minute idea, hiking in Katahdin in October can be iffy. In the history of us doing these treks we have had every weather state from freezing snow to bright sunshine, but it is always worth a shot as the hikes are not too long, so even in the rain, it is [...]

West Point @ 30°F

Up to some old tricks this weekend up at West Point sport climbing wall. Jim, Paul and I braved the cold and got in a bunch of climbs. Some 5.8′s were lead by all! Well, maybe not Jim, he isn’t to into leading, but you get the idea.

Know the Code awaits your arrival!

Another Awesome Day @ The Gunks

What is there to say? Low 60′s, fall, pals, and The Trapps = a couple trad climbs that scared me, some good runs cleaning up, and a slab problem from hell, aka Pebbles. You can check out all the photos from climbing in The Gunks this fall as well.

I have to really report that jumping into this sport [...]

Tablemania Life Hacks

I was asked today about some of the ways that I help organize and run my life. I will start by saying that all of this is my opinion and my interpretation, so you will more than likely disagree, which is part of the fun.

I would consider myself an early adopter – I had [...]

Rocks & More Rocks!

Yeah so for those of you who know me, 2011 has been a bit if a rough year. As you might have noticed, I have not been writing all that much, and my travels have been cut down. There are so many cliches that can be spoken that it just seems silly to even [...]

Suddenly A Collection of Fetishes

I want to start by saying this post is about Zuni or Zuni style fetishes, so calm down a little

My father has traveled a lot in the Southwest and on one of his trips he brought be back a really neat black marble bear. According to a book I bought about the history [...]

Why Focus on Process?

If you are taking a moment to read this short blog post, you might want to first detour out of here to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incident_command_system.

Ok, back? That is the nearly universal Incident Command System and most anyone schooled in the area of rescue, search, disaster management, etc… will be familiar with it. My first exposure to [...]

Matteo Update

As you may recall, I have had an ordeal with my Ducati 749 Dark starting from the time when I bought it. You can read my frustration in a post when I was essentially giving up on the bike after it being molested, raped and abused by Corsa Motor Sports in SoHo.

I have since [...]

Starting Point in Teaching PMO Processes

The primary issue being how do you create a very domain specific document for people who are not immersed in the domain? To that end I have created a this diagram. It is impossible to intrudice a domain without domain language, if this is so new to you that you are lost, please drop me [...]

Who Should I Vote For?

I have been listening to the pure bull pucky of the Republican presidential candidates and combining this with the things I sincerely dislike about the the Progressives and the pretend Democrat Obama and this has resulted in two sentiments.

First, anyone who compromises their speech for the sake of electability is traitor to his or [...]

Crinoid Hitchhikers

Yesterday was a stay home and work on aquaDRAMA day. I replaced one of the current regulators, cleaned out a few things, tested all the pumps, installed a doser and did other general maintenance. When I was all done it was late and the lighting was turned off. I took a peak in the tank [...]

Kushner’s “The Guide”

For those who do not know me, I will start with a little background. I am not generally a theater person. I tend to like serious plays when I do go. To actively go, something has to catch my attention. I do know who Kushner, Mamet and Stoppard are. However, I deem knowing who these [...]
