Since I was trapped for over an hour on the tarmac in Detroit awaiting our ground crew (which totally wiped out our early arrival from Duluth), I actually looked at EVERY SINGLE PAGE of the Sky Mall magaine in the seat pocket in front of me. It was a fun mix of all kinds of…

Digitally Dabbling
On a break between sessions and this GQ (Google Quotient) survey caught my eye. Thought I would check out my brand distinction on the web. Seems pretty accurate, a lot of what I do is digtally dabble. <grin> From the survey: Online Identity Calculator (beta) Your online identity score is 7.3 out of a possible…

Site in Asheville – Drhumor building
On my walking around yesterday, we passed this building. I was amused by the name….Dr. Humor. Since my brother is Dr. Tastegood, I thought this might be his new name.

Farewell Mr. Wizard
My heart is saddened to learn that Mr. Wizard died yesterday. Of course, I grew up watching his show. It was a far cry from the edu-tainment we have today ala Bill Nye the Science Guy and Beakman (I love both of them, too). He was much more serious with his approach but it was…
