Musings on Education, Technology, Pop Culture, Religion & Staying Curious
I’ve been an e-Harmony member long enough that I’m beginning to wonder if I might be eligible for some prize, just for hanging in there so long. It’s that old adage: the older I get the pickier I get and the less marketable I get. No fun. Actually it’s not that bad. Occasionally someone will [...]
I have these two wonderful friends, Dan and Terri, who are always looking out for my happiness. They’re a young happily married couple, any two of which is an oddity these days and whenever we go out they’re always looking for a woman for me. It’s very endearing to me. So, several weeks ago, knowing [...]
I was thinking about writing something about my ongoing experiences with e-Harmony. Then I saw the following Onion video. It pretty much sums it up (though I hope that my conversations have more depth than this poor soul’s)…
Decided to get off my ass and do something about the world at large and volunteered to spend my Saturday helping the Obama campaign. In this case I went down to the local O office and then went out and knocked some doors. I was under the impression that I had twittered the whole time, [...]
I wrote some time ago about the Curse of Digitally Enhanced Memories because it has a tendency of painfully pointing out how I seem to make the same relationship mistakes time after time. As if that weren’t bad enough, I have recordings from a former “Christian musician” life that most of my current friends would [...]
I need to be a bit more careful about the blog. I mean, I’ve been known to vent a bit and cause more than a few hurt feelings from said ventings. Alas, I met another Full Sail department director today who was familiar with the blog. Well, he was familiar because they have an app [...]
Today I went to lunch with my dear friend Kathy and she asked me how the e-Harmony thing was going. The discussion prompted the following note: Remember me talking about there being hundreds of closed matches. Tonight I checked the numbers and it turns out that since beginning this little e-Harmony journey three years ago [...]
It’s time. Some might say that it’s long past time. I turned in the final grades for my first class here at Full Sail. I wrote a script for and then did an audio podcast/interview for another course director. Then checked into Second Life to monitor students coming in looking for assistance with the new [...]
I was hanging out with friends Saturday night, typical night out downtown with the gang, having a few brewskies, some fondue, a little friendly game of Trivial Pursuit. I was the designated “fifth wheel” so I decided to be the judge of the match between a co-worker, her husband and another coworker and his roommate. [...]
Sunday night football @ mellow mushroom. There’s a presentation for the peace film festival down the street I was thinking of going to which starts in five-minutes. But I have over 1/3 of a beer left and I’d rather not rush it. Cute barmaid is on the stool side of the bar but she has [...]
