It’s been an interesting month. I’ve been trying to unpack all that’s happened, and convert that into something resembling eloquent written reflection, but I’m realizing that’s a pipe dream. For now, at least.
As I sit here at my desk on a late Saturday night, watching another wildly improbable Braves comeback (in Denver, of all places), I can only muster a few...

The Braves, Braves Fans, and Facepalming
Four-game losing streaks are ugly. But “0-4” is infinitely more ugly.
So here we are, just four games into baseball’s 162-game marathon, and the apocalypse has come and gone. Or, at least, you would feel that way if you talked to a Braves fan.
It doesn’t help that the four losses have come against the Mets and the Astros, the consensus picks as the worst teams in the NL....

Christians and the Needy (and everyone else)
This may seem like an anti-Rick Warren post. It’s not, I promise. This may seem like a partisan-politics post. It’s not, I promise.

The computing world is at a crossroads, and it’s going to get awkward.

Opportunity
I’ve never been an overly ambitious person.
I know that will surprise some people, with my overwhelmingly fiery nature.
(Sarcasm notation needed)
In grade school, I was never driven by anything in particular, except perhaps the expectation that I was supposed to do well. In college, I never had any dreams of achieving great success during or after my studies, save for a stretch where I...

Sharing: What is That to You?
wilcomoore:
I’m a fairly insecure person. It could be some people-pleaser oldest child syndrome or some INFP stuff. Regardless, I’m always curious about what other people are doing, what other people are thinking, and where I line up on those spectrums.
Unfortunately, social networking and blogging has made chasing those questions all too easy. So I chase, absorb, and dwell on this information....
Fun moment this morning- couldn’t remember how old I was. Had to use math.

iPad 3 Bingo
Tomorrow, Apple will do their thing. Specifically: hold a press conference and show off a shiny new product, which will–barring a major disaster–find its way into many millions of eager hands. Meanwhile, the analysts and journalists have been doing their thing. Specifically: spend months chasing rumors and rumors of rumors, making predictions, and praising/criticizing unannounced products– all...
