Brought to You by the Letter 'A'
The word of the day, boys and girls, is apathy. I just can’t bring myself to care much about anything.  Specifically, what I am going to be doing on New Year’s Eve.  I don’t want to go downtown or to any large tourist area as I expect the crowds will be rather large and I may stab someone in the throat with a fork. My best friend is pregnant, so no drinks by her pool. My house...

Social Media Ate My Homework!
I am quickly becoming a Social Media junkie.  I am on Twitter and LinkedIn and I am obsessed with my Flickr account.  When I decided to use this blog as a grand experiment in networking, I joined BlogCatalog and Digg I use Geni to scan and upload family photos and to receive updates on the lives of distant cousins that I’ve never heard of let alone met (FYI, I apparently have a cousin named...
