It was one isolated ripple that spread out, gathered momentum, propagated into larger and larger waves, and then ultimately into the Second Wave that indeed bitch-slapped change into the world, leaving only opportunity Read more of this blog post »

I was decently surprised this afternoon to find both of the Odyssey books - the ones I wrote in the sixth grade - on my profile. I usually shy away from talking about them as they are so old and outdated.

Forever grateful. Forever grieving. I miss Mike.

When they stop giving me ideas, I'll stop using them
