Summer is a playground and I have tried all of the swings and ladders and teetertotters, and merrygorounds!!
SO far I have taught six rocket classes, one cooking class, interned at a TV station/radio station, been to San Fran, slept late, got up at 4 in the morning, and went golfing a few times. Oh, yeah I got older too.
Next up, Minn Minn and Web 2.0, can life get better than this?

WEAK 15
It has been a very long week in my statistics class. If I get through this week I hear it gets better and better. I like better. If summer comes here I will have to juggle a lot of activities. Right now with the rain and cold I will just keep plugging away at school.
On a lighter note, the igniter has fallen out of my grill.
(think about it)

Week 14 (yeah 14)
A day late but more than a dollar short. Mortgage company took out two payments instead of one. Technology is great if you have unlimited power to mess with other peoples lives. Beware of how much power you grant to big companies. Insurance, banks, oil, just to name a few; these entities don't care about anything but the bottom line. Now I get to begin writing letters until I turn blue to recoup the overdraft charges.
On the upside, I got to play music, practice what passes for my golf swing, and eat sushi.
Life is good!

Week 13???
So,
There I was, having a backyard party. In attendance were a former LA laker, a three time gold medal Olympic freestyle skiing coach, a stunt double for Richard Dreyfuss (and occasional golf partner with Glenn Campbell), a millionaire, two 13 year olds, a dog and a future BMX bike legend.
It is amazing how people include you in their lives, as well as the affect it can have on one who is being included. Inclusion is one of the primary themes in my work. It is not just about being included, but finding ways to include others. I am still amazed by how much better other people are at this than I am. Something for me to work on...

WEEK 12 post: About last week
Last weeks post looked really good on one browser, a little askew in another, and was a complete disaster in the last one I viewed. Sorry about that folks...
End of class blues, especially with the class you wish could go on forever. People you enjoy hearing from and sharing with get involved in their own battles in other arenas. One of the benefits of the information age is an ever growing ease of access to other peoples lives on agreeable terms.
I have been told it take 30 days to make or break a habit. Hopefully posting to this blog has become habitual for me. Check back next week to find out. Thanks to all who have read and contributed.
More soon

WEEK 11 Blogging on and on
Now I see how to...
Last week I was experimenting with font size and tried to import an entire html page. (not allowed by blogger) That is the biggest thing I think I have internalized from all of the years of gaming I have done; try stuff! If the electrons won't line up for you one way try something different. No electrons will be harmed, hit reset, and try, try again.
The title for last week was supposed to look like this.
Bloggity blog blog blog....
The quest is to keep life interesting and fun. I took Green Goddess dressing to school and most the other teachers said they had never heard of it. Trying new paths has never been easier thanks to our techno world. This freedom to explore never ceases to amaze me. Every time we think we have conquered the last, latest and best, along comes someone with something new and amazing.
I thought I was a pretty good bicyclist, even got the unicycle thing down for a while. Then along comes my son. http://www.verdebmx.com/2008/ I don't ride a bicycle anymore; in fact I am scared just to walk next to him most of the time. Watch the clip, he plays video games too, who says they never get out and do anything in the fresh air.
