On growth

My son lives with his dad. He’s at that age where he goes away for two weeks and comes back two inches taller. It’s disconcerting for me, but moreso for friends who haven’t seen him in a year or two. To them, he’s a foot taller. He’s rapidly approaching six feet tall, even though [...]

So if you're still reading, get me back in the spirit by telling me what you're up to. EFM starts up again next [...]

Socking it up

I’ve been wandering around the blogosphere this week, hoping to find other professionals working in the same capacity that I am. And I’m not alone at all, I find—magically stumbling across the right combination of Google keywords to discover people like Scott Briscoe, Fred Simmons and Zach Wilson, Ben Martin, Wild Apricot, and many more [...]
