I wrote a few days ago about this story, and wanted to post a link to an article that has a video at the end about the story of Rod and Chad. No words can describe. Simply watch.

Mint.com, what are you doing?
A few weeks back, I was singing the praises of Mint.com. Now, I am beginning to wonder if the acquisition by Quicken is starting to drag them down. There has been an issue for over three months with Capital One Bank wherein the account update will update the balance but not the transactions. While I […]
I Can’t Believe The News Today
There are times in life where events simply make no sense. Last week a friend of mine had a brother who was going to die from liver disease. I went to college with both of these guys, and both were complete studs. So, in a gesture befitting brotherly love, their youngest brother agreed to donate […]
Making Muzak
Sunday night for my family is usually spent making popcorn and watching a movie or something on TV. We have done this ever since our kids were little, and it’s a carry over from my childhood. Tonight we were watching It Might Get Loud, a documentary about The Edge, Jack White and Jimmy Paige and […]
Lightning In A Bottle
My kids love watching the show So You Think You Can Dance. I don’t mind it either. A few weeks ago a song by Christina Perri called “Jar Of Hearts” was used in the show. Read about what happened next here. We watched the episode of the show last night where she got to perform live. […]

One Kick At The Can
I was reading the story of Kaye Cowher’s death yesterday and found it to be both sad and inspiring. Kaye was the wife of former Pittsburgh Steelers coach Bill Cowher and died over the weekend from skin cancer. The story was a bit more poignant to me not because I knew her personally but because […]
What If
What if I am wrong? What if I fail? What if it doesn’t happen? What if no one shows up? What if I lose it all? What if it’s the dumbest thing I have ever done? How could you do it? Why would you do it? Why would you give that up? Do you know […]
Conscience Do Cost
So said Butchie to Omar. I had a situation develop over the last couple of weeks that was one of those times where you have to check in with your conscience and remember that nothing matters more than reputation and your word. I have worked to develop a relationship that has long-term implications for the […]
