Social Media Links
It’s been a busy few months – as with anything in life, I’ve been through some good things, some bad, but the net effect is that I haven’t been posting blog entries very much. I’m more active on Twitter and Facebook, so I’ll go ahead and link you to those. Come find me there, or send me a message through my Contact Me link at the top right of this website.

My wife and I recently had a day of lessons in customer service. Sunday, we wanted to celebrate reaching a major weight loss milestone (51.8 pounds each!), so we planned two movies with dinner between them. Little did we know, we’d see how a national company responds to bad feedback on a public social media forum. First, some background. About a month ago, my boss had invited the team (total four people) to lunch to celebrate reaching a major milestone – yes, there’s a pattern...Happy Mother’s Day 2011
My mom taught me to be compassionate, caring, inquisitive, and methodical. She taught me to completely avoid alcohol, cigarettes and drugs. I gave her Hell as a child. As a psychologist, I’m sure she knew I “wasn’t quite right”, but she never labelled me or treated me any differently – not as far as I could tell. Despite my challenges, she busted her tail to bring me cable TV, drive-in movies, and E.T. cake at Chuck-E-Cheese for my 9th birthday party. She never beat...The United States of Autism
Just an hour ago, the movie trailer for The United States of Autism movie was posted to YouTube: http://bit.ly/hEooYb This looks like it’s going to be a great insight into the lives of families affected by autism. I remember watching the tweets and Facebook posts when they filmed it a year ago, anticipating the movie’s release. Several of my Twitter friends are in the movie, and while they’re not telling details, I think it’ll be quite informative. Recent statistics show that...

Get out – Now, Not L...
People on the east coast, in the line of Irene, I have one thing to say: Get out – NOW. Don’t wait, don’t worry about a job schedule, just go. I survived Katrina. And Ivan, and Dennis, and other smaller hurricanes that make Katrina look like, well, Katrina. A storm doesn’t have to be Katrina to cause widespread damage. Katrina came straight in and devastated the coast in one...

USANA Inventory
Since it’s a popular option, I’ve created this blog post to maintain an inventory for the smaller items that I can bring to local customers who want to save on shipping expenses. I’ll update this as soon as possible after selling out of an item, but check with me early – I typically only carry two or three of an item to keep them as fresh as possible. I currently have, as of...

The TSA’s Arrogance
I’m going to try to keep this as non-political as possible, but I feel like something just has to be said. Last October, a new “enhanced pat-down” was put into place at airports nationwide, and it has been the subject of mixed discussion – anywhere from personal reports of trauma to “quit whining, we all have to go through it.” Before commenting, read through to the...
