When you need to bet on a horse, ask @peteforde
At work we are finishing one big project (Office 2010) and about to start on the next (Office 201?). It’s an interesting time as people take a moment to open the hatch, get some air and look around after spending 3 years building a product/service. You get to reflect on the past and figure out [...] -

Broadband Insurance?
By the way, would you like to add Service Protection Plan on the services that you ordered? It acts as an insurance plan for the services you ordered and it only cost $30.99 per month. If anything goes wrong with the in-home wirings of our products, a skilled service representative will fix the problem at [...] -

Beware of geeks bearing formulas
I always feel more comforted about a situation after hearing Buffet talk about it. He has some great lines in this interview with Charlie Rose In a bubble there are always three I’s, the innovators, the imitators and the idiots. That’s so true not just of an economic bubble but everything in life. That’s the [...] -

Giles Bowkett rips it up at #rubyfringe
Pete posted a great write up on Giles’s talk at rubyfringe this past summer. I am not going to say too much other that this is one of the best conference talks I have seen… hands down. Stop what you are doing and go watch it. -

Every Schoolboys Dream
I think every kid at one point or another has a dream that their school catches on fire, maybe it’s the night before a big test or for me every-time I lit up one of those schoolhouse fireworks on the holidays. This ended up being so much greater than a dream one spring day in [...] -

Desk Workouts from a reliable source: Another McMinn
My brother has a great post on getting exercise at your desk. So why does working at a computer cause so much stress to our bodies? Well, the answer is pretty simple. Humans were not made to sit down for long periods of time, staring at a screen, typing and mousing. We have spent much [...] -

Seattle is always interesting
My good friend Mark Quail came into town tonight from Toronto for a visit, we had a great dinner and chat at Shiro’s in Belltown. Amazing sushi! On the way out of the restaurant we got stopped by Ed a Seattle homeless guy. He didn’t ask for money he just wanted to know what we [...] -

Summer of Change
The first day I met Kurt we went to pick up smokes for bottle-toking hash. When we got up to the counter he pulled out two fistfuls of quarters, slapped them on the counter and asked for a large pack of Players Light (Canadians will know that brand). No need for ID Despite the fact [...]
