Okay, so I’m still a noob with all the snowboard lingo, but this I know: I stuck / bombed / went down my first black diamond run last week. It was the Last Hoot run at Keystone, and I carved the heck outta all but one really steep part of it. Awesome, right? Sure.
My friends [...]
Okay, so Adam kind of inspired this call-to-dork-action: We’ve been playing (as in, he’s been beating me at) chess online for a couple months … as has Vinnie … and it’s good, good fun. It’s turn-based, as in, you play a game over a week or two, whenever you have a chance. It’s fun. And [...]
Hey y’all,
Here’s a bunch of stuff that’s awesome and you oughta know:
JJ, whose photo portfolio web site I built, is selling a book of his detailed Chicago photography for 30 bucks. Thirty bucks! That makes a great gift!
My employer, The Denver Post, won an Online News Association award last month for “General Excellence” among medium-sized [...]
Virb’s yet another social networking site, and it’s a place you can listen to my friend Tom’s (music name Tommy Slax) new album. If you dig it you can buy tracks from the album (The Spaulding Years) here… it’s an interesting site — tracks are about 16 cents a pop, but the more people who [...]

Hey, so Tuesday night (at 9 p.m.) my Chicago friends Jack Flash and Gretta Fine bring their band Bang! Bang! to the 15th Street Tavern in Denver. They call Bang! Bang! “sex rock,” but it’s more like glam-lick rock.
I’ve followed Bang! Bang! since they started — at first because they were friends, and now [...]
Dog mom saves puppies from flames.
And if that weren’t enought: Record heat’s on tap for Denver Sunday.
And Tammy wrote a great write-up on her Denver kickball season so far.

This month is poetry month (among other things that are being celebrated all month long I’m sure). This month I found a book of Robert Bly’s poetry. I found Robert Bly through this fascinating lit mag from North Carolina called The Sun, which came to me via Sarah. So yeah, I found the book, which [...]
My former client and current friend Daniel Grissom just published his first book, “Step-Up!: The 6 Steps for Achieving Rapid Results” (you can check out the free chapter here (pdf)).
Back in my Joe Design days I helped D with his Ph.D. In Results site.
Adam’s back with WebJillion — Winston-Salem Journal co-worker Adam Howell re-launches WebJillion. Now it helps designers buy and sell WordPress templates. Adam’s built a bunch of different web products, most of which have been successful.
Talk Derby to Me — a roller derby documentary flick my Denver-friend Tammy was in / helped produce goes up Wednesday [...]
