Emily’s Going Away Party
Click to Play
Emily Greenleaf is a good friend of my Love Associate, Aaron Tinling (I am not sure if there was anything more than that ever, we have a sort of “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy).

My Summer Vacation at Off the Grid
Click Here to Play Video
The thing that was so great about Off the Grid Camp was all the intelligent conversation. It just doesn’t happen every day that you are surrounded by inspiring, intelligent people who are the cream of the crop… making a difference in the world through technology…..

Yesterday, a woman was taking pictures of the beautiful garden and arbor in front of my office. I liked this because my professional shingle would be in the pictures and I fully own my narcissism. We spoke for a few moments and I discovered that she was from my home town, Portland, Oregon. She was visiting [...]

Yes, my five-year-old son, Logan, had a divine realization this morning about the cause of gravity. This is how it goes:
