A thought about the Republican Senators (including McCain) who stated that Kerry is not weak on defense:Some may see their actions as hurting the Bush campaign. They may actually be killing Kerry with kindness.On foreign policy, I belive that Kerry want’s to attack Bush’s record, and leave his own possible actions as President, vague. It’s […]
David Allen, author of “Getting Things Done”, and workflow management consultant, has just started a personal blog.I’ve found his book, and his newsletter extremely helpful in becoming more organized, and… well.. getting things done.Now, I won’t exactly put myself up as a poster boy for David’s work, as I’ve got a long way to go […]

Not to harp too much on web traffic, even though I seem to talk about it every other post…But I’m amazed. In just two days, I’ve increased my traffic incredibly. 60 Hits!!! Looking at the referral logs, most of it is from google searches on the Oscars, especially searches about Liv Tyler’s glasses. ( Beats […]
