My plans to update my main Web site (not updated since Monday, March 29, 1999, 5:15 a.m.) are slowly progressing, as I put the infrastructure in place that will make updates incredibly easy.

A group of us were discussing Freemasons at my Leadership Program last week, and Jen just told me that her coworker Joe actually is a Freemason. And she emailed me the link to Rob Morse’s column today, which is all […]

Before heading to James’ BBQ in Sacramento on Saturday, Jen and I swung by Cal Expo for the Sac Snow Show, where I hoped, among other purchases, to buy a new pair of Salomon Xscreams, which I’ve been wanting ever since I demoed a pair last season. They also happen to be the best ski […]
