Photo Contest Winners and Awards
ViewBug Photo Contest Awards Ok, I am not a professional photographer in any way, shape or form … but I am a pretty good hobbyist, and love the creative outlet it gives me. So about six months or so ago, I joined ViewBug on a whim to see how some of my photos would do in a […]
Longwood Gardens – Nightscape
Longwood Gardens at Night Yesterday was my birthday, and my wife and I spent the night in Philadelphia so that we could attend the Longwood Gardens Nightscape event – a sound and light show using the natural surroundings as a backdrop and canvas put together by Klip Collective. As for the show, it was ok, nothing to rant […]
Travel Bags and Baggage
Carrying yet more baggage … So – for the record – I hate traveling as much as I have to with my new role, and I’ve got a ton of travel coming up this year yet. My older checked baggage is getting long in the tooth and a bit ratty – needs replacement before the wheels fall […]

Some will promise to lose a couple pounds, exercise, get organized, write their generation’s Great American Novel, or simply to stop procrastinating about 2015’s resolution that died […]

Back on the road again
On the road again … Tomorrow I’m back on the road again for a 17 day business trip to Australia (Sydney) and New Zealand (Auckland and Christchurch) for some PCI assessment work, and general information security meetings and reviews with folks in our APAC offices. I do love New Zealand, and Auckland in particular. This is my […]
