It happened quickly, at least from my perspective. One day he was there as usual talking to anyone who would listen. The next there were whispers of illness…classes cancelled…coverage sought…wondering minds… It is rare to find someone who is who he is. That was my friend. In a setting where most are looking to position [...]

Blackberry Torch
My favorite Blackberry so far. So much to like. 3G; WiFi; A touch screen; slide out keyboard; OS 6; great applications. Is it an iPhone? No, of course not. But it is the best Blackberry yet. Seeing what RIM has done with the phone and the OS makes me believe they are firmly in the [...]

My mother-in-law recently passed away. I loved her very much. I was given the honor of delivering the eulogy. Through some research on the web I put together the words below. I also sang one verse of a song in Swahili that I believe holds out hope for us all. I miss her. For Helen [...]

k2 is back
I’ve returned to my favorite theme k2. I have always liked this theme but there was that issue with widgets vs sbm.

How Did I do?
Here is my New Year 2007 posting. Ok. So, I’m going to do it. My new year resolutions. Committing them to blog will give me the ability to review them periodically rather than “conveniently” forgetting them. In no special order. Finish the MS degree program. (Only one course remaining. I’ve procrastinated long enough!) ¡Result: Done! [...]
