'the more you know' - moment
for those atlanta folk who have enjoyed a night out at cafe intermezzo i thought i would share the definition of where it derives it’s name. Understanding these kinds of things allows me to enter into the spirit of the establishment all the more.
“In music, an intermezzo, in the most general sense, is a composition which fits between other musical or dramatic entities, such as acts of...

sit & watch
If I believe my house to be on fire and yet still sit on my couch…..do I really believe my house is on fire? Notions-a-plenty but yet I refrain from the plea’s of my soul, choosing to turn the channel more often than my other cheek. How is it that something breaks into the brain and not into the heart? (which consequently means never the hands) It must be that it never entered the...

if the sun rose once
The Sages, it is often said, can see no answer to the riddle of religion. But the trouble with our sages is not that they cannot see the answer, it is that they cannot even see the riddle. -GK Chesterton
Everyday I wake up and that should be enough to convince me, yet still I wonder. I then imagine a world where the Sun only rose once. A world with but one lily, with but one wave, with but one...

Home sweet.......
so I am home….and it feels great. Over the last 3 years I have taken numerous work trips and/or vacations that have kept me away from my own bed for weeks at a time. these times are always filled with all kinds of things; learning, randomness, and loneliness.
in college I went over seas for a few weeks and I thought I was going to ‘get away from god’. I even thought i was going...

Change.Gov →
I liked both political candidates, also disliked them….hence my reason for my no vote vote. One thing Obama has done much better than any president to date is communications…not just on the stage. Perhaps this is due to the current time period or that he is willing to let people run with his communications strategy that know more than him about communications.

an inconvenient truth | Obama is not the issue
I hate inconvenient truths. They always come at inopportune times….but none the less they come.
one I have discovered is that I am the issue. Yes me. Not you. Not that system over there. Not that company. Not the government. Not my church. Not that bureaucracy. Not that niche of friends. Not that guy that cut me off. Or that guy that screwed me over in the business deal. Not the media. Not...
