My brother has a place near Williamsport, just an hour and 30 away from us, so Mack and I joined my brother and his family to watch the final game of the Little League World Series. It was great! Gorgeous weather, extra innings, Georgia (US) won, and best of all […]

My brother is with his son at Podcast Camp in Pittsburgh. Oh, how I wish I was there! Except I am here at the beach with my kids and that is even better! 🙂 PodCamp Pittsburgh! By admin It%u2019s started, and we are here! (and it%u2019s going LIVE today!) My […]
Another chat with my brother. We talked about Apple’s Safari browser and Leo Laporte‘s defense of the app. (Leo’s point: Safari is standards compliant. Steve’s point: even if IE/Firefox are not compliant, they display more sites correctly.) UPDATE: I ran the podcast through “Levelator” so the levels should be more…well, […]
But the demands are infinite. Merlin Mann, of 43Folders.com fame and MacBreak Weekly fame, gave a Google Tech Talk. I have just started it, but early on (at 6 minutes and 47 seconds) says the above and: Where you put your time and attention says a lot about who you […]
The wedding that is. It was a gorgeous affair, simply stunning. This was my “baby” brother-in-law (10 years my junior, I have known him since he was 13) and his beautiful bride. I was honored to be the officiant and it was just wonderful. The fireworks that the groom arranged […]

We headed to London today. 10 years ago, almost exactly, Elizabeth and I ate an ice-cream in a cafe in Harrods (did you all know the “s” is not possessive?). She was 6 months pregnant with our first child, Isabel, and we talked of coming back someday with our child(ren). […]
For passports (not the iPhone). My wife and kids were in need of passports (E’s had expired) and even though we had applied on April 1st they still were not completed. Lucky for us all their material was in Philly so we got up at 4:30 am, drove to Philly […]
Tomorrow is my bride’s 40th and this weekend we celebrated with her family. One of the “presents” was preparing a video of 40 years worth of pictures and, of course, music to go along with it. This led us into everything from James Taylor Something in the Way She Moves […]
