Small Business Account Opened

by

Finally, my wife and I both had an opening in our schedules to meet down at our local credit union and get our small business account opened up for our little business venture. I am not sure if I have mentioned it in the past, but we have started a small web development company called Presstronic Studios, so I have an avenue to route any freelance work I do through. For now I am hoping to keep it to a side business, but in a handful of years as the kids are all off to college and my wife gets … [Read more...] about Small Business Account Opened

Lessons: Live In The Now

by

If you don’t already know, I am a big Atlanta Braves fan. We are entering into the 2015 season, and although the team executives don’t characterize it as such, we are in the process of rebuilding. What this means is we have gotten rid of some of our big, short contract players in favor of bringing in lots of new young talent so that in a couple of years we may be really competitive again. Along with the young guys, a clubhouse needs to have some veteran leadership to help the young guys … [Read more...] about Lessons: Live In The Now

Perfect Day to Feck Perfuction

by

And there it is. Between being wicked busy with work, and my notoriously absent-minded brain, I finally missed a post officially in a day. Yes, I have posted more than once a day a bit of the time, so technically, based on post count, I am still up on the year. But from now on, if you look for a post that was published on February 25th, 2015 here, you won't find one. My goal is to post every day this year, and so in that nit-picky sense, I guess I failed. But here I am still doing the post … [Read more...] about Perfect Day to Feck Perfuction

Online Friends Are Real

by

A number of years ago, before the world of social media, the idea of having a friend that you met online and never in person, was considered weird. In fact, many dismissed any friendships I had from the internet as not being real. Can you imagine? Well, as someone that has been a netizen since the beginning, and even before that a citizen in the BBS realm, I can promise you these friendships may have a different dynamic, but can be every bit as real as an in-person friendship. … [Read more...] about Online Friends Are Real

Views of Ireland

by

I sit in awe of how amazing and varied this planet is, as well as how it is full of so many interesting cultures and histories. Along with the size and countless places there are to visit, I am very interested in places where I have tracked my family history. Ireland is just such a place and I do plan to visit in person some day. Until such time, I enjoy digging around on the web for photos to help show me what I will see when I visit. … [Read more...] about Views of Ireland

NASCAR 2015 Begins

by

I have already talked about my love for Motorsports and all things automotive, so it is no surprise I suppose that I find myself sitting here logged into work while watching the Daytona 500. Now I was a fan of NASCAR when I was younger and my favorite driver was Dale Earnhardt and his number 3 Goodwrench Chevrolet. I admit, I like many others somewhat fell away from NASCAR racing after Dale died in a tragic crash coming around turn 4 at Daytona in 2001. … [Read more...] about NASCAR 2015 Begins

Spring Means Baseball

by

Spring is near, and that has several meanings to me.  Some good, and some not so good. Living in Florida it means the nice cool weather we have had for a couple of months will be coming to an end soon. This is a very big deal since I start getting uncomfortable when temps rise above 75 degrees. Yes, I know, I am in the wrong state. What spring also signifies to me is pitchers and catchers report, and soon after, real baseball games start rolling along to officially begin, spring training. I … [Read more...] about Spring Means Baseball

Shows That Inspire

by

I am not much of a television show person. By that I mean to say, when everyone is talking about The Walking Dead, or, um…. I really can’t think of any of the big shows, but I know people are always talking about them. Sometimes I don’t like being left out of the conversation when these shows are discussed, but at the same time. Not watching so much T.V. affords me more time to do other things. … [Read more...] about Shows That Inspire

Featured Images Part Deux

by

Featured images and I have a history. As small a thing as they may be to use, I regularly found them being the reason why I had trouble actually publishing my posts. So much so in fact, that as part of my commitment to publish every day this year, I shunned the use of them until I could get rid of this block I had in picking an image. I don’t know if it is just my nature, or because I fancy myself as an amateur photographer, it became a point of pain and frustration for me. … [Read more...] about Featured Images Part Deux
