I am starting to realize that jQuery and ThickBox are making me look like a lot better of a Web developer at work than I really am. Then again, who says you have to write every last line of code in order to get the job done?

I believe that each of us is in constant struggle with tendencies that run counter to what civilized society says we should have. For the sake simplification, I will lump all of them together and call it “human nature.” It is human nature to horde what is yours without sharing, but for the sake of [...]

Writing has been a fine exercise lately, helping to maintain a relative sense of calm within the constant changes of the surrounding world. I do not feel as if though I have really had a lot of time to collect my thoughts other than sitting down in front of my home computer. At the end [...]

While doing a bit of job research for a friend of ours from college, I came across my results for a personality test I took while on my job search in August of last year. I cannot say that I disagree with the results even today.

While at UT Martin, I attended countless conferences, summits, lectures, presentations and “great reasons to use a university vehicle.” The major difference between those trips and this one rests in level of involvement. We are going to a trade show in Atlanta [...]

Tonight the local polls closed, bringing an end to at least two candidates’ ill-conceived television ads, along with a host of local hopefuls who accused their opponent of everything from tax evasion to being soft on capital offenders. I received a call a few days ago from a campaign worker who was reveling in the [...]
