Matt, one of my friends and co-workers, passed away suddenly today.
He is also the husband of Susanne, another friend and co-worker.
Apparently he had a massive stroke.
He was a great guy. Really talented and friendly to everybody. He’ll be sorely missed, and I cannot even imagine what Susanne is feeling.
Matt was 37.
And I don’t know what [...]

I’m off riding. Dropping a book in Crockett, Texas for a charity auction…the Moosehead’s opening up for Sunday lunch just for this event. I’ve gotta grab me some pie while I’m there.
It’s a ride…I need it.
Recent weeks have been tough. Work used to be about designing, building, and creating really cool stuff to meet the [...]

There are a lot of bad people in the world. I’m not naive by any means. I’ve dealt with more than my share.
BUT…
There are many, many more good people in the world, they just generally don’t get noticed.

Don’t get me wrong, I’ve got no problem with whacking on drunk drivers a bit, frankly I think we ought to just have a “drunk driver season” and issue bazookas…
What I have a problem with is official state policy and precedent now [...]

Dallas is one of the nation’s most dangerous cities. Property crime, assault, rape, homicide…all of these are very high compared to other cities. Triple, in fact, over the national average.
Those of us that live here know the reasons. Incompetent city government, corrupt cops (the joke is that we could drop the crime rate by 10% [...]

Every wonder what 30,000 cubic feet of water per second looks like? Rode up to take a look at the Lake Texoma spillway today. What can I say? It was a gorgeous day for riding! (besides, the Texas VRCC, 30 other bikes or so, a whole bunch of good friends, and fried catfish was involved!)

Well, when the smoke cleared I headed for home after-all. I’ve got books to ship Monday, and I was really missing the wife. Besides, sometimes some high-speed blasting down the interstate is just the thing to clear the cobwebs from the engine and cleanse the doubts from the soul.
Three big storms again…one of them rained [...]
