In this morning’s New York Times, we find Economy Grew at 7.2% Rate in 3rd Quarter, Fastest Pace Since 1984. A list of important stats for quick analysis: The increase in the GDP for July-September, the 7.2% in the title, was more than double the 3.3% increase reported in the 2nd quarter Analysts were only […]
The New York Times has a great article today called Youthful Attitudes, Sobering Realities, which is all about the way that the current 20-to-34 set (that would be me, thanks) tends to think about careers. Basically, all of the pooh-poohing and self-congratulatory cackling that some economists and sociologists made against Dan Pink’s Free Agent Nation […]
Just got back from the dentist for my one-week postop appointment. Apparently I’m healing nicely, have no sign of dry sockets (praise Jesus) and am well on the road to recovery. Rock and roll. Now to figure out how to catch up for the lost time, and properly grovel before a friend for dropping the […]
Ladies and gentlemen, I’m pleased to announce the launch of kateerinphoto.com, the online home of Kate Erin Photography. My girlfriend takes beautiful portraits – you should hire her. Really. (And no, this isn’t the client project I posted about a couple of days ago. That’s coming later this week.)

She didn’t have to come down. She really didn’t. She’s busy as all get out, and she has a million things going on in her life, and I’m sure 999,999 of them are more important than me. But she came down this weekend to make sure I was okay anyway. So, just so y’all know, […]

Has anybody else noticed how k10k has been really hurting for cool stuff to post lately? What’s up with that? Where has all the neat, experimental web design gone? Where’s the neat stuff?
