Sorry for the lack of blogging and leaving my thoughts on Capitalism hanging. It’s been a busy few days. I’ll pick up my thoughts on Capitalism soon. I wrote 2 posts about alternatives but then deleted them. And then I picked up a book (The Starfish And The Spider) that talks a lot about decentralized [...]

This was originally intended to be a Christmas video. But I never got around to it and didn’t shoot enough footage. So it’s just a mix of some of the stuff I shot during the holidays and this month. Enjoy.

My super-talented-amazing-crazy-go-lucky-wife took some superb pictures of me and Jack while on a little hike yesterday.

I took some pictures of her and Jack but they were with my low-fi lomography camera and won’t be developed for a while.

So this is what I installed today. Except this is it pre-installation (after installation it sits below the ground). I had to dig a whole 48 inches deep (which is 4 feet by my estimation). This wouldn’t have been that hard had I not been forced to abandon my first attempt at a whole when [...]

Finally . . . the moment you’ve all been waiting for.
Fish Tacos & Wii

Ok. I’m a nerd and I was just thinking. This is an addendum to my post earlier today.
Capitalism is like Microsoft or Windows. reimagining capitalism is like Linux.

My next thought has to do with organizations and systems. I feel like this is where a business can begin to lose it’s focus and vision.

When a business starts [...]
