∞ Watching American Idol this week and seeing Steven Tyler as a judge brought back a lot of old music memories for me (as I’m sure it has for many Baby Boomers and Gen Xers such as myself).

I remember thinking Sunday night how nice it was going to be to have my first full “normal” week ahead of me after the past month of jury duty, personal/business trips, holidays, etc. Wow, so much for THAT idea! Oh well, Friday is upon us and you know what that means – time for my [...]

As I wrote earlier, I received a jury notice in the mail in January, and when I reported, was actually selected to serve on a jury for a trial in Snohomish County Superior Court. The process was a new, interesting (and inconvenient) experience for me. The Reporting Process [...]

∞ I’m in the early stages of an experiment: avoiding the consumption of any alcohol until the end of February. Depending on your perspective (or how well you know me), this may not seem like a very big deal. And in the scheme of things in life, I guess it’s not. But it is a pretty [...]

∞ Today I was called to jury duty for Snohomish County here in the State of Washington. I was actually surprised I was required to show up to the courthouse – the last few times I’ve received jury notices I’ve called in advance to discover my services were not required. But alas, when I called on [...]

∞ Renee, Ty and I were watching today’s Seahawks-Bears playoff game when Chicago struck first on a Jay Cutler to Greg Olson 58 yard touchdown pass on their first possession. Ty suddenly broke out crying and starting yelling, “no touchdown! No touchdown for Bears!” He was really upset and I as I tried to explain to [...]

∞ Some final BCS Thoughts I’m sitting at Sky Harbor Airport in Phoenix waiting for my flight back to Seattle.
