My site went from a daily average of 60 visits to a sudden spike of over 8,000 yesterday. At one point 385 people were on the site, so I am happy my web server was able to keep up with the demand (thank you, WordPress and WP Super Cache). The 400 pound snake story caused tons of people to visit yesterday from bing.com. I was ranked third on Bing, and as of today I am...
Healthcare Systems and Life Expectancy: US vs. Canada

Usually I see some cows or some birds, but today I was walking back by some vineyards and there...
Communication Problem

I'm excited to announce that I’ll be leading a technical communications session at CMMA’s Fall Conference next month in Park City, UT, kicking off the Monday programming. Last year, I participated in a panel on YouTube in the enterprise at the Scottsdale, AZ conference.
