As many of my friends know, I am an avid tea drinker. In fact, I don’t think there is a type of tea I don’t like. While waiting on the Apple store guys to put RAM in the Mac Mini I bought today, I went walking around the mall. Near the Apple store I was strangely drawn to this ... Continue Reading
In some respects this year has flew by, in other respects it seems like it’s been a long year. It’s definitely been an eventful year, so I decided to do a recap of the year’s events. From jet-setting around the world (literally), to taking on new roles in the company, to ... Continue Reading
A friend recently made the statement to me “you can learn a lot about a person by what they read”. Not quite believing in that premise, I decided today to round up the books I have read or are currently am reading over the past year. Surprisingly, I have more (at least) partial ... Continue Reading

It’s something I have talked about doing for a long time, just never fully committed to making a reality. Well, th ... Continue Reading
The power of the Internet and the nocturnal nature of my friends is amazing sometimes. After posting my last blog post with the mind teasers, I’ve had four friends IM me and one colleague / friend twitter me in regards to the post. Seems I am not the only one fascinated by these puzz ... Continue Reading
Tonight the entire Yahoo! Web Messenger went out to dinner together (photos coming soon) and had a very enjoyable time. Following the dinner, on the way home Chris (head project manager) gave my friend Ben, Henri (my boss), and I two mind puzzles. One’s easier than the other, but bot ... Continue Reading
