Disney World VS Universal Studios
I’ve talked so much about this that I feel its time to get it down in some sort of official capacity. Our summer vacation is officially over and I had a wonderful time with my family at the two big resorts in the Orlando Area, Disney World and Universal Studios. We had five days in Disney World, two at the Magic Kingdom, one at EPCOT, one at Hollywood and one at Animal Kingdom. We had three days at Universal divided into Universal Studios Florida, Universal’s Islands of Adventure, and Universal’s Volcano Bay. DISNEY WORLD REVIEW In a perfect world, I …
Shades of Green at Disney
Our Disney experience has been pretty memorable thus far. I’ve had a chance to experience new and amazing rides and park sections (Tron, Guardians of the Galaxy and Pandora). But perhaps the most amazing thing has been our resort, Shades of Green. Not only is this resort located with of the magic kingdom, it’s both beautiful and cheap! The Magnolia restaurant provided one of our best meals of our entire trip. Their are two pools and the largest had a killer water slide – with an amazing sports bar in walking distance. I highly recommend this place to anyone who …
Emotional Outrage Machine ™
I occasionally do a little writing on my Freethinking Page. I have always tried to remain objective on a great many subjects. Trying to cut through the muck becomes both an intellectual endeavor and a way of deconstructing my own perceptions. In a world where everyone is being sold ideas, I choose to be a picky consumer. My latest piece is on the Emotional Outrage Machine ™
Flashback to Seminole Club days
Back in the days when I was president of the Seminole Club of Baltimore, the Baltimore Sun had interviewed me regarding Bobby Bowden. I think everyone had a sense back then that things were coming to an end. It was an emotional time for fans and alumni. http://archive.today/apmhI
Flashback to Saxotech
Came across these old photos from my days at Saxotech. That’s me with my brother-in-law on the Starship II cruising around Tampa Bay. We had a fun but short time with Saxotech; shortly after they had acquired DSI (which both of us worked at), a venture capital firm bought out Saxotech and its competitor. Alas, it was liquidation time after that for the top heavy sales dept. Saxotech was fun and I actually learned a lot in my short time with them. Unfortunately, it also represented the end of my very long career at DSI. The HQ may have changed …
My Darling Wife Joins the OId Person Club
We had a great night out at Sakura and pigged out on steak. The entertainment from the Chef was top notch. The chef had 5 chances to toss shrimp into Pam’s mouth. Each time Pam would catch the shrimp in mid aid with her hands and eat it. Fun times!
New Horizons in 2023
Looking forward to a fresh 2023 and I have lots of goals! Working with sitesinoneday.com to develop lots of new websites which may also have some ADDIE projects. Also have some personal goals of cutting back o my weight and working on myself ( more meditation, staying on task etc.)
Happy Halloween
This was my best attempt at doing the Grinch. Doing makeup yourself is kind of fun but it got a little frustrating as I tried using pencil makeup kits which are more akin to crayons. What I really needed was a bush kit. Lesson learned.
