The other day I signed on to Facebook and saw that my older sister (she is 28) had created an account. I was eager to get her take on the social utility because I equate her views as being representative of an average internet user. Too often people within digital media get swept up [...]
I’ve been a member of nextNY for about a year now. It’s a NYC networking group with a focus on tech and digital media and tends to attract the entrepreneurial types. On the website the description is that nextNY “is basically a fun way to connect both socially and professionally with young people [...]
Today was 9/11. It is the sixth anniversary since the tragic and fateful day. For many, the wounds aren’t as raw but the memories of that day are still powerful. I found myself thinking about 9/11 a lot today. My big sister wrote an email to Courtney and I this morning. [...]
A few of you seemed eager to hear what I have to say about Michigan Football after witnessing another debacle last week vs. Oregon. I don’t really know what to say or think. Our defense is more porous than the Tijuana border. If I was Mike Hart I would pull that shady move [...]
I’m going to Ann Arbor this weekend to catch a Michigan Football game. I’ve gone back for a game each year since I graduated. Returning to my alma mater is usually one of the highlights of the Fall. Unfortunately, after last Saturday’s debacle at the Big House I’m not as pumped up [...]

For the last few years I’ve been employing a liberating hair style. Basically, I let my curly hair grow for five or six months until it is completely unruly and becomes a total jewfro. Then I buzz it all off.
I’m at about that point in the cycle where I’m sick of my [...]
In recent weeks my big sister Lisa mentioned that she wants to blog. I guess she’s been reading the “Yo Bro” blog and it got her thinking that she could do it. Lisa has the tendency to blurt things out and not follow through so I didn’t pay much attention to her. [...]
My friend Brett sent me a great email yesterday. I’m not sure how he comes up with such eloquent analysis but he does. Check out his Lebron email. When I heard Rick Ankiel hit a homer in his return to the major I thought it was a cute story. Like many [...]
It’s my job to watch Max the Dog this week as my parents and Lisa are both out of town. My apartment building allows pets and my deck/backyard makes it super easy to take Max out when he need to go. I even decided to bring Max to work instead of keeping him locked [...]
