In the mornings when I drop the kids off at school, I'll stop by the park to knock out some pullups on the bars if it's not raining too bad. There used to be a huge flock of pigeons hanging around the park. I haven'

Yesterday morning my 7 year old daughter told me that she dreamed that she wrote a book and had her own publishing company. Kids are upping the stakes on everything these days. When I was 7 I wanted to be an astronaut. No idea how that concept got into her

The internet is all fake. This past weekend I put up a thread in my Night's Gate group talking about this. It's called the Dead Internet Theory. There was a time in living memory when you could use the internet for cool, interesting, weird, and even

Last week after it rained, I got woken up at this strange time called "two in the morning". Two o'clock belongs in the afternoon. If I'm not partying with hookers and elbow-deep into a bottle of single-malt, I don't want to know

The other day I had an inquiry out of the blue for fitness coaching. I wanted to vomit. I've got Post Coaching PTSD. Since I haven't said this in public anywhere, let me say it: I will never again coach anyone, concerning workouts or nutrition, in

I'm not a casual swear-word user but that day they had it coming. I was in a room with around 23 students, who I was teaching the fine details of social philosophy. Most all of them were bored, as can happen when sitting in a chair for 50

I like chewy quotes that make you think. One or two sentences that capture a point in fine poetic imagery. When done well, you can find endless value in a simple quote. Like this beauty: Let go, or be dragged. No idea who said that. Don't care. Look

The other week I picked up a copy of Jerry Seinfeld's book called Is This Anything? I'm thinking it's a biography. It's not a biography. I crack it open and what do I find but hundreds of pages of written jokes, going

On Tuesday this week past, a guy got murdered five minutes from my house. Poor guy wasn't but in his early 20s, walking home about an hour after dark, on a forest walkway that cuts over to a shopping center up the road. The path is a little

It's rare that the easy, simple, fast choice is right. But we all go for it. Don't lie. It's a bug built into the human hardware. We say we want all these nice things. We admire the high achievers. We might even write down

I went on Twitter the other day. For purely research purposes. I keep hearing that, if you know how to use it right, you can make great connections and build an audience. I don't see it. Every time I go there, all I see is a cheap traveling

That word "better" doesn't mean anything. What's a "better person"? Like when all these allegedly ethical business-persons love to tell you how they're making the world a better place. At Brand X, we have a Cause and Mission. We aren&
