Yours truly has been asked to participate in this year’s Cape Cod Chamber of Commerce Travel Industry Symposium. Date is January 21 @ 10:30 AM.

So early on, I was invited to sign up for a Photoshop.com account…and the first iteration was like any beta image tool…slow…finiky, and bare…now it’s been a couple of months…and I was prompted to return and check back in…things are looking much more thoroughly baked…check it…
It was on this day in the year of our lord 1820 that one creature, being hunted by humans said…”I’ve had enough…” And decided to do something about it…the whale took aim at the whaling ship and struck it not once but at least two times, holed it below the waterline and sent the majority of the crew to their eventual deaths.

Hey y’all…so here we are, in the final weekend of the U.S. Election of 2008. Certainly, as a supporter of Barak Obama, I would like the vote to be held today…but since that isn’t going to happen, I’ll have to content myself by looking at every number I can find…
As such, I’m calling on Senator McCain to truly put “Country First” and suspend his campaign forever.
I’m asking him to sincerely join with Senator Obama, support his run for the 44th presidency of United States and work on the problems we face as a race.
Yesterday, about 3:45 AM, I awoke…and prepared myself for a trip to the world-famous Tsukiji Fish Market in Tokyo, Japan. I took the elevator to the lobby at 4:40 to meet my team,…thinking I was five minutes early…when I left the elevator…I found the three of them eagerly waiting for me…and off we went in a waiting taxi…
