Jason, to answer your question concerning fatherhood (on Father's Day, no less), you know that being a father shapes just about all of your decisions and values. In a way, I've found some of my life decisions easier because of it (even if they haven't been right). And that's because there's always a consistent value to consider above my own needs and wants. For better or worse, that can be liberating because the "right" thing becomes more objective by nature and less focused on a self-involved outcome. Hey, thanks guys.

I had writing on the old Geocities pages, just static html that I would never claim to be blogging. Blogging began for me in 2001. Love the redesign. Wow, 1998 was still during my Geocities years.

Nice new site layout! =:) Like you, I was blogging before blogging existed, although the earliest post I still have around is only from 2000, so I'll concede bragging rights to you on that point. =:P So, one thing that I've found has really shaped and affected my endeavors has been fatherhood. I'm curious, now that you're a seasoned pro =;P, if you've found the same thing to be true and how it's affected the things you value, your personal advancement, the direction of your career, etc., etc. =:) Hope you guys are doing really well way down there in HBG!! =:) Still miss ya and still miss the uproarious laughter we all shared on the basketball courts. =:) Heya Mike!
