Don't worry, this is a technical editorial, but the initial analogy starts a bit personal.

Throughout this time, my overall physical fitness has […]

During a speaker dinner the other week, a lot of topics were swirling around and a few caught my ear. One of these topics dovetailed nicely with a mistake I recently made. More on that later. The discussion was on the effect on safety that all the new safety-based tech is having on driving. Some […]

I was in a social media discussion the other day where someone said “Perfection isn’t real, but progress is.” This started me thinking, is there really no perfection?

Love is many a splendored thing. It is also a much-abused word with many different (and twisted) meanings. The type of love I wish to speak about today is not friendship, nor the kind of thing that makes your heart go pitter patter in the springtime, but rather the type of love known as storge, […]

Hero, Champion, Inspiration. These are words that are bantered around about people regularly. Joe was a hero when he saved that puppy. Betty was the champion runner and won the race.
