Yesterday I completed the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure 5K in downtown St Petersburg, my third of four planned competitive 5K’s for 2011. My final 2011 race will be Richard’s Run for Life on 11/4/2011 in Ybor City.
I want to thank my mother Donna, uncle Phil and [...]
On Sunday I was able to catch the final showing of Jobsite Theater’s production of the The Guys and am glad I made it.
As a regular fan of their shows I am always entertained and have a great time.
The Guys is phenomenal theater; Paul and Roz Potenza were moving and perfect in [...]
For the past three years I have not followed the happenings of the Casey Anthony case. For the past 30 days I used selective ignorance to avoid the trial.
However as the month of June closed, I could hardly avoid hearing about it from people around me, so I was made aware that we were obviously in the middle [...]
Not as part of a New Years Resolution but really just because the timing was right I started running the first week of January with the goal of running the Gasparilla Distance Classic on February 26, 2011. I ran a little bit in high school (Cross Country and Track) while still living in New York [...]

The Tribune reported there were only three arrests.
As for those hauled off to jail, [...]

The elevated lanes of the Lee Roy Selmon Crosstown Expressway could become an occasional bicycle and pedestrian trail in the future, perhaps on Sunday mornings.
Of [...]
I don’t make it to downtown St Pete often for a night out unless I coordinate with a friend close by for a place to crash because driving is out of the question and a cab to pricey.
However when I do make one of the stops is typically the Independent.
So I was [...]
Two pieces in the Times this week; Sunday’s How Oldsmar got global influence and today’s editorial Questions for Obama, McCain have prompted me to comment on what I think of outsourcing.
Having an IT background and designing websites for the past decade has given me some personal experience with this topic. I have bid against [...]
I met Mr. Hughes on only a couple of occasions and wish that I had more opportunities before his passing this month. I am most appreciative of one bit of advice he gave during my first meeting with him in 2004.
Someone during the meeting [...]
