    I write this blog. It does not represent anyone else's opinions or perspectives. Regardless of employers or clients or any other associations, this is my blog and it does not speak for anyone else. I have learned that perception is more powerful than reality. So, we get to experience the joys of claiming and disclaiming. Isn't that super!

new theme goin’ on

Hey, there’s a new theme here on this blog. If you’re viewing via RSS, check out the updated site. Also, updated 4×4 Weekend theme as well as added tentative route for an Adventure in Colorado.

My Current Blogs

Tweblog Getsch.com 4×4 Weekend TechProfound HoopsTech While that subject is accurate, it’s not very true.  Those are the blogs that I currently have the ability to publish to and own.  They are not all that up to date. Tweblog is current, but still could use a better About Me page. Getsch.com is supposed to be family [...]

Turning Point

May 15th – Spring here in Seattle, WA is starting to feel more like Summer. The air outside is warmer than the air inside. Sitting out on the deck is now done without a little space heater. I can just feel it.  It’s warmer and the daylight hours are getting longer. Several months of AWESOME [...]

3 things that happened yesterday

I got a flat tire for the first time in about 6 years. It was not the best spot (link to quick 30 second video) to get a flat, but everything turned out ok. I went to Les Schwab to get it fixed.  They showed me the bill that was very reasonable ($11.50) and then showed me [...]

My 2006 Jeep Commander Photoset on Flickr

Hopefully, I’ll be able to keep my Jeep for a while.  With my current finances and undefined career ahead of me, it may be a challenge.  Here’s a link to a slideshow of My 2006 Jeep Commander Photoset on Flickr that I just updated. UPDATE: Check out this cool Jeep Commander Blog.

closest real snow

Snoqualmie Pass, WA Maybe I’ll go drive my Jeep in some snow today.    Too bad 4×4 Weekend isn’t around any more.

Thursday 20060720 – on tap for today

As I mentioned in an earlier post, right now I am not going to do the new 4×4 Weekend business. So, for part of today, I’ll be returning some supplies and running errands to wrap up some of that stuff. That will take at least a few hours to go to Target, GI Joe’s, and [...]

4×4 Weekend: Too much geek. 4×4 Weekend on indefinite hold.

From the 4×4 Weekend Blog… As of today, Tuesday, July 18, 2006, 4×4 Weekend is on indefinite hold. There are a number of reasons for this, which I’m about to go write about here in a few minutes. This is a good thing, and a positive decision. I’m excited for various other opportunities! I have [...]

Why am I so big on listening right now?

I’m starting a new company called 4×4 Weekend.  I’m watching and noticing and paying attention to various reactions and insights of others as I talk about it or write about it.  It’s also 90 days after my most recent profession in the tech world.This has been a big change.  It’s been a big change for many [...]

Expert Listening

I am totally convinced that expert listening is one of the greatest traits found in all quality leaders. Listening has been one of my weakest skills or characteristics over the years. It’s one thing that I don’t think can be too good or can be over-used. Good listening does not just mean being quiet. It [...]
