    I write this blog. It does not represent anyone else's opinions or perspectives.

It’s particularly interesting to me because I just had a discussion with a good friend.  That discussion was directly about this topic and how we have different viewpoints and different aspects of this topic in our lives. I’m listening. [...]

Status Updates

I just added this as my Facebook status.  “Toby is quagmire laden, feeling morose, exhausted, refreshed, enlightened, verbose, confused, capable, smart, hungry, thirsty, and finally some enchanted melancholy.” Facebook Digg Print Email

1st money spent in 2008

I’m at Starbucks.  I’m curious.  I wonder how many people spend their first dollars of the year at Starbucks.  I bet that number would amaze, both for number of people and number of dollars. Facebook Digg Print Email
