When I first contemplated taking the National Blog Posting Month challenge I figured that it would be much easier than taking the Slim Fast challenge or the Pepsi challenge. And it was. Because blogging is fun AND easy.

One of the problems with today’s hyper-speed news cycle is that people barely get their full 15 minutes of fame anymore.

Dear Old Man Jogger,
Please know that today and forevermore I love you.
I love how you jog up and down my street every day. Well, I suspect that you run every day but I don’t actually see you every day. Perhaps you take a day or two off a week. You probably should. You don’t want [...]

I’ve been hard at work in the lab lately doing some landmark research on cross-cultural intellectual relativity theory (C.C.I.R.T.) and wanted to share some of my initial findings just in case any readers had valuable insights to share before I submitted my final report to the appropriate scientific journals.
