"You are attempting to manufacture a national unity crisis - by enabling a referendum on separatism and a fanatical cell of individuals - at the exact moment when Canadians need to unite against Donald Trump's America...."

Had to retire my The Monks - Bad Habits cassette today. Too many freeze/thaw cycles and mold finally got to it. Thank you for your service.

Had the privilege of attending my second Banksy show at the invitation of new friends. It was an amazing afternoon.

So impressed with the women of Pussy Riot at last night's show, and how they told their story. It was an inspiration and and warning.

Sipping coffee on a beautiful morning, disconcerted that I am only now reading Tufte's "The Cognitive Style of PowerPoint". Why wasn't I told about this 19 years ago when it was first published?

Yea, it kinda is.

Anything can be a project management tool. Project management is at its heart a collection of best practices. Tools, techniques, and procedures refined over time, meant to make getting work done by a group people easier and more likely to succeed.

Convince me otherwise.

Take care of yourselves out there the next few years, and if you can, others too.

Or as my troop sergeant used to say: "If you lock a soldier in a room with a cannon ball, he'll either break it, eat it, or lose it."

Ask me about the kinetic and acoustic characteristics of putting a shaped stone weight of an atlatl (spear throwing stick / lever arm). I dare you.
