"The true lesson of history is that no one learns anything from history. " -- Sir Timothy Bowling


Good day today at work and all. I enjoy public speaking, though I need to slow down during it. Nervous energy gives me a high.

Gonna try to see a movie this weekend. Hopefully War of the Worlds or something like that.

A quick word about my soon-to-be 9 year old Brianna. She is so very delightful my new nickname for her is Diamonds. Her help she devotes so freely to the care of the Chub, Ryan, is remarkable. She basically fundamentally enjoys the acts of being grown up and taking care of a family member. Its so very beautiful. So when she reads this later I want to tell her thanks, and tell her that she is so very very special. One of the nicest souls I've ever known. I am proud of her already, and deeply honored to have her as a daughter.
