Have You Picked A Side?

It's in our DNA. That's what sports are about. If you watch a game and your local team is playing, then it's easy. You root for the home team. You can have more than one favorite, especially if you've been a nomad. The Red Sox are on a 14-2 tear this season. If they...

How Do You Know If You’re Doing The Right Thing?

How Do You Know If You’re Doing The Right Thing?

I was driving up a winding road today, deep in thought. I'd just had breakfast at the Diner with a friend I've reconnected with from High School. The conversation was deep and meaningful, though we've only visited a handful of times. I don't know if there's science to...

Wag The Dog

Wag The Dog

As I'm writing this the US is reportedly going to bomb Syria. I'm not going to get into how this could all lead to WW3, but from all I've read, it seems like a real possibility. Remember there are computer algorithms mapping and accurately predicting human behavior in...

The Self Driving Car

The Self Driving Car

We were in Worcester this weekend for the Saturday afternoon Bob & Zip Show, I do really like this town. Maybe it's sentimental, because our kids were born there. It's also where Twisted Tunes were hatched. And like most cities in New England, it's got some...
