Changes are coming to this blog. You can now tune in for posts about the latest technology stories, some geo caching stuff and camping stuff as well as anything that peaks my interest including strange news stories.

" People in glass houses should not throw stones!" Someone once told me that and I often wondered how it would apply to me. Would I throw stones or would I be someone on the receiving end. Well, the fact is when something like this happens no one is the winner, no one comes out on top. Everyone involved is some how damaged. It is a sad commentary on life but it really is how life is. We can try to be the bigger person, we can try not to get involved or we can care to much, we can try to do the right thing but some how we all get damaged from the events of one or two people.

My life as usual spiraled out of control because as always, I am a sucker for a good cause. I dedicate everything I have to something and find that I can stop giving. Even if it hurts me. I seem to always get tied up the wrong crowd. It is good to know that I have some real true honest wonderful friends who always support me no matter what stupid thing I get into. Some of the wonderful projects I have worked on this year are WIOX, WIOX one year anniversary, Morning Radio with High school students, afterschool radio club, GEOFUN workshop, Stop motion animation workshop, Blogging workshop with kids in the garden. Roxbury Sidewalk festival,  and much more. I am currently working on a big project with GRLIC and RCS that will be announced in just a few weeks. Moving GRLIC to a new location on Mai...
