@mycarson graduating from UNO with her MPA.
Not the best view or camera, but I guess it’s the thought that counts.
Just unboxed @mycarson ‘s Nook. I gave it to her as a graduation gift for finishing her masters.
Tech
After being talked into the field of Computer Science by a tour guide at Midland Luthern College in Fremont, Nebraska, I joined the program at Simpson College in 1998 and got my first computer ever that Christmas. Though I got a late start, I dove in head first. I received my Bachelors in Computer Science […]
Moving…
I/We are officially moving. We’re moving houses as well, but I was talking about my blog. It has been hosted with Newtek (formerly Crystaltech, http://thesba.com/) and running on BlogEngine.NET (http://dotnetblogengine.net/) for years and it seems like I spent more time updating it then posting. I know that’s mostly my fault since I enjoy the technical side […]
Interesting approach for Quora
I’m no writer, and really I’m not much for answering or asking questions on Quora, but I love to read it. I could easily go down the rabbit hole and spend all day reading questions and answers on here. It seems like everyone is a master at something. I’m sure I could be helpful in […]
My Playing Career
I am originally from Newton, IA. I grew up playing any sport I could. I started playing YMCA soccer at 5 years old, flag football and basketball at 9. I also started tee ball at 5 and baseball was always my favorite sport. For soccer, I got involved with NASA, the Newton Area Soccer Association, […]
Tagxedo

You can plug in different websites, twitter ID’s and search terms to create a neat tag cloud of the words you use. Here’s an example of mine. I uploaded a graphic and adjusted […]
Dell Support, argh
I kind of feel like Jeff Jarvis here complaining about Dell Support, but I guess my issue isn’t near as bad as his was. Overall I have never had any problems with them and trust me I have dealt with them a lot. My personal computers have mostly been Dell and the companies I’ve worked […]
Apps, Apps, & more Apps
I’ve used an iPod Touch for a year and a half and Windows Mobile for about 5 years, but this is my first Android phone and I think the 1 key difference everyone would agree on is – the apps. Other than the iPhone OS, the other operating systems can be on about any piece […]
Reaching Out
I’ve enjoyed the blogging and social networking, but I don’t really have the type of personality to always talk about myself or to start conversations. I’m more the type that likes to jump in when I think I have something good to offer, but I often don’t want to intrude either. These lines have changed […]
