The Adventures of a connected man in a connected age
The Beatles are back, but not digitally. My house is falling apart. The Mackenzie Phillips story gets me pissed off and Portland is a go.

It’s a day that kids look forward to with disappointment and all parents with elation. We have reached the end of summer and for us it has been a long and eventful one. Virginia went to her first sleep away camp with great success. She got to spend some quality play time with her favorite cousin and we spent a month in Portland, OR.
Like most parents, I look forward to a familiar routine and some quality quite time at home. I have plenty to do getting Connected World Media kicked into high gear and I need some serious focus time to do it.
Of course it’s a holiday weekend, so the fridge is on the fritz. Something with the freezer and a light that says call service. We’re trying to just get it to hang in there until Tues so I don’t have to pay extra for a holiday repair. The spa is also wants me to call service as well. Anything else want to break around here?
It’s been a long month of August as we spent our last month of summer in Portland, Or. Portland had it’s share of highs and lows but overall it was a good experience. That being said, it’s so good to be home. So good to be back in my own home, in my own bed. We have alot of work ahead of us to make the transition to Oregon real next year, but for now, I just want to sit back and relax for a moment. I need to get back into the flow of working Connected World Media as well. School is starting next week and we need to get Virginia ready for that.
Thank go0dness for the publc Internet . At this moment I am writing this blog at a car wash while waiting for the Chevy to be cleaned. After a month on the road, it’s a mess. They have a nice Internet terminal here curtesy of Cox and Dell.
I have lots of podcasting to get back to as well. Tonight I need to start thinkng about all new episodes of Rock and Roll Jew Show, Connected World Podcast and Some Dude From California. I also need to drop 15 lbs, but that’s another story.
