I Remember Fondly
I still use AIM. Do you? See this article.
I have some fun once in a while on AIM Fight.
I sure wish AIM Pages had worked.
Twitter feels like AIM status messaging to me introduced in 1996.
AIM was the first online product to dazzle and delight people.
AIM was fun. Light. Easy to use.
It worked. It scaled.
At its height, 14 million people around the world were using it at the same time!
It was an inspiration to many.
The first social network.
The first virally marketed product.
Kudos to the pioneers behind this great product and service from AOL. The good ole days!
Nostalgia is good but I still use AIM. I am proud to say that, too.
Elvis
The Summer of 1956.
Elvis – a phenomenon is being born.
Shake, rattle and roll.
He changed the world.
An “outstanding show biz personality.”
This is Elvis at his youngest and most beautiful; hip shaking; and singing country. Authentic. One of a kind.
A great documentary on SnagFilms.com. Watch and smile.
To Each Their Own
A good analysis by the Washington Post here.
I agree.
But we must also factor in life in a new NBA with whatever new CBA is negotiated.
The draft is the best way to rebuild a franchise. Having many young assets also helps you when you need to make trades.
Having cap space also allows you to fill in around your young core via free agency.
Rebounding is important. And toughness.
And playing playoff caliber defense and having your players peaking and healthy all at the same time.
There is a definite sea change in the NBA right now. Youth must be served.
Durant. Westbrook. Rose. Deng. Noah.
All high draft picks.
It works.
Graduation
We are very proud parents. Our son just graduated from the University of Pennsylvania on time and with great grades.
Time flies. It seems like yesterday when we dropped him off at college.
UPenn is a great institution and they took care of our son quite well. Thank you.
One down – one to go.
Crazy Wisdom
Jack – On The Road.
Allen Ginsberg – Howl.
A school for Buddhists.
And writers.
Huh?
Watch this film. Learn about it all on SnagFilms.com. Thank you.
Wish the Mystics Well
Camp has opened.
A news season with new personnel and a new look and feel is about to begin. Thank you Washington Post for the coverage.
Thank you to Inova Health System for believing in us and the WNBA.

I Don’t Always Agree with What They Write

They work hard and have fun and interesting video editing and photos and they are quite creative. Thank you. Link love here. Best coverage I have seen of the event to date.

Well done.
