Tuesday, October 10, 2006. Let Me Just Vent a Little. So this weekend Olga and I went with some friends to the " Awesome 80s Prom. It's sort of like Tony and Tina's wedding, but only at a prom set in 1989. It was good, because Olga got to experience American High School in just under 4 hours. And the bully and the jock were really actors. Not so awesome was the fact that I left my ATM card and driver's license there. I called Monday morning at 9 AM and Kevin answered: "Awesome 80s Prom this is Kevin.".

Saturday, October 22, 2005. Well, Yast has just informed me that lame is NOT an MP3 player. It's an educational tool for teaching people how to make MP3s. That's really beside the point. 'Cuz the new I-Tunes TV show feature IS lame. Really, really lame. I've become a big fan of the new show Lost. Before season two came out, I caught up on season one thanks to Bittorrent. Sure, downloads can sometimes take a whole day, but I'm pretty satisfied with Bram's. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Twitter Updates 2....

Saturday, May 29, 2010. A great 24 review from "The Economist.". Thursday, May 27, 2010. A mutual aid movement in the US? Reminded me of the movement, in Italy in the 1800s, to create " mutual aid societies. These self-help organizations were the cradle of both the cooperative and labor movements. Even organizations, like labor unions, are advocacy organizations. We're used to joining together, paying dues and electing, or hiring, someone else. No delegation. All self-management. When people start thinki...

http://matthancock.blogspot.com/2014/08/on-virtues-of-print.html
Monday, August 11, 2014. Leadership and the Virtues of Print. For as long as I can remember, the New York Times has been a part of my life. Even when our family's subscription may have lapsed, few days went by during my childhood when my father didn't have a copy within arms' reach. My parents, now divorced, still receive the New York Times, in print, delivered to their doorsteps. I thought of my decision to go all-in on print while reading this. New York Times piece on Harper's magazine. First, I've fou...

Monday, January 17, 2011. My 10,000 Hours. You know the oft-cited number of 10,000? As in, it takes 10,000 hours for someone to be really good at [insert thing here]. Well, I decided to try a little experiment on myself. This Christmas, we brought back the electronic piano my Mom bought for me when I went to college. It's been collecting dust for the better part of 10 years now. I found that I was really enjoying it. I'll keep you posted on progress. Here's the spreadsheet I mentioned:. Hours To Go 8615&...

Matt Hancock's Blog: A mutual aid movement in the US?
http://matthancock.blogspot.com/2010/05/mutual-aid-movement-in-us.html
Thursday, May 27, 2010. A mutual aid movement in the US? Reminded me of the movement, in Italy in the 1800s, to create " mutual aid societies. These self-help organizations were the cradle of both the cooperative and labor movements. Though the US does have a mutual aid tradition of its own, the dominant form of representation in civil society, at least in the 20th century, has been the advocacy model, as opposed to self help, or self-management. No delegation. All self-management. A great 24 review from...
