https://contentdoctor.net/2015/01/25/10-things-i-learned-writing-a-daily-blog-for-a-year
January 25, 2015 /. 10 things I learned writing a daily blog for a year. I had the blog idea rattling around in the back of my mind for a few months before actually sitting down and just doing it. The idea was simple: choose one Grateful Dead selection from their extensive live releases each day for a year and write about it. The project was called Dead For A Year. It takes a lot more time than you realize. At first I just picked a song, posted a streaming version if I could find one, and wrote up a few ...

http://portablediner.blogspot.com/2014/10/the-lie-of-transferrable-skills-for-phds.html
Short, digestible, food for thought on subjects as varied as music, jobs, education, and any other daily minutia that comes to mind. Thursday, October 9, 2014.

Who to blame next year when the Blackhawks don't repeat? For full disclosure, I am a die-hard Detroit Red Wings fan, but I can readily admit that I prefer the Blackhawks. To be a strong team rather than the weak shell of a team that they were for the past decade.*. Tuesday, July 27, 2010. This is what happens when you marry a history nerd. Everyone ...

Lunchbox's Portable Diner: November 2013
http://portablediner.blogspot.com/2013_11_01_archive.html
Short, digestible, food for thought on subjects as varied as music, jobs, education, and any other daily minutia that comes to mind. Wednesday, November 13, 2013. I Am Walter White. I Am Walter White. Well, let me contextualize that statement a bit. I am not the Walter White of “Felina,” the final episode of Breaking Bad. I’ve had careers coaches tell me not to take the hiring process personal, and that’s great advice. It’s also very true that who. There has been a lot of talk in recent years that Denver...

Short, digestible, food for thought on subjects as varied as music, jobs, education, and any other daily minutia that comes to mind. Tuesday, July 15, 2014.

http://portablediner.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
Short, digestible, food for thought on subjects as varied as music, jobs, education, and any other daily minutia that comes to mind. Sunday, June 20, 2010. So you want to teach? The problem is when meeting new people or explaining "what I do" the first thing that 99% of people say is some variation of "so you want to teach? While neither question is a fun one to answer, at least the former doesn't reduce people of high education to an extremely narrow field. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

After a quiet evening in Davenport, we got up early, managed to adjust the mirrors on the truck (FINALLY! Some random thoughts while driving through Nebraska:. 1 If one were to pick an interstate and drive from end to end, stopping at every "Americana" site along the way, how long would it take to make the trip?
