Thoughts of Brick: March 2008
http://thoughtsofbrick.blogspot.com/2008_03_01_archive.html
Thursday, March 27, 2008. Could I Teach About Twitter. And am constantly looking at Digg. This presentation was going to be in my wheelhouse. The presentation was given by the Director of ViNT. A research shop in the Netherlands. It was a great presentation, discussing the ways that the mass media is on the way out the door, and instead we now have "Me Media" It was fascinating. I got a chance to talk to the presenter at the bar afterwords and I think I impressed him. Links to this post. I have been craz...

The Life and Times of Pete Cailloux: 4x the Awesome
http://petejusthappened.blogspot.com/2011/03/4x-awesome.html
Friday, March 11, 2011. I'm currently working on a purchase for Amazon.com. I am getting a Thank You present for a friend, which costs $22.99. For the round $25 you can get free shipping with Amazon. So, why not try to find something that costs $2.01 instead of paying that or more for shipping? I considered my starting point. There have to be some "readable" books for that price, I thought to myself. How tough could that search be? As it turns out, very tough:. 311 - Meat: A Love Story. I'm trying to fig...

Thoughts of Brick: Running Update
http://thoughtsofbrick.blogspot.com/2008/07/running-update.html
Monday, July 14, 2008. I have to admit I am a little bit amazed that I have stuck to this little workout plan. I still feel better, though I am not seeing any visible benefits. I am sleeping better as well, except for a couple days I have been asleep before midnight, which is quite an accomplishment. Also I am going to be in the market for some new running shoes.

Thoughts of Brick: September 2007
http://thoughtsofbrick.blogspot.com/2007_09_01_archive.html
Wednesday, September 26, 2007. So this is the Future Generation? Yesterday I had the pleasure of heading back to my Alma Mater, the glorious UCLA (University of Catonsville, Left of Arbutus), for their annual Career Fair. This was the first fair I had attended and it was a little odd going in as an employer as opposed to a potential employee. It made me feel old. I don't want to be old. I am a Toys 'R' Us Kid. I didn't gather that by your glancing at your resume, your inability to answer my question, you...

Monday, June 30, 2008. I've Turned the Corner. No Really. So for the past three weeks or so I have been getting up every morning and tried to "Run" around my block. Now you may be asking why I have placed the word "Run" in quotes. There is a simple reason for this. It has been many many years since I have actually "Run". I would call what I am doing currently as accelerated walking. sort of. Uphill), left at Selford. With a little uphill and downhill) and then back onto Kelfield. To Francis and Selford.

The Life and Times of Pete Cailloux: Supporting the USPS
http://petejusthappened.blogspot.com/2012/01/supporting-usps.html
Tuesday, January 17, 2012. We all get letters from credit card companies, asking us to sign up for new credit cards, etc. Well, in those envelopes, there's always a return envelope saying "no postage necessary if mailed in the united states.". I want to bring your attention to another part of that envelope . Do you see how it says " postage will be paid by addressee. Well, instead of simply recycling the letters, why not send them back to the credit card companies. She gets to continue to work.

http://thoughtsofbrick.blogspot.com/2008/06/what-wonderful-ryanluck.html
Thursday, June 26, 2008. What a Wonderful Ryanluck. So a couple weeks ago my team at work decided that it would be an awesome idea to hold a little potluck to celebrate the fact that the remaining individuals were. well. remaining. Being the foodie I am I got all sorts of excited. Due to the varying food preferences. Within my group it was decided that Herbivore. Would be a great theme for the potluck.

http://thoughtsofbrick.blogspot.com/2008/05/interesting-time.html
Wednesday, July 2, 2008. With everyone seemingly losing their jobs around me I did what I thought I had to do. i posted my resume on Monster.com. This site is pretty cool). I decided that it was going to take a 10% raise to get me out of my current position. So I went home and tried to take my mind off of it. I didn't want to think about it. It was out of my hands at that point. You can't sweat the things you have no control over. THEY BEAT THE OFFER. The Winds Do Blow. Working for the Man. 5 Lose 15 lbs.
