Dear Family, The phones have been ringing all morning. Usually, Friday mornings I get to work quietly to prepare this for you early in the morning (at least here, on the West Coast). Last night and early this morning the wind blew away all the smog. This dawned gloriously in California with the sun gleaming, […]
Dear Family, Do the weeks seem to fly by faster and faster? Whew! It was just Monday a few minutes ago. OK, the big excitement this week was Congress pushing through the HIRE Act – and President Obama signed it immediately. Kind of surprised my friends at IRS when I called first thing yesterday morning. […]

Dear Family, This was an exciting week, wasn’t it? A pilot died in flight – the passengers land safely in Newark. Lakers fans riot in Los Angeles. IRS announces a crackdown on employee cell-phone deductions – then retracts it. Iranian protester break past government-imposed Internet roadblocks to Twitter their dissent. President Obama provides certain job-related […]
Dear Family, Sheesh…running late today because I’m answering all the e-mails coming in this morning about tomorrow’s class. It looks as if I’ve found a meeting system that addresses the learning environment better than the general conference systems. We’ll be trying it out this weekend. And if you’re interested in the results, ask me and […]
