Answering the Bell

Man, I'm dragging this morning, but I'm ready for a challenging week at the office. Just a few quick things. I've gone ahead and added an easy-to-find Amazon link. It's in the right sidebar, after the endorsements. If you access Amazon from

The Weekend Eudemon

All hail Bell's Brewery [http://www.bellsbeer.com/] in Kalamazoo, their Amber Ale, and the German Beer Purity Law. I'm back off the wagon! I talked with Bell's brewmeister (referred to as the "Production Manager," but I can forgive them that staid

The Light Eudemon

I said yesterday that I hate meetings, except for ones at a bar. I forgot one other qualification: except when I'm getting paid to attend them. Such was the case last night. My best client required my attendance at a meeting, with the result that I didn'

The Wednesday Eudemon

Good riddance to February. Brutal month of weather, and it began and ended with challenging weekends. March will be better. It's my birthday month, so at a minimum I'll get some presents. I knew it! Meetings make us dumber, study shows [http://www.msnbc.msn.com/

Monday Moanin' Eudemon

Whew, exhausting weekend. Long story short: Weekend company (good folk, but company is company), combined with a group father-son trip to the Pistons game yesterday. We were supposed to take the Hummer limo, but the two guys eligible to drive it backed out, leaving me with their tickets to peddle.

Yikes, Couldn't Wait Until Tomorrow

> Evidence from a video obtained by the BBC points to the stomach-churning possibility that healthy babies born in a Ukrainian maternity hospital were taken their mothers and then murdered so that large amounts of stem cells could be harvested from their brains and bone marrow.

Eudemon Readers Unite!

I didn't realize it, but the Catholic Blog Awards have finished nominations and now they're voting [http://catholicblogawards.com/2007/ballot]. Voting ends in four days. Go now! Free beer for everyone who votes for me! (that worked in college). I voted for myself in Funniest

Podcasts and a Great Board Game

My daughter bought a video iPod with babysitting money and a little cash input from us at Christmas. I've started borrowing it and have plunged into the world of podcasting. There's a lot of neat stuff out there, and it's mostly free. Unfortunately, there&
