‘The Last Lecture’

If you have 10 minutes to spare for the shortened version, or an hour and a half for the whole thing, YouTube Randy Pausch’s “The Last Lecture.” You’ll be glad you did, I guarantee it.

Movie weekend

“21 Jump Street,” “Sherlock Holmes” and “The Hunger Games” this weekend. Safe to say I had my share of popcorn. On a scale of 1 to10 I give them a 6, 8 and 7.

Ready, go

Seattle and back in less than 24 hours. After almost three years of being in the Northwest, I’m glad I finally made it there. I need to revisit in the summer. It’s more enjoyable then, I’d imagine.

The song you wake up to is the most control you have in the direction of the day. Choose wisely.
