Can you believe it is already November? Wow, this year is flying by! I want to apologize for not posting a Friday Finish last week. I was busy doing the final set up for a Homecoming Reception for my Alumni Chapter at ASU. We had a great event, and I thoroughly enjoyed reconnecting with good […]
My girlfriend often makes fun of me for being a travel snob. On a trip in April, she knew I tested her ability to pack an appropriately sized bag, swiftly go through security, and navigate any other aspect of flying. I’ll admit there is truth in this. In 2011, I’ll go on over 150 flights, […]
My last few weeks of travel have been visually amazing. I’ve enjoyed the fall colors present in West Virginia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Washington, Ohio, and Montana. As I flew out of Seattle today and saw the beautiful Pacific Northwest below me, I couldn’t help being amazed by the kaleidoscope of colors below. The reds. The yellows. […]
So today’s entry has nothing to do with technology, but rather just a really great way to enhance a club leadership day at your school. I had the great opportunity to present at Eisenhower High School in Shelby Township, Michigan earlier today. The school hosted a great event combining various leaders from choir, drama, athletics, […]
So I got back to my hotel just before midnight last night and had to catch a 6am flight out of Montana this morning. I quickly powered up my new iPhone 4s and asked Siri, the mobile assistant, to set an early morning an alarm. Her reply: I’ve set an alarm for 4:15 am. Don’t […]
I’ve been doing a lot of travel this week, but it’s been great to see leaders in West Virginia, Pennsylvania, and Ohio. I can’t wait to depart for Montana tomorrow morning. I hope you’ve been having a great fall as well. Here are this week’s blogs. Posts by Patrick Get Curious Jack’s Room Posts by […]
Work brought me to the East Coast recently allowing me a brief visit with my cousins in Pennsylvania. Their seven-year-old son, Jack, graciously gave up his room for the night, providing me a place to stay. There is just no other way to say it. It was pretty cool. I was surrounded by everything that […]
He was staring at me. Okay, it was only for a minute or so, but I was surprised I kept his attention that long. After all, he wasn’t even one (or at least that is what my “baby-dar” was telling me) and this was a pretty exciting aircraft. Some freak out when a baby sits […]
I’m in the middle of a layover at the Houston airport. I’m back in the middle of my super busy fall season, and I’m really enjoying it. This week brought me a whole bunch of Link Crew Student Conference. If your high school doesn’t have Link Crew, or your Middle School doesn’t have WEB, do […]
Yeah, I know what you’re thinking… What?!?!? No, I’m not quitting my job right now (I really do love what I get to do), nor am I going to go on a rant about what things I hate or my frustrations. But I am going to write about quitting. This isn’t a blog saying “don’t […]
