I'm a patriotic American. You'll read perspectives on politics, government and what our Founders intended.
I'm a person of Christian faith. You'll see me "coping" with my own challenges here, and hopefully you'll get a sense of how faith plays a part. G.K. Chesterton said, "We're not human beings having a spiritual experience. We are spiritual beings having a human experience."
I believe most of the mainstream media is slanted. We deserve better. Weblogs are (at a minimum) a new form of personal journalism. We'll talk about both.
Technology has been important to me for many years. It's the career I've chosen. We'll cover a wide variety of topics - from wireless to bandwidth to software to how to manage information technology and more.
I love music and home entertainment systems as well as software. My family if full of musicians - 2 pianists, a violinist, a ballerina, an organist, a guitar player, a flutist, a bassoonist(?) and 3 singers. Yet, there are only 5 of us!
There will be book reviews from time to time. I read a lot.
As a value investor, I'll occasionally write about Warren Buffett, Berkshire Hathaway and other individuals and companies that fall into that school of thought.
In the late 1980's I became deeply involved in the methods that companies could employ to find excellence in their operations and their service to customers. In 1991 I attended Philip Crosby's Quality College. I began to learn about W. Edwards Deming, statistical process control, Donald Wheeler, Six Sigma, operations research and process reengineering. That has been the focus of my working life for the past decade. Those topics are bound to find their way into much of what you see here.
