The Active Rain Stage, Blogging and Authenticity - 10/15/07 01:48 PM
I've written about authenticity in the past, as I feel pretty strongly that it is correlated with personal success. While that isn't today's thrust, I just want to assure you that this isn't about $140 pants, fashion, or the like. This is about authenticity in blogging.
My eldest son is a computer geek. He laughs at me on a regular basis, which I just LOVE!
Yesterday, we happened, he and I, to have a conversation about blogging. He's impressed that his aging mother even "gets" the topic, let alone DOES it, which I ALSO LOVE!
I mentioned to him that the anonymity … (13 comments)

AR, the National Cocktail Party, and the Green Homes - 10/10/07 10:04 AM

The OLED: a TV that stagers will LOVE! - 10/01/07 09:34 AM
One simply needs two walk through one Circuit City, or Best Buy to understand how electronics-crazy we currently are. Being a household with three children (ages 22-12), our family consumes our share. But, not until going into staging did I realize the density of this consumption. Silly Jaynee.
In and around the DC area, I have staged homes with TVs in kitchens, in formal living rooms, in every bedroom. How about a TV in a 3-year-old's room, with a PlayStation and two remotes on a swivel base, so he can play it from his bed, or from the recliner across the room. How … (17 comments)
