Random Summer 2011 Thoughts

Here we are square in the middle of a disappointing summer. Disappointing in so many ways, but one of the certainly has to be the weather. In the greater Seattle/Tacoma region we can't seem to break out of the gray, wet mold and cannot break into warmer weather for what seems like any more than 2 days.

Anyway, I'm back from a few weeks off and had a series of thoughts come into my head while I was away from the studio. I thought that I would share them with you. Some of them might be familiar to you if you follow me here or on Twitter/Facebook, so please bear with me.

• Apple Computers no longer cares about their image in the professional world. They will cater to the amateur and consumer market from now on if it means a few more bucks in their pocket. 
• Loyalty doesn't matter anymore.
• Nevada really is a desolate place.
• The worst roads in the Western U.S. are in Washington State.
• The cop that gave me a speeding ticket earlier this month is a moron.
•  Bill O'Reilly can't see the big picture. 
• Jeffrey Immelt is a moron! 
• I have a story to tell and can't articulate it. 
• My kids are awesome!
• Idaho speed limit going in and out of Boise is 75 mph but desolate Nevada is 70. Someone explain that to me please?
• The stalemate over the debt limit is going to bankrupt us all. 
• Soccer is awesome! 
• D.C. has a spending problem. 
• Last time a company tried to drive the market (i.e., new coke) it failed! 
• Netflix is now following Apple's lead in "how to piss off your customers."
• Watercolors are more difficult than they appear.
• Las Vegas needs a face lift.
• Is sunshine overrated?
• New York City could be my next home. 
• College financing is way too complicated. 
• I hope my son appreciates what we try to do for him. 
• I hope my parents know how much they let me down. 
• I still love babies.
• Heaven is for real! 
• The NFL lockout may be a good thing for everyone except for players. 
• Someone is making a lot of money on high gas prices-it isn't me. (I wish it was)
• Life was sometimes easier before technology invaded our lives. 
• I am getting too old for some things. 
• Why do mochas have to have so many calories? They are sooo good! 
• It is still better that one guilty person go free than one innocent person be locked up. 
• This was supposed to be the year of video. Really? 
• Dog hair. 
• "It could be worse..." is not a good defense of the economy. 
• Why do hotels have the worst channels of television in their lineups? 
• Charelston, S.C.- NOT going there in January.  
• Jeffrey Immelt is still a moron.
• "Finding Bigfoot" the television show is hillarious. 
• Why should I print my digital photographs? (I'm currently writing a blog post on this topic).
• Military exercises.

I know that there are a lot more in my mind, but this is what I am thinking about today.

What is on your mind?
