About a month ago I posted the following way-too-long blog entry on my 5k training at THE SHOP, an awesome nutrition & fitness blog run by one of the most avid enthusiasts around. I am now reposting it here as I will soon follow it up with a new blog on 10k training in preparationContinue reading “5k Training”

Sports Season Transition
There were two reasons to be depressed following the Super Bowl this year. The first was that Peyton Manning failed to win a second league championship. Colts special teams were poor and Manning couldn’t get any help at all from his receivers. Kudos to New Orleans, which played a great game of ballsy calls andContinue reading “Sports Season Transition”
Milestones
The last two weeks have been very, very active and full of milestones. At enistic, we’ve secured our first investors, our first resellers/installers/distributors, and–perhaps most importantly–our first clients! We still have a way to go to raise the money we need really to get this venture off the ground but this early momentum is very,Continue reading “Milestones”
Rice Baylor Merger
Blogger’s note: I no longer use the term “Redskins” but am leaving my prior references intact in the spirit of learning. What a glorious weekend for football! Not only did the Texans win, but Rice alum James Casey had some great plays! Also Peyton Manning and Brett Favre won. More than that, though, NEITHER RiceContinue reading “Rice Baylor Merger”
Beginnings and Endings
Blogger’s note: I no longer use the term “Redskins” but am leaving my prior references intact in the spirit of learning. Last Wednesday Katie and I went to dinner with an old friend and classmate, Nate, and his lovely wife. Nate and I were two of three Rice computer science 2001 graduates who started upContinue reading “Beginnings and Endings”
Domestic Hippies
I have completed my first week of life back in the US and what a productive week it has been! The time that I have not spent on enistic has been spent on very domestic activities. After unpacking my bags, Katie and I had to spend many evenings sorting through our stuff, deciding what toContinue reading “Domestic Hippies”
A Bad Week for the NFL
Blogger’s note: I no longer use the term “Redskins” but am leaving my prior references intact in the spirit of learning. This was a terrible, terrible week for the NFL! It started when Peyton Manning was knocked out of the playoffs. With no Peyton, no Favre, and no Redskins, what possible interest do I haveContinue reading “A Bad Week for the NFL”
Fight For Rice, Rice Fight On
The mighty Rice Owls completed one of their best seasons in school history last night when they beat the Western Michigan Broncos 38-14 in the Texas Bowl. We tailgated all afternoon with beer, sausage, and cheese. Cox and I, undefeated Champions of the Universe in two-on-two ocean football, added to our accolades as all-time undefeatedContinue reading “Fight For Rice, Rice Fight On”
Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow
I woke up this morning to a COLD apartment. I was so focused that I just threw on some warm clothes and immediately settled into job hunting activities. It wasn’t until I received an email a couple of hours later that concluded with “Enjoy the snow!” that I pulled my nose up out of myContinue reading “Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow”
Rice Football
Blogger’s note: I no longer use the term “Redskins” but am leaving my prior references intact in the spirit of learning. And speaking of football, my Redskins weren’t the only team to do well this weekend. Saturday after the Association of Rice Alumni board meeting, I had the pleasure to attend a Rice football gameContinue reading “Rice Football”
