Tuesday, January 8, 2013 If you could be given the option to never sleep and also never be tired, would you take it if it meant you’d also never dream again? Well, no I would not. First, I believe sleep is about far more than simply not being tired – it is when my body […]

It has been making national headlines and causing quite the local stir. I wanna know if you are going. I wanna hear your thoughts on the […]

Didn’t have a taste for it until I lived in Baton Rouge in 1993 – that was my first experience of the “coffee house” experience – chicory coffee and beignets. I gained 30 lbs. Then I moved to rural Kentucky and basically […]
Friday, January 4, 2013 At what time of day do you feel the most energetic and productive? Wow, this varies. My natural rhythm is to be productive late at night, but the sleep regimin requires that I decompress earlier in the evening. Still, I occasionally wake up at 2 AM with an AWESOME idea and […]
