Like a Sitting Duck
This past Saturday morning was one of those moments that will be difficult to forget. It started out like almost every other Honolulu Saturday morning for me. Slept in a little bit (compared to a work day). Caught the bus … Continue reading

Unclosed Loop: How to Think
The floor of my digital mind is littered with reflections that didn’t make it to this site. At the end of December, I started titling a handful of entries with the phrase “Unclosed Loop.” It’s a reference to something I … Continue reading
