I think my ‘captcha’ batting average is 300 right now. Captchas are what we call those annoying boxes at the end of a form, or before you download a file.

I’ve landed a job after college, worked seven jobs at once, helped run a professional fraternity of over 130 people, joined 9rules, left b5media, met new people, learned new things. It’s been fun.

If you missed it, Denver was hit by a nice little blizzard on Wednesday. My house had over 20 inches of accumulation. Other places around the state had four feet. I’m just glad the power stayed on- I got a lot accomplished as far as Playstation 2 games is concerned. But, after a few hours in the house it’s pretty fun to go outside. Here’s a few ways we kept ourselves occupied.
While I’m nearly through with finals I’ve not quite crossed the finish line yet. This means there’s been a lot of studying lately. For many that means a lot less sleep. Well, if you’re like me and still working 15 hours a week you’ll probably wonder how you can get away with sleeping at work.
You may not realize it but your money right now is worth much more than you could imagine. What if I told you it was possible to turn $14,000 into $1,400,000 with no effort? No, this isn

On to business: you basically have two weeks left to get your holiday shopping done. If you’re like me you’re probably one of many things: a) lazy b) scared of large crowds of determined women or c) uncreative. Luckily the internet is here to remedy each of my shortcomings. Since I shop for nearly everything online these days: clothes, toys and yes, even food why not others’ gifts? I searched for some simple gift finding tools online and here is what I’ve found.
I was talking to Ian Ybarra the other day and realized that, although my days and weeks are largely planned out, what about the long term planning? Sure, I can prioritize the little tasks but what about the big picture? Do I know what it is I
