It will be interesting to see how the ChromeBook shakes out. If it can hold up like my current laptop...wait, my current laptop is in the shop again. Strike that. Reverse.

Is DC playing fast and loose with numbers?
No, this isn't about the federal government shuffling statistics to make things look better - although that would not be surprising. This is about a report in USAToday about the District of Columbia Public Schools having some very questionable results... Continue reading

Interesting thoughts, there - I've heard others suggest that Google could be in for some surprises from Facebook.

Decline of Facebook - NOT
Douglas Rushkoff posted an interesting article a couple of days ago predicting that Facebok's days are numbered. It's an interesting article and worth reading. While it's inevitable that Facebook will fade eventually, I don't see that happening in the foreseeable future. MySpace, AOL, et all dec...

New story. I put the Cop Comedy on hold because Darling Emily took over.
Darling Emily is about a woman who adores Emily Dickinson, writes poetry and is convinced that she will be totally destroyed by a handsome stranger. She is right. Lemme know what you think of the first chapter... 1. Leticia and Emily Leticia Walker Reed was considerably more attractive than s...
A wonderful tribute, Kevin. Both Craig and Raul will be missed not only locally but far beyond for all their contributions to theatre and community.

My Car Ride With Craig Noel
I worked at the Old Globe Theatre (as it was then known, now it's The Globe Theatre) from 1984 to 1989. There I saw many things and learned a lot about how theatre works and how theatres work. And one day, I was the only one who could pick up Craig Noel and take him to his recently repaired c...

TypePad for Dummies
In 2008 we were approached by some TypePad bloggers about the possibility of writing a "For Dummies" book for TypePad. Naturally we said - YES! Absolutely. If they were prepared to take on the gargantuan task of capturing all the secrets of this little application onto the printed page then who ...

Fixing Education - A Suggestion
Previously I compared public education and Communism. The comparison was not good for either system, but there is good news - at least for public education. We have seen that in general the only way to "improve" Communism is to... Continue reading

Communism and Public Education - the Worst of Both Worlds
Last we saw the Recovering Teacher, he had just compared Public Education with Communism. Since he wasn't sent to Siberia (or East LA), let's see what he has to say this time... I want to follow up on my Communism... Continue reading

I'm starting to feel "out of the loop" not having a smart phone. Up until now I didn't see a need for it, but with the apps they are coming out with, maybe it's time to start looking at them more seriously. As for replacing the PC, I think desktops at least have already been replaced.
