Hey, if you’ve got a minute, I hope you’ll help one of your fellow readers. Last week, I started out a new series of posts with what I would do with one day in Sydney. We had a few readers join with their stories,…
I’ve said more than once (heck more than a couple dozen times) that if you want great BBQ, you go to Texas. Texas has some really great BBQ. Black’s is one of my favorites, and I enjoy Iron Works in Austin proper. Hard 8…
Franklin BBQ was definitely a rare treat that I likely wouldn’t have gotten to enjoy had it not been for Austin MegaDO 3. While I wasn’t a huge fan of their brisket, the ribs and turkey were outstanding.

In my haste to write about the big donation to LIVESTRONG I had forgotten the pictures I took of the LIVESTRONG HQ. Walking in, we were greeted by a newspaper box filled with LIVESTRONG bands. With the impending death of the newspaper industry, it’s good…
I’m on my way back from Austin, Texas. Randy Petersen and I showed up at LIVESTRONG headquarters today to discuss a bigger relationship between Milepoint and LIVESTRONG. We had in tow with us a check for $25,000 from the members of Milepoint. The meeting…
