A busy day, a fun lunch in Seattle, a little fun exercise this afternoon and finished off with dodging the rain for an hour or two wacking some weeds and finishing the clean up started last weekend around and under the deck in the greenbelt behind the house. Now I was a little upset by what I found, and knew there were a couple of…
And 2011 starts the way 2010 finished…
There was a lot of change over the F1 off-season. New tires, rear wings, aero regulations, more power for the stewards and of course politics by the truckload. However last night all that mattered for nothing and the cars ran in anger for the first time. Discovery-one, not much changed. Sebastian Vettel and Red Bull is the class of the field. If his maturity can…

Seattle 1 – Houston 1
Another immensely entertaining game at Royal Brougham Park (or Qwest as some insist on calling it), the result was not great, but if Seattle continues to play like they have in the first three games then it’s going to be a great season. You can pretty much substitute what I had to say after the LA and NYRB games here and be close. Chances, misses…
The freedom…
One thing I’ve discovered over the last few years, there are many ways for people to be unhappy, but happiness a far narrower path to follow. This is an emotional time of year, and lets be fair the last 18 months has been brutal at times. I made some tough choices and today I’m more content than ever with where I am. There is more…
Out of the office and…
I have been out of the office in meetings over the last couple of days, it’s been nice to spend a little time outside in this weather. This was the view from the car park at the partners, blue sky, white clouds and mountain on the horizon. I like this.
A couple of days in the sun and…
A couple of days in the sun has reminded that the summer is on the way. And maybe more important what a great summer it’s going to be. I’ve said it before, work has been tough and we are in the midst of some significant changes in responsibility between partners and ourselves. It’s causing significant work and there are a couple of processes that can…
I was just looking, not buying
Compared to yesterday I felt so much better today, it’s amazing how good not being hungover felt. Not quite good enough to actually buy beer, but well enough to at least peruse the beer aisle in Top Food in Snohomish. I had to drop some paperwork off with my lawyer and then stopped by the post office to pick up some mail certified mail. It…
New York 1, Sounders 0
It seems like there should be a lot to be excited about for tonight’s game in New York. For Red Bull it’s the season opener in a stadium that only opened last year, for a team that won it’s conference (OK, a weak conference, but they still won) last year (and is hotly tipped to repeat that), has Thierry Henry and one of the brightest…
Another interesting day
I got a lot done outside the house, not everything I wanted too, but the weather was beautiful and it seemed a shame to be inside. It’s been an emotional couple of days, in part it’s that time of year, and in part there are more discoveries about that house and what someone thinks is acceptable. At least I know the court stuff is going…
