Why do I live in the city instead of at the lake? I don’t know of a more relaxing place on earth…
I’ve written before about my conflicted feelings towards the oil industry.

Those feelings could get a lot more conflicted soon. […]
In 2002, Shea and I joined my parents for two weeks in Kailua, Oahu. We’ve just confirmed that we’ll be going again in January 2012 which will be the tenth anniversary of our first trip! This time, Shea and I decided we’d like to see something different so we’re going to spend one week in […]
