Life Goes On
So I’m back from Utah. Quite a trip. I left New Jersey Monday morning at ~7:00AM EST and touched down in Utah ~11:00AM MT. It only dawned on me when I got into the office there that it was quite...

So I’ve Started the Journey…
A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. Man, I can remember just a few months ago when NHibernate had almost no documentation (and what little it had was terrible). Now it’s a 145-page beast. Okay, not...
Of Crack and World of Warcraft
No, this post probably isn’t what you think it’s about. Yes, World of Warcraft is like crack in its addictiveness and its ability to ruin your life. One of my college roomates, Joe, has a townhouse around the corner from...
