Salutations men & women of the cloth (and of the Internet)! Our beloved Andy Grove who delivers his dear reader(s) weekly with best practices has become buried this week, so in his stead, I will be leaving my video format to bring to you “Best Practices”! Allow me to dust off my thesaurus and wordsmith [...]

Ladies and gentlemen of the Internet, your beloved Best Practices blogger has been accused of chicanery and shenanigans! <Pause for horrified collective gasp> I know… I know… I can’t believe it myself. Unfortunately however, it’s true. There are, sadly, those out there whose jealousy runs deep in the black cavernous tunnels of hatred they call veins. I [...]

The sun has once again returned to my beloved city of Austin, and thus I am once again my happy-go-lucky, cheerful self. Thanks be to God for this Ash Wednesday full of brightness and vitamin C. It’s put me in such a good mood that I’ve even forgiven someone for cooking fish in the microwave [...]

At the moment, today’s Best Practices looks like much of the east coast… cold, unforgiving, and covered with white and not much else. I hope everyone out there is staying warm as you continue to be hammered by snow. Normally I would complain that it’s cold here, but since I can still see things out [...]

Today is Wednesday, and it is raining heavily in my beloved Austin, Texas. The weather forecast calls for rain for the next 48 hours at least. I don’t recall having seen the sun since this weekend. What, you might ask, does any of this have to do with a blog post about best practices for [...]

The intrepid souls that populate the halls of faithHighway are so devoted to their work, that some choose even to come to the office when infected with unidentified strains of the influenza virus. While I admire their devotion, if someone here gives me the flu or any [...]

Greetings and salutations to you, my loyal reader(s) on this, the penultimate day in the year of our Lord, two thousand and nine. I bet you didn’t know that a sentence could have that many commas and not violate some unspoken rule of grammar. Actually I may have, but because this is a blog and [...]

Well, it has been a quiet week in Lake Wobegon… which is not my home town. Actually, it really hasn’t been a quiet week at all… I just like A Prairie Home Companion a lot. I trust that you, my loyal reader(s) have had an excellent week since our last exchange. Unfortunately, I spent most [...]

A very good Wednesday to you, my loyal reader(s). Here’s hoping that your week has been filled with warmth and joy in this, the very best time of year. No, this post will not be written in verse, nor will it rhyme. Apologies to anyone who was looking for poetry, but I must stress that [...]
