My coach is fundraising, so here’s a plug on my blog to support that effort

The San Diego Gulls alumni are getting together again for a match against the US Armed Forces. Admission is $5 (cheap, isn’t it?) Next best thing to driving to Anaheim for a NHL Ducks game. Plus, I remember the Gulls getting into lots of fights when they played the Fresno Falcons some time ago, way before I got into hockey. Should be fun!

• Change The World Or Die Trying

  Time is the essence of life. It is something we all share. Each of us has a limited amount. How we use our time is the guiding force of our lives. How we spend our time tells other people who we are. We define ourselves by our use of time. We are what we do!

• Quote Of The Moment

  These are the July results of a hardworking internet entrepreneur, think 16-20 hours days, including weekends…it’s all about how bad you want it, f$%^ the 4-hour work week you fat lazy American slobs, working hard, and honestly, is the path to righteousness and fulfillment.
