Yup, that’s me!

How’s it going up there? Well, I hope.

We think about you whenever we use that little teapot you gave us.

The electric car is still not finished, but I’ve got enough components to get it running now. I’m trying to assemble as much as I can before school starts up again.

It’s good to hear from you!

Later,

Doug

No, I’m not one of the developers of WordPress. I was talking about updating the particular copy of WordPress that runs this blog.

It’s all working again now.

Thanks for dropping by, and I’ll see you on the EV List!

Yes. I made it with iPhoto, using some photographs I took this year.

I made it into a slideshow with music. iPhoto included the “Ken Burns” panning effect and transitions between the photos.

Then I exported the slide show as a Quicktime movie.

All done!

As one who has been edited and coached by her, I must say, your assessment of your as awesome is accurate.

Hi Marty,

Glad to hear you’re OK. Sounds like you got the best possible heart attack

I’m also glad you asked that question, it gives me a chance to talk about my favorite person.

My wife, Anna Paradox, is both a life coach and an editor of books. Two separate professions. Sorry if I was unclear.

She can’t edit your past life — but she can certainly work with you to edit your future life!

Life coaching is somewhat difficult to explain because it’s a fairly new field and isn’t yet part of our collective knowledgebase. Here’s how Anna describes it:

Imagine your life is a game. A life coach looks at your game and helps you play better.

She might very well be able to help you get more exercise. Drop her an email if you’re interested. She’ll set up a free telephone appointment with you and the two of you then decide if Anna can help you. And/or sign up for her free weekly email newsletter.

And as for her editing, she uses her life coach training and skills to

…help aspiring authors write the book that only they can write.

She helped edit two recent poker books, Elements of Poker and Professional No-Limit Holdem.

She has a great little $27 package called From Wishing To Writing that can get you past whatever’s got you stuck. There’s even a free preview you can download immediately.

Clearly I’m biased, but I think she’s the greatest thing ever. Please check out her web sites if you’re interested.

Wishing you health and happiness,

Doug
