Is it “Binge” Worthy?

I am a sleep technologist full time. Naturally, when I see articles related to sleep, I read them. The American Academy of Sleep Medicine recently took a survey to find out what keeps us up at night. Coming in at #4 - Playing video games. 59% of men and 42% of women do it. Coming … Continue reading Is it “Binge” Worthy? →

What’s in a name?

The title of this blog is a reference to a great quote by William Shakespeare: Based on Mr. Shakespeare's quote, names really shouldn't matter that much. I think many of us would disagree with him. I mean, a name is often the first thing we learn about a person, right? It is also one of … Continue reading What’s in a name? →

Favorite Films – The 2000’s

It's been a couple of weeks since I picked back up on this series of blogs, so I thought I had better.

What’s Up, Doc?

This week I found out that the doctor's office where my primary care doctor practices is going private. To be honest, this is the first time I have ever had this happen.

When I worked in radio full time, I never considered myself a "star". I was a guy who worked on the radio trying to make a living.

I have followed blogs that feature movies, TV, music, nostalgia, positive … Continue reading Back in Time? →
