The early hour made for restless travel from New York earlier today and I...
I'm in Connecticut today. I came here at the behest of a client. The client feels that one of the other vendors on the project needs a bit of babysitting. How it's come to be my job to babysit her vendor I don't know. But...

When I was younger I remember learning about faith at church. One teacher presented a challenge for the class. "How do you know New York City is real if you've never seen it?"
