Stopping hints

Disney Customer Service Keynote speaker onstage — Canada, 2015. Filling in for Lee Cockerell who was ill and needed someone to cover his commitment. There’s also a chance this was one of my own Disney Customer Service Keynote Speeches. Can’t recall exactly.

Hints, to know when to stop blogging prolifically:

When daily blogging feels like work.
That’s it. That’s the only hint that i hear.

Happy present moment.

Bonus and subconscious hint: When i wonder if prolific blogging keeps me from finishing my ‘impossible’ book project.

How much is just right?

The question every generation wrestles with…

How much is just right?

When you think about what you want to do with your life, remember this, if you underestimate your potential, you’ll waste it.

Half a lap

high school track sprint in black and white — 1977. Can’t tell if this is the 440 or the 220 finish tape. The background bleachers indicate this is the 220.

Was a good 100 yard sprinter in High School. Then senior year, Tim Hawkins took my spot as our team’s fastest 100-yard dash sprinter.

It was healthy to have my “bubble burst”.

i was a very good 220 yard sprinter. Was never beaten by a teammate. Ever. A few rival schools had faster 220 sprinters.

Humbly (hopefully), i was an excellent 440 sprinter.

Note: Sophomore year a rival team put their soon-to-be 100-yard Pennsylvania High School 1975 State Champion against me. It was my only loss in three years of York County competition, including being three-time County Champion. Scott Fitskee was second in the 220 and Long Jump at States. 1975 results here.

Fix it when the sun shines

13-second video: Having fun (like i always do) at Disney University’s Stage Door Cafe.

twilight moon and planet — Last night. Watering some plants. Enjoying the last bit of light from a delightfully warm January 31st.

Long ago i knew i had to live next to palm trees and daily sunshine (warmth).

Note: Born and raised near Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. Intimately familiar with freezing-cold temperatures and long, drawn-out cloudy winters, lasting for what seemed to be six-months long.
