It’s been more than a week and I must say I am hooked watching the Olympics. I diligently watched them during my vacation (which included riding dune buggies along Lake Michigan) so I am a little woozy.

Speaking of woozy, I was glad to see President Bush placed clean boating on par with the Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008.

And better yet…

Matrix is 3 years old
Today it occurred to me that it has been 3 years this month (actually since August 1, 2005) since I began to write here. My first post was about appraisal pressure and my radio interview on National Public Radio, including sound effects. In speaking about this issue in the public domain back then, I felt like I was talking to a wall – not many understood or cared.

Matrix enabled me get the word out from my little corner of the world.

1658 posts later, it remains a labor of love, content subject to my moods and time. I have always seen it as thinking out loud and appreciate the public and private insights from those who read it. More to come. A lot of exciting things on my agenda this year.

…thanks for reading.
