Written on the first anniversary of the attacks on the Twin Towers in New York City. A single small infant refutes and trivializes the terrorists lives and actions.

I am an Atheist

In which I puzzle over the silly things people find to fight about in the world. Don’t you people have something better to do with your time…?

Conscious Capitalism

I have a book that I am working on that is intended as a mass-market non-fiction book about how people spend money. Called “Conscious Capitalism” it makes the case that – no matter who you are – you are not powerless to make a difference in the world, and feel good about yourself.

All it comes down to is how you choose to spend your money.

The book is written from a very positive and energetic perspective. It is a “can do” set of examples and principles that you can put into place today, to make sure you spend your money as powerfully as possible.

Capitalism is not inherently bad. It just hasn’t been executed very well so far.

As they say, Money Talks and Bullshit Walks. Your money – every single dollar of it – can speak volumes if you spend it consciously and with a little forethought.

This is a guidebook for how to feel great about everything you buy. And it will also ensure that you are sending the right message to manufacturers: a message of responsibility, change, and sustainability.

Excerpts will be published here, as appropriate

“Sealing someone’s fate…”

I had a realization today, like a flash outta the blue…

I was reading “Plan B 3.0″, and it had the old line about something “sealing the fate of civilization”.

And suddenly I realized what an utterly moronic statement that is, because it assumes that there is an end, or final state to anything…. and that is just simply wrong. There is no END state!
