So today we brought our bounty of donations to the local Wal-Mart for delivery to the needy families we have decided to help in honor of our clients.  It was a nice feeling to bring in the multiple carriages filled with Christmas gifts for needy children.  Here's a picture of my car, stuffed to the brim with all the seats down to carry the holiday loot.The workers were very appreciative and excited by our delivery, which I thought was them just being nice.  However, as I exited the store, I had to stop and take a picture of the tree, still stacked with tags for kids in need.  With only one week and day to go, it's clear the need is still quite large.  As I've said, I'm proud of the contribut...

This has absolutely nothing to do with technology, except for the fact that I am leveraging technology to write this blog post. Tonight, I was fortunate enough to hear a presentation that has the potential to change the world.  This afternoon, my 16 year old daughter called me to ask me to do something for her.  She asked me to go with her Mom to see a presentation of Rachel's Challenge at the high school.  She had seen it during school and was so moved by it that she wanted us to see it.  My wife and I went and were amazingly moved by Craig Scott's presentation.  If you ever have the opportunity to hear Rachel's Challenge, it is a must see event....
