Our technological infirmity

Author: ocracokewaves

A now sane individual who escaped the world of selling technology, now living in the rolling hills of the North Carolina Piedmont. I have been at one time or another, a farmer, a director for Apple, and a vice president at Wideopen Networks. I continue to pursue my love of photography and writing. I have great memories of boating, fishing, kayaking, swimming, and hiking the beaches along North Carolina's Southern Outer Banks where we lived for fifteen years.

We each achieve greatness in our own way but what do perfect rolls have to do with it?  This article has some thoughts on approaching greatness but great rolls are not the answer unless rolls are your mission in life.

The Blizzard of 2016 might have its birthplace near us, but we are innocent bystanders.  Many of us moved here to escape snow.

Raymond’s Gut, January 9, 2016

The air temperature made it to 67F today.  Can we actually call that winter?  We might as well since we know that winter cannot be far away.
