  • Blog Post #61: What makes a champion team?

    I watched the Manchester Derby with a friend this morning, and once again, Manchester City got the chocolates at home, beating the once invincible Manchester United 3-1. They didn’t make it easy, and at half time, United were leading. But three goals in the second half is always going to be a challenge very few…

  • Blog Post #60: Spring is in the air

    It’s technically Spring, but today, it finally felt like it. 17 degrees Celsius (62 for our NA followers) isn’t what I would consider hot, but while we were walking along the river to go to our favourite deli for a Reuben, we were in t-shirts and shorts within 10 minutes. Denver is well known for…

  • Blog Post #59: Trump, the moderate? Part 1

    I was listening to an interesting podcast today, and in it the commentator set forth what I thought was a very interesting hypothesis: Trump, rather than Biden, is actually the moderate candidate in the 2024 election. I’m going to try and unpack this, and see if I can use writing as a way to organise…

  • Blog Post #58: Google Gemini

    Don’t bother. We live in the AI revolution, which is a technology up there with the Gutenberg Press and the internet in terms of it’s ability to revolutionise the way we live our lives. Understandably, there has been a torrent of companies that have entered the arena to achieve the outsized returns for being the…

  • Blog Post #57: About last night

    Last night was a very short, and thus rather disappointing for my readers. I was pressed for time, and didn’t give it the effort it deserved. Below is what I meant to say: Some people have addictive personalities; I’m not one of them, and sympathise with those that do. But there is something that has…

  • Blog post #56: Phone away

    I’m going to no longer bring my phone to bed. It’s a safe space now.

  • Blog Post #55: Back home

    It’s nice to be back home. Your own bed. Your own pillow. No need for a wifi password or working out how the shower works. I love travelling, but it’s good to be home.

  • Blog Post #54: Holiday Over

    So, I’m back where it all started, sitting on a plane in Seattle, ready to head back to Denver. It’s been a great trip. It’s really been a three part experience. Firstly, friends. The man who was the best man at my wedding, one of my best friends since we first met more than 16…

  • Blog Post #53: Canucks

    With a night in Vancouver, my friends and I went to Rogers Arena to watch the NHL. It’s not usually my favourite game, but today was completely different. 2 goals down with six minutes to go, I though the local team, the Canucks, were done and dusted. Well, I was wrong. The team was able…

  • Blog Post #52: Heli Skiing

    Today I ticked off a true bucket list item; heli skiing with mates. If you’re in a hurry, I’ll keep it brief: it was great. There was 8 of us, Lachy, his dad, his brother, and four of his mates. We were meant to go yesterday, but due to the weather, we had to postpone.…
