  • Millennials are making the online and in-store connection a reality

    Think back to the most important retail moments of the last 50 years. What would you put on your list of the top ten? The Great Recession of 2007 would surely make it, and perhaps the introduction of SUVs, along with other models. Most likely, the emergence of the Internet would be right at the […]

  • Five hundred miles

    Last night I reached an important milestone in my quest to outrun my own stupid shit and generate some positive personal electricity. I have, as of now, stepped approximately 554.54 miles. I’m on my second pair of shoes. I have overcome foot injuries, glute issues and the dreaded Hill Fear Syndrome. Yay. Me. In doing […]

  • Night crawler

    I often fall into bad cycles of insomnia – a sort of weird situation where my brain just won’t shut down even though my body craves rest. I wind up sitting around, reading news stories and Facebook posts, playing word games and generally wasting time. Just kind of staring into space, sucking in useless information […]

  • Cranky Donkey: Be a You Expert

    There are too many marketing wannabes and so-called self-proclaimed experts on social media. Far too many, in fact, and it’s become a bit of a problem: everywhere you go, there’s some guy or gal spouting off about how Twitter made them famous — and how it can make everyone a celebrity — or how to […]

  • Camaro v. Mustang: All American Bragging Rights

    Sit down, Toyota Camry. And you, Honda Accord — you may be as American-made as any car ever built, but this is about being American. That’s American as in apple pie, baseball, drive-in movies, bikinis and game shows. About the vehicles that have helped define the unique look and driving experience that created an emotional […]

  • Thunder and Lightning

    I have managed, over the past four years, to accept it. To embrace the stifling, sticky summers of Northern Virginia and thrive in the oppressive heat that normally hits this region in July and August. That’s saying something, too, because I grew up in the pleasant weather pattern of Southern California, with its gently blowing […]

  • They Go Together in the Good ‘Ole USA…

    From Riverside County to Julian, through the desert to 29 Palms, Tempe, Tucson, Calexico, San Diego and back to Riverside County, the 2007 Chevrolet Tahoe averaged 13.9 miles per gallon. At three bucks a gallon — and climbing — along with a 26-gallon tank, that’s almost $80 to go about 360 miles. In an old America that eats, drives and does what it wants, in an America that celebrates largess no matter what the cost, this means little. In today’s America, however, where heroes are drug-tested and kids are obese, where the amount of oil in the ground and the distance your car can go on one gallon matters – a lot – that tattooed 13.9 on the hood of the 2007 Chevrolet Tahoe is just not coming together for what people in the good ol’ USA really need.

  • Jeep Wrangler: Where the Road Ain’t

    Jeep Wrangler — Photo Gallery: As part of my evaluation of the 2007 Jeep Wrangler, I spent a day on the Rubicon Trail in Northern California and got up close and personal with the SUV, expanded my limits and learned a thing or two about Jeep, the Rubicon, and life on the rocky ledge. Stuck […]
