Friday Morning Fix - July 10th, 2009

Ok. Let’s get this part out of the way first - Michael Jackson was a musical genius. He will go down in the history books alongside the likes of the Beatles and Elvis Presley who, no doubt, would have been thrilled to see his only daughter marry the King of Pop (as she did in [...]

Exclusive Interview with Governor Sarah Palin!

Alaska Governor Sarah Palin is no stranger to controversy and has no problems with bucking the system. Since her arrival on the national political scene last Fall she has rewritten the rule book and lived up to the moniker “Maverick” – sometimes to her own detriment.
Therefore, it’s no surprise that instead of appearing on [...]

I’m sold on Amazon’s 6″ Kindle…Really!

There are two types of people in the world - those who embrace new technologies and those who brush them aside. Sure, there are a few people in the middle but, for the most part, each of us falls into one of the two categories. When Amazon launched their first proprietary wireless reading device in [...]

Resurrecting “The Xpatriot” by Randall H. Miller

In 2004, while living and teaching in the Dominican Republic, I wrote a fictional novel entitled The Xpatriot. I wrote, published, and marketed the book on my own until it ran out of steam at just over 1,000 copies sold (not too shabby). I then canceled my contract with the publisher and pulled it from [...]

Talking Terrorism With University Students in the Dominican Republic

I gave a lecture on 21st Century Terrorism this morning at the prestigious Universidad IberoAmericana (UNIBE). To date this was one of the larger and more enthusiastic university audiences I have had the pleasure to talk to. Special thanks to all who made my visit possible, especially my former student Vanessa who knows how to [...]

Friday Morning Fix - July 3rd, 2009

There was so much to choose from this week while preparing “the Fix” that I’m still scratching my head as I click the “publish” button. Do I address the perfectly executed - yet universally denounced - coup in Honduras. Or do I spend time pontificating on the out of control spending of the U.S. Congress [...]

Friday Morning Fix - June 26th, 2009

I love music. As a result, I felt obligated to include at least a minor tribute to the late Michael Jackson in this week’s Friday Morning Fix. From my youngest days I remember the music of the Jackson 5, especially Michael. I spent many a night on roller skates while listening to his first solo [...]

Friday Morning Fix - June 19th, 2009

Before I get into the “Fix” this week I’d like to address my recent exclusive interview with Governor Sarah Palin. The idea for the “interview” occurred to me while watching the Sunday morning political talk shows with my father (i.e. father/son bonding). In all honestly, I thought it would be instantly recognized as satire (which [...]

Friday Morning Fix - June 12th, 2009

It’s election day in Iran and tensions are almost as high as they were in the U.S. in 2008. According to polls, current Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad leads slightly over his main opponent Mir Hossein Mousavi. Amazingly, the candidates are not only acknowledging the importance of women voters, they are actually competing for their support. [...]

Camano Island Coffee - A Coffee That Helps You Sleep at Night

One of the things I like most about the internet and blogging (besides connecting with old friends and acquaintances) is meeting new people. Recently, a classmate and former Army buddy of mine introduced me to Dan Ericson, the head roaster of Camano Island Coffee Roasters(CICR). Anybody who knows me is painfully aware of how much [...]
