All in all life is good. Now if only I could get my ToDo list a little smaller.

As a side effect I’ve begun to question decisions made in the past. We all do it. We wonder if we ever really learned from our mistakes. I can safely say I have learned from most.

As a result of the project we embarked on at work. I have noticed others around me get… well tired. The quality of product our team used to put out has changed.

I noticed that the more and more our LEGO user group does the more and more opportunities present themselves. We are going to do a very cool museum activity - display next year. Makes we wonder where the lines need to be drawn. There is such a thing as too much of a good thing.

I recently questioned a decision I made in college - not to take a job as a faculty member. I still kick myself. I know I would have my Ph.D. by now. Now I do not know when that will ever happen.

I just do not know where things are headed and right now… I am just not comfortable with the side effects.

function filter_xss($oValue, $sValidCharacters = "1234567890!@%-_=+:,./abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ")
{
for($iCounter = strspn($oValue,$sValidCharacters); $iCounter < strlen($oValue); $iCounter = strspn($oValue,$sValidCharacters))
{
$oValue[$iCounter] = '_';
}
return $oValue;
}

What is the world? That which you make it. What you make it, is it beautiful?
