My apologies for the even lighter-than-normal posting. Thing that allows me to pay for bills and satisfy my shoe and handbag habit has me working crazy hours (as in nights, weekends and 14-hour days in between). For the next 6...
It began with a focus on software development. Custom solutions. Third-party integration. Mainframe data pulls. Re-usable code, then re-usable tools. Version control. (Always version control.) And in the decade since we began, the internet—and its accompanying mobile devices—completely turned design...
Yesterday, my son celebrated his 12th birthday, a day more special than most birthdays in our family because it falls on his grandmother's birthday, too. Because he's my youngest and I'm holding on to his milestones with white-knuckled grip, OF...

There I was, plodding against the muck with my chin tucked against my chest, then I found myself suddenly and violently spun on the spot, fighting my umbrella like a martial artist....
As I watched this video of an Iowan Senator on the floor, I couldn't agree with his daughter more. I can't think of anyone I know under the age of 35 who is offended by gay marriage. Even my...
Immigration report (pdf) says a whole lot of things about undocumented immigrants and crime. For instance:
A 2007 study by University of California, Irvine, sociologist Rubén G. Rumbaut, found that for every ethnic group, without exception, incarceration rates among...
I’ve been listening to Elvis Presley non-stop lately. Not growing up listening to him I come to it with fresh ears— free from many stigmas. I now understand why this guy is worshiped so....
When pressed for time, fall back on the fine work of those around you. Here are the two big stories from last night’s meeting of the Chattanooga City Council:

Did you happen to DVR American Idol last night only to realize THE SHOW RAN LONG AND ADAM LAMBERT'S PERFORMANCE WAS CUT OFF?? Adam Lambert's amazing Tears for Fears "Mad World" performance?? I'm not even a fan of the song...
You may have noticed that we made some changes to our comment system today. The new system uses DISQUS: a 3rd party solution for tracking ongoing discussions across multiple platforms, websites, and social networks. As a Chattarati reader and commenter,...
Man I sure love this one
When I get off of work this afternoon I am on my way to Hilton Head. The wife has been there since Saturday with the girls and I have been completely lost without her.

During Paul Harvey’s lifetime, numerous sayings or writings were attributed to him and circulated under his name. Today we have the convenience of Snopes to help us sort out if they are correctly attributed, even now many people believe in...
Once again I stumble across the “professional” stone. This has got to be one of my biggest pet peeves, someone who claims to be a professional but clearly isn’t. It gives those that have put in the education, training and...
You might not think so, but this picture is fantastic! The reason I say so, is that it kind of culminates this semester, and 2nd college career in a visual way. If you’ll notice, this is from the “It’s a...
Well, I don’t know about you, but public speaking is something I could live without….I think. Recently I had to give a 5-6 minute talk about my work at UTC , and supposedly there were a lot of “big players”...
So last week, as I mentioned in the last post, was Senior Exhibition 1 at UTC Cress Gallery. It was spectacular, if I do say so myself. Lots and lots of happy and welcoming faces milling about the gallery, musing...
