We made it!

Spring has finally arrived in Ann Arbor and another term has come to an end. That means we have made it through our first year in Ann Arbor! We are 1/3 through our time in Ann Arbor, Courtney is 1/5 of the way through her program, Arthur is off to the B school next year, we got a cat (and kept her more than three months), and enjoyed our first year here. There were some ups and downs, many challenges, lots of learning, and lots of fun. We took advantage of all that Ann Arbor had to offer and now it is time to head East for the summer.

Globalization

No matter what field you are in these days the buzz word is globalization. It is an elusive word that no one can pin down or be sure what it really means. People frequently use it as a negative term. But today I am going to show a positive side of it. I stumbled on this and I thought I would share. Enjoy!

Congrats to the Grad!

A big shout out to my brother Mark, who just graduated from business school. Not only that, he was inducted into the Beta Gamma Sigma society (b school's version of phi betta kappa, you can read about it here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beta_Gamma_Sigma).

Here's a quick video of him being "knighted" (the official term?) and given a stole (the ribbon that gets worn over the graduation gown). Now he's off to do what all of us truly wish that we could do: travel! Nice job big bro!
