Yahrzeit Candle [When I wrote the original version of this post for Father’s Day 2010, I never planned to update and then reprise this post annually. But as each Father’s Day has approached, my sense of loss increases. I so wish my Dad were still here to share with me and my […] SAP Founders 1988 — Klaus Tschira On The Left [The first version of this post was published May 25th, 2013 during the run-up to SAPPHIRE NOW 2013 and very shortly after SAP announced Lars Dalgaard’s departure and Vishal Sikka’s increased responsibilities — and very important responsibilities they were. Now here we are, […] As some of you know from my tweets, I tap danced last night as part of a very special adaptation of a classic Fibber McGee and Molly radio show at our annual fundraiser, Radio Daze: OnStage With Florida Rep. It was quite a night, a successful and really fun evening, with many thanks to the […] [I posted my first such wish list 1/29/2013, and just writing it lifted my spirits. So, I thought to myself, why not do it again?] Carnac In Bloom If any of us really knew what was going to happen in 2014, wouldn’t we keep it to ourselves and invest accordingly?

I learned so much about business, absorbed it through my pores, as I worked at Bloom’s Camera (later, Bloom’s Photo Supply and then just […] Classic Windowsill Tzedakah Box It’s that time of year again when I reflect on how very fortunate I am to live in this amazing country and on what I can do to make it better. For all the problems we’ve got, and they are daunting, we are so very blessed to be here.

So there I was, in the basement (textbook section) of the UPenn campus book store, during my lunch break on […] Celebrating Our 2010 Anniversary Over Dinner In The Languedoc-Roussillon, France I launched my blog about 4 years ago, 11-8-2009.
