  On spring break with my 15 year old, I tried to race one of her friends on the slalom course and it ended predictably - My daughter's friend won and I fell and fractured my leg - at least I didn't tear my ACL. Instead, I spent the rest of my spring break recuperating on the sofa in the condo while my daughter and her friend skied all over Vail mountain. I was pretty happy with my computer and time to work without interruptions and grateful for the really superior medical treatment that I received from the Vail doctors. Not surprisingly, they know knee injuries inside and out!Then I came home and needed to see a doctor here in DC.  The Vail doctors referred me to a doctor who had just moved to DC from Vail.  I had complete confidence in this newly relocated doctor since he is trained b... 04/16/2009

After months of secrecy (that really wasn't a secret), the new Apple store has opened on Bethesda Ave in Bethesda. The new space is directly across from the old Apple store, but easily three times as big as the old location.  I ducked in to the new location today to retrieve my 15 year old daughter who was hungrily eyeing a new computer - funny how her "old" IBM is suddenly unsalvageable! The store is beautiful, even on a grey rainy day, but I was struck by how empty it seemed.  There probably were just as many people in the new store as there had been on similar days in the space across the street, but the new space is so big that people seemed lost in it.  The old space which almost crushed everyone into one another created a visual energy level that said to passersby that something e... 04/15/2009
