Hey everybody, Taking a break from blogging about our out-of-control fear mongering world to say that my book about this concept is now available in Colorado’s Tattered Cover. It’s on the shelf in the Fiction section at all three branches. Pick up a copy for a mere $9.95. For you readers (if any of you … Continue reading »
Thanks again, Gandhi.
Saw this bit of awesomeness while waiting in line to check out somewhere last week. People like Gandhi were proof that giant far away elements of the Universe (think dark matter and dark energy—entities that we Earthlings can’t define yet) have connections to our planet. I’m looking forward to having a great week. I … Continue reading »

Senator Pat Toomey: it’s cool. Really, it’s cool.
Senator Toomey of Pennsylvania, telling it like it is. When I write on here about how we need to befriend and support the cool Republicans (“cool” as in different from the xenophobic oligarchal overprivileged white guys), I’m talking about people like Pat Toomey. In their quest to defeat the bill that would require background checks … Continue reading »
That weirdness in the air? It’s called evolution.
I wanted to write about last week. One idea was about the NRA, focus on how they used fear to control our Senate. (Senator Ayotte? Really? I seriously thought you were at least somewhat cool.) Relate this piece to my book. But I decided against it. Then there was Boston. Through the world of social … Continue reading »
Nacchio: should’ve been a Wall Streeter.
Joe Nacchio is a bad guy. Just ask many former Qwest employees. The reason I’m posting this article is that I am thinking of the sheer amount of time and money and investigative energy and courtroom brain damage it took to convict Nacchio to just 70 months in prison in a minimum security facility. But why … Continue reading »
Groupon and Living Social: shiny techy coupons.
I don’t talk about my professional world much up here. Don’t really care to. Blogging about the world through the lens I found while writing Fearkiller interests me much more. These one-of-a-kind times we’re in right now, they are fascinating the hell out of me. But, I found a way to right about my business … Continue reading »

Not-so-crazy-Republican sighting.
I’ve decided, maybe one of my focuses for chrismaley.com should be to post stories about the not-so-crazy Republicans. They are there. (I can only imagine the freakout by moderates last year when Todd Akin ran his idiot-mouth about “the body has ways of shutting that thing down.”) And actually I admire the moderate Republicans like … Continue reading »
Feel Free to Think Freely!!!
Am I thinking freely, even feeling free to go about doing that? Not really, I just had a flashback to a place from years ago. Well, not really a place, a conference room in an old client’s building. The Innovation Room. It was your garden-variety conference room, but since they needed a room to innovate, … Continue reading »
80% of Americans, 7% of wealth
Check out this video, Wealth Inequality in America. This is a great six and a half minutes, well “great” maybe isn’t the word. The last part of this, which shows how the graph can’t even accommodate the revised numbers from the extremes, hoo boy. If The Recession® does indeed happen, those folks on the right … Continue reading »
