Marc Whitman's Blog

So, because I’ve been on vacation I feel like I have the time to write and I want to challenge myself to write more. I thought I would challenge myself to write one blog post a week. I realize when I get back to work that I will wonder what I was thinking, but it may be worth a shot.

Any suggestions on what to write about? A potpourri of ideas logged throughout the week? A weekly focus, or challenge, that could be determined ahead of time? Maybe a four week rotation of themes that I cycle through each month. Should I share any music compositions that I work on (warning: they are never very complete because I don’t ever take the time to flesh out the ideas)?

If any readers are still out there, let me know, I’d appreciate your feedback.

I’m not sure I understand the purpose of the fine. The article says they broke league rules, so they deserved the fine, but is a useful rule? I don’t know, and I’m not an NBA fan, so I don’t really care that much, but the thought of being fined for resting players is odd to me. Maybe the league should play fewer games. In the end it makes me think about how we submit to authority and to what authority we are submitting. This could be the government telling you that you can’t sell large sodas to customers. Oh wait…they already do.
