At the end of 2011 my wife was participating in a women’s bible study at our church that centered on gratitude. As the women in our congregation talked about what they were discovering through this study I began to realize something: I sucked at thanking people. I’m not talking about being bad at saying the [...]
On a recent Saturday morning I watched one of my nephews play in a 4v4 indoor soccer tournament on a team he had assembled. Their first 20-minute game ended with them on the losing end of an 18-2 tally. I think. I wasn’t prepared to count that high at a soccer game. After the game [...]
When my wife, daughter, and I were on our recent cruise to Mexico we enjoyed a couple of excursions to beautiful resorts in Cabo San Lucas and Puerto Vallarta. We paid a fee and the resorts shuttled us from the pier to their location, allowed us use of their private beaches, amazing pool areas, and [...]
I’ve been back in the “real” world for less than a week and I am already unsure how I survived for a week without the internet. Here’s what I can piece together from fragments of offline analog memories: My wife, 5-year old daughter, and I recently took a 7-day cruise to Mexico and we made [...]

It was on one of these trips that [...]
A few weeks back we received a call late in the afternoon from an agency in Anchorage who needed us to produce a number of table displays for an Alaska Oil & Gas Association rally that was to be held in Fairbanks the next day. 10AM the next day. I knew we would have no [...]
We recently had the opportunity to print some really cool brochures for the Alaska Center for Climate Assessment & Policy (ACCAP). Their piece featured a gate fold, where the outer panels fold toward the center, so we were excited to tweak our folding equipment to accommodate such a unique layout. The design work was done [...]
Can we all just agree that this is going to happen? One day we’re going to wake up to a world flooded with the undead and all we can really do is try to be ready. Because of this I want to share some ways you can make sure your business data is safe and [...]
We work with machines all day. Machines help us to do our work more efficiently. Machines help us do things that we couldn’t do without them. But machines also cause us to pull our hair out.
