Why is everything about blame? Seriously. Fix the fucking problem, and then use an appropriate amount of energy to figure out the cause (if possible), then mitigate or remove it, and move the fuck on. it really is pretty fucking simple.

Who was your most influential teacher? Why?
I love this question, and as usual, i have more than one answer!
Academically speaking? My physics professor in college – Dr. C. He inspired me to learn about string theory and particle physics, which has since turned into a lifelong thing.
Professionally speaking? My mentor, who I’ve written about before. I have learned so many things from him and because of him and have grown immensely as a result.
Personally speaking? My father. I won’t even start about how that man influenced my outlook, my work ethic, my behavior towards others, and my curiosity about the world. I’d be writing for days.
Generally speaking? Life – and living it. the good, the bad, the unremarkable – it all has the potential to teach us something. And I am starting to realize that may be the goal here. To learn as much as possible in the incredibly short time that we are here.

I have been asked any number of times if there is something i collect. My answers are usually, “not really” or “travel cups”. i don’t know that i have ever answered truthfully. But only because i didn’t realize it myself….
Granted, the goal is to fill them, but the fact remains:
I collect notebooks.
I have big ones, medium ones, small ones. Hard cover, soft cover, sans cover. i have a hand bound leather notebook (journal).
I have had favorite notebooks, i have had notebooks that i wanted to love, but couldn’t stand using….
This collection will never go for millions at a “notebook collector’s auction”, but it, and the pieces of me that decorate the pages, are priceless.
