We finally got our pumpkins carved last night. The kids sketched out their designs and then drew them on the pumpkins for my wife and I to carve (they're a little too young yet to do it themselves, but are old enough to enjoy seeing their designs finished.)

As I'm sure you've heard by now, Apple co-founder Steve Jobs passed away yesterday.

It's past midnight, so I'll keep this brief. After previously consolidating most of my blogs into one (Alpha Gecko), I've decided to bring the internet marketing related portions back here. The reasons for that will become more obvious after I find time to develop a few concepts I have for making the White Hat Crew...
