Postcards about Michael & Alex: A Good, Well-Rounded Kid

August 21 at 10:07 am - via Bookmarklet - Link

"Michael is a good big brother, and his leadership inspires Alex; I contend that Michael's love of reading has encouraged Alex to become the great reader he is, and I would also argue that Michael's innocence preserve Alex's. That may seem a little silly; the older child keeping the younger one more innocent, but Alex is more worldly and streetwise than big brother. One may worry that Alex could lose his individuality to Michael's lead, but I assure you Alex is his own man. Sometimes Alex guides Michael; it was his drive to play football that encouraged Michael to go it a shot. Also, Alex has his own interests as demonstrated by the past weeks of chess and cupcake camp. I am pleased with how his well rounded, eclectic tastes have mixed with his brother's stewardship; Alex Patton, a football playing, chess enthusiast, baker, bookworm who is worldly wise, but is wise enough to linger in the golden days of childhood seems like a good, well-rounded kid to me." - RAPatton via Bookmarklet

I like the composition of the photo in this one. Wish I could have made the prose tighter, but in the limited space of a postcard, sometimes that is hard. - RAPatton

"read enough of them and you can consider yourself a virtual grandparent." What about a virtual aunt? ;-) Rap, the image is lovely and so are your words. :) - Anna Haro

You can be an aunt if you want; grandparents and greatgrandparents are the audience of the physical postcards that get sent out in the mail -- I still have 2 years to backfill -- Ahhh! - RAPatton

Love this photo, and they sound like great kids. I love that Alex went to cupcake camp. - Ayşe E.

I really adore that photo. - Melissa

The way you write about your boys is beautiful. You can tell how much you love them. They sound amazing. - Abby Martin

They are good boys, each has several great qualities - RAPatton

I also like how the boys seem to have a geniune friendship betwixt them, beyond the brotherhood thing, yet have their own friends too. - Michael W. May

Yes, that is *very* special. Makes me wonder if it is time for me to try for another one so my daughter can experience something like that. - Abby Martin

They do have a great friendship in my mind, better than siblings I have ever known. If Alex were the older child, this wouldn't work. We had them 25 months apart and I would recommend that to anyone. - RAPatton

"How the Web Was Won Fifty years ago, in response to the surprise Soviet launch of Sputnik, the U.S. military set up the Advanced Research Projects Agency. It would become the cradle of connectivity, spawning the era of Google and YouTube, of Amazon and Facebook, of the Drudge Report and the Obama campaign. Each breakthrough—network protocols, hypertext, the World Wide Web, the browser—inspired another as narrow-tied engineers, long-haired hackers, and other visionaries built the foundations for a world-changing technology. Keenan Mayo and Peter Newcomb let the people who made it happen tell the story." - Louis Gray via Bookmarklet

"Working with AT&T would be like working with Cro-Magnon man. I asked them if they wanted to be early members so they could learn technology as we went along. They said no. I said, Well, why not? And they said, Because packet switching won’t work. They were adamant. As a result, AT&T missed out on the whole early networking experience." Who is the AT&T of today? - Mark Trapp

Nice history. Thanks Louis. - Mitchell Tsai

Mitchell, we have a Rochester room kicking around somewhere. Ben Golub is here. Niki Black, um... Jenny Cisney, Aprille... Also funny that you took the classical music route.
