My how time flies...

It's the 18th? Of February? Already? Crap, and only ten days left this month! Funny how that work/sleep/work/sleep cycle goes.

My latest shiny object? Twitter. I'm fascinated thus far. Feeds my need for constant information. And so far there have been a couple very interesting finds.

First: LeVar Burton

I'm sure you all know him from at least one of his roles on TV or the movies. For me my first real experience was "Reading Rainbow" on PBS. I don't recall how we started watching it. It came on before the Star Trek Original series that our local station had bought rights to. How cool is it that years later Mr. Burton himself was part of the Star Trek Universe?

But at any rate, I found LeVar Burton was on Twitter via Wil Wheaton, whom I'll be honest and admit was one of my least favorite Star Trek characters, but I have read his blog for alearned more about the person away from the character.

This is what I've done today with Mr. Burton. He's only recently started a blog, which I highly recommend reading and following.

I've learned a lot about him today, and he has some very useful insights. Chief amongst those that I gleaned today:

"The message I took away was to not be too hard on myself. Sage advice indeed! As a general rule I am trying to be less judgmental of everyone in my life, including me."
