Is your neighborhood ready to build a “STOOL?”

Hammerhead slept in until 6:15, this morning, but leaped out of bed with an idea for a symbol to represent PetalumaNET (2.0), so he woke up Eagle-Eyes and asked, "What do you think about this? It's a STOOL. Yup, another acronym has been created and Eagle-Eyes, thought it would get [...]

PetalumaNET (2.0) is moving off the drawing board

Do you recall my earlier blogs when I was struggling with changing the focus and direction of the original PetalumaNet focus in 1995-96? More than once, I indicated that - you cannot change the wind, but you can change the sails. As of October 1, Eagle-Eyes and Hammerhead will continue [...]

Are you a “resident” or a “citizen?”

  Many readers of the Press Democrat know by now that Chris Coursey's last column appeared in today's edition (B3). Next Monday, he'll start a new job with SMART. (Don't you love acronyms? SMART = Sonoma Marin Area Rail Transit.)  That lazy trio (Me, Myself &I) are still on their [...]

Time out for building a “sense of community”

I know that I should be cleaning out the garage tonight, rather than posting a blog; but Eagle-Eyes and Hammerhead thought the three community events that Me, Myself & I participated in during the past 24-hours were worthy of calling to the attention of Petaluma360 viewers because they "hit the [...]

It was bound to happen, sooner or later

  It's 4 a.m. and Eagle-Eyes is saying, "Wake Up! Wake up! You have to see this headline. 'Me' nudges 'I' who in turn pokes 'Myself' and all three of us rise and waddle downstairs in our bunny rabbit slippers to glance at an article titled, "The real Fake Steve [...]

“Local blogs are a key to future of politics”

  Evidently Hammerhead wants to get back into blogging, too. Although Eagle-Eyes credited him with yesterday's blog-quote, he nudged "Me, Myself, & I" this a.m. and held the above headline from the S.F. Chronicle (8-4-07) in his face and asked, "Doesn't this hit the nail on the head? Let's share [...]

Adjusting our sails for a new direction

  A quote spotted on the Aqus website, caught Eagle-Eyes' attention and he promptly passed it on to "Hammerhead" who really got excited. He remembered that "Me, Myself, & I" studied John Dewey's philosophy over 50 years ago and is still a strong believer in its application to current societal [...]

PetalumaNet is Growing Up!

In 1995, the information and communication technology (ICT) community networking group of volunteers known as PetalumaNet was officially "incubated" and "hatched." On September 1, 2007, it will celebrate its 12th Anniversary and enter its 13th year of activity. It is growing up, and on its way to becoming a teen-ager. [...]

When you point your finger –

As I read various newspapers this past week, I was quite conscious of the negatively worded articles that described how different groups or individuals blamed other people or organizations over this issue or that viewpoint. It was a "downer," and I couldn't help but recall the old saying - When [...]
