Entertainment for the Traveling Consultant (UltraViolet Review)
Like many of us, I have a collection of favorite movies. These include Ghostbusters, Stripes, Serenity, and dozens more.

What Am I Thankful For
Earlier this week, I suggested that we share a message of thanks on our blogs. Since I suggested we put these posts together, I should throw my post in the ring.
