Five daily blogs about life's 5 big choices on five interconnected sites.

PS. Yesterday an idea popped into my head while walking to dinner in Montgomery, AL…I’m the Grateful Dead of blogging….
Last August, I spent a week in Finland and never turned the TV on until 2:00AM, an hour before I left. It’s like every time I travel. I just never watch TV.
But I sure do put some milage on the Internet. And that’s how I found this surprisingly insightful midlife broadcast.
