A narrated look at the place where I live, complete with background music. Nothing special or touristy; I wanted you to see the ordinary, everyday aspect of this small (but growing w-a-y too fast) Florida city that is consistently overshadowed by neighboring Sarasota.

Hey, ladies, stick out your can. Here comes the garbage man! In Bradenton, Florida, he's one of the lowest-paid and hardest-working city employees, and hardly anybody pays any attention to him or gives him props for doing good work.

The day Sun Microsystems announced that it was buying MySQL A.B. (for a billion dollars total, no less) MySQL was having a corporate meeting in Orlando, Florida, about two hours from my home. It was a "no press" event, but I've known some of these guys for many years and begged an invite. So here you go... what they had to say to http://linux.com -- unscripted & off-the-cuff

Another one of my "Bradenton Tour" videos, one I only had to walk around the corner to make, because Karen's private gallery (and famous jam-party location) is on 15th Ave. W near 11th St. W, and we live at the cornerof 16th Ave.W and 11th St. W. Karen is one of the reasons we moved to the Village of the Arts, truly a great neighbor.
