Yesterday began my long journey from the most isolated mid-size city in America (Boise, ID) to our nation’s capitol. This is my first time on the Potomac.
Traveling from Boise to D.C. means first stopping in SLC, then in to Chicago to change planes to get to D.C. Kudos to Southwest Airlines, with whom LGM has […]

It’s amazing sometimes the lessons you learn in ways you’d never expect. I had that experience over the last couple of days while kicking around my neighborhood with my scary Pit Bull. You know Pit Bulls. These are the out-of-control dogs that that kill as easily as they pee. They maim for fun. Rape and […]

Dave I hope you don’t mind the props, but this is a story we have to tell.
So our inimitable business partner - attorney, and chef, Dave Haley - has just been hired as the Executive Chef at what will be one of the largest events centers in Idaho. After a legal career spanning over 20 […]

It seems like only yesterday - no, no, it doesn’t. It seems like I have been in graduate school FOREVER. I actually knocked out several units as a senior, and then started officially in the Fall of 2005. Then, that was interrupted by the founding of Pronetos (very cool), and divorce (also very cool only […]

Hey! Some good news came our way last night as we received word that we have been invited to Geroge Mason University, to present our plans for Pronetos, at a Bar Camp style conference at GMU’s Center for History and New Media. This should be fabulous! The crew there at GMU are among the most […]

Wow have we been busy. Been working madly on a demo of the Open Journal System so we can actually have a product to sell. Demo looks pretty good!
We’ve also got a couple of grants to work on to support these projects . . .
And we’ve got Spring Break coming up, Uncle Dave in […]

So what does LGM do? Well, that’s a good question. Here’s a small snapshot of the last few days.
First, our good friends over at Indian Creek Winery invited us over for a barrel tasting of a few of their upcoming releases. I am trying to recollect my mental tasting notes . . .
If I […]

The day finally arrived when Pronetos Co-Founder Shane Carlson raised his right hand, and joined the ranks of the Albion City Council. Congratulations, Shane. We had to remind him to get a shot of the ceremony so that his daughter Grace would someday believe that her dad sat on the Council. Thanks to Chip Thompson […]

Awesome! David Broderick has solved the 411 connect problem for me: use Citywit. He posted a comment to the blog on how to use his site to find business information - can’t wait to try it! I’ll just post the post so that nothing is lost in translation. Thanks, David!

Chris,
Re: 411 connect, next time you […]

No, we’re not talking about Mulligans or the Drift. We’re talking about the LGM test kitchens at the 307. So I’m making some homemade butternut squash soup, and I am pureeing the final batch when the glass separates from the little plastic ring at the base of the blender, sending orange goo everywhere. Good thing […]
