Ok, many of you may be wondering what is up with the newly changed "pink" theme to my blog. Well about this time last year, I decided to take up a cause and I staged a blog boycott. Many of the blogosphere’s most famous people and some (then) new friends came to my rescue and showed great support for the cause. They are wonderful folks and all deserve tremendous credit for the social conscience. Please give all of their blogs a read at least once – you’ll be glad that you did.

The cause from last year and again this year should be a familiar one because October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. And this year it is even a more dear cause. My wife’s sister was just diagnosed with breast cancer and has surgery scheduled for this week. I tell you this not for sympathy, but as a reminder of how many lives this disease touches. Please remember, every woman who gets breast cancer is someone’s mom, sister, or daughter.
This October, please make a donation to the cause and do something, anything that will help raise awareness. Thank you. -Carl
