I am an author. Essayist, technology consultant. Husband, and father. Living in Saint Paul, MN. I create and curate a mixture of media, on a variety of topics that fascinate me, and deliver it in ways that are topical and rational. It should also be noted that I am a big fan and shameless abuser of the ellipsis, parenthetic asides, and the long (yet, not run-on) sentence. My posting schedule (or lack thereof). I write a few other places too. I am known as the creator of Minimal Mac. A weblog focussed on ...

Christian Ross – Purveyor of Awesome | giveaway
http://christianross.net/category/giveaway
The US Thanksgiving holiday has passed which means it’s time for an updated Christmas playlist. As per the norm, it extends a little further than the standard Andy Williams and Bing Crosby (though those are classics and good in their own right) which you can find on most local, AM/FM Christmas stations. New to this game and want to catch up? For past compilations. My apologies for the creepy Santa pictures, I’m not really sure how it all got started. Click the image above or link below to download. As mu...

Christian Ross – Purveyor of Awesome | Cathartic Writing
http://christianross.net/cathartic-writing
I’m a bit stressed. It’s been a busy 2015 and the last few weeks have been particularly rough. I’ve found in the past that writing can be a bit cathartic for me and of course there’s only so much space for it on my social network of choice. Chris. Is blogging again so I figure I might as well. The following is probably going to be in a depressing tone, feel free move along if you don’t want to be brought down. Maybe they just keep their mess together a bit better. A view from the other side. It isn’...

Christian Ross – Purveyor of Awesome | US States – HTML Select/Options list
http://christianross.net/us-states-html-selectoptions-list
US States – HTML Select/Options list. In HTML is the code used to create a simple drop-down list on the web. In its simplest form, its usage is for organizing a long list of options and allowing a user to click one item from the list. One of the most common usages of it can be found as you fill out a web form and have the ability to select your state from one. Posting mostly for my future self but in case you need a quick copy/paste down the road I’ve gone through and done up three versions:. Apr 29, 2011.

I’ve also had the ability to connect with a bunch of boys who at 4-8 years old may or may not be sure about themselves, their abilities, their desire for playing a team sport, or even have much confidence in general. We’ve won titles and had seasons where we came in somewhere close to last place and yet every season we walk off with our heads held high and smiles on our faces. Jun 09, 2015. I’ve only checked out one of these Pleasureable Troublemakers. In short, if you grab your car key it spits your bik...

Christian Ross – Purveyor of Awesome | An open letter to my son
http://christianross.net/an-open-letter-to-my-son
An open letter to my son. I yelled at you today and of course, I shouldn’t have. You didn’t deserve it. 6-year-olds surely don’t. I’ll admit, I was frustrated with you but you were only the straw; I’m not exactly sure where the build up began but sadly the pressure released on you. Without turning this on you, here’s a few of areas that I’d love to get better about teaching you but for you to learn them, I know I have to model them. Help me and join me in working each day to become less self-centered....
