I Punched Scott Strange

June 27, 2012 By Scott K. Johnson 4 Comments

Did I ever tell you guys about the time I punched Scott Strange? It was more of a sharp elbow jab, and it hit him just below the shoulder.  He didn't see it coming, and it surprised the heck out of him. A couple of years ago, he and I were on the same connecting flight from Washington D.C. to Chicago, coming home from the JDRF Government Day.  Like many DOC related trips, … [Read more...] about I Punched Scott Strange

JDRF Government Day Whirlwind

March 23, 2011 By Scott K. Johnson 7 Comments

The first session I went to was called "Government Relations 101". Sounded perfect to me - as I had no clue what I was getting into. Kim and I sat next to each other and listened to a great, high level, presentation about the JDRF and Government Relations. At some point during the talk, Gary Hall Jr. was mentioned.  Yeah, 10 time Olympic Medalist Gary Hall Jr.! Everyone … [Read more...] about JDRF Government Day Whirlwind

After a short conference call this morning and a quick session of lunchtime basketball, I'm driving down to Des Moines, IA to attend the Taking Control of Your Diabetes (TCOYD) conference tomorrow. The TCOYD conferences do the best job of providing a lot of valuable information to people living with both type 1 and type 2 diabetes.  Many conferences try to serve the needs of … [Read more...] about TCOYD – Taking Control of Your Diabetes, in Des Moines, Iowa

Magical Meet Ups

May 7, 2010 By Scott K. Johnson 11 Comments

It has been about three days since I dropped George off at the airport.  I have been thinking about how to write about it ever since.  You know what?  There is no way I can do the visit justice.  It is literally impossible to describe how great it was. George and I have a weird/special connection that goes beyond blogging and diabetes.  It is more like twin brothers … [Read more...] about Magical Meet Ups
