The Earth’s weather is truly screwed up

Not only are we seeing the effects of mankind’s ignorance in the form of hurricanes but also in just plain weird weather. A few days ago it was snowing here. Then we had a cold snap that took the temperature down to 9 degrees fahrenheit. Now, its dark out and still holding in the [...]

Watching Star Wars, start to finish

I’ve been wanting to plan a day where I had a few friends over and watch Episode I through Episode VI of Star Wars all in one sitting. I may still do that, but I realize that will be easier said than done, so I started by watching Episode IV while I worked yesterday. [...]

I’m about half way done with Peter Jackson’s King Kong for the Xbox

No, not the Xbox 360, I won’t get one of those till Spring. I’m actually incredibly glad I didn’t get an Xbox 360 out-the-gate. Those of you who paid thousands of dollars on eBay for a machine that will probably freeze on you, I salute you Mr. I have to have everything first [...]

Random photo posting on Flickr

Here is something fun to do, which I just did. Resort your iPhoto (or digital photo software of choice), by something other than date. Perhaps simply reversing the order would be sufficient for you, for others you might have to play with the sorting a little to get what you want. Then, [...]

Never let your Wife complain about the cold ever again

Women seem to be more affected by the cold than Men. I’m sure this is merely a misconception and Women are simply willing to voice themselves more than Men are. Many Women exist, quite happily, within the Arctic Circle. These Women work, play, and live their lives in freezing temperatures. Yet, the Women [...]

Sometimes I get outta hand

I really did not need to eat all of this for lunch, but it was good!

My little slice of heaven

My little slice of heaven consists of a 17″ iMac G4 and a 12″ iBook that controls both. Gotta love Synergy.

NFL overtime rules suck

Update: Many of you are coming here because you are watching a football game right now and you too think that the NFL Overtime rules suck. Welcome to my site – I share your pain. The Steelers lost in overtime today. Chris mentioned that the NFL’s overtime rules suck, and I agree – when the [...]

I wonder if I can survive without my right eye?

This isn’t to say that I don’t enjoy my eyes, its just that lately my right one has been giving me some trouble.  One out of three blinks yields some strange feeling in my right eye-lid which feels like someone is flipping my eye-lid up.  There is no pain, so please keep your sympathy cards [...]

Steelers run the ball

Expect to hear that a lot this weekend as Tommy Maddox pretends to be an NFL quarterback for the Pittsburgh Steelers. Since the Steelers defense is doing pretty well, and their running game is decent, they should manage to pull away with a win. Sports Four has an entry up allowing you to weigh in [...]

Some of the best movies I’ve never seen

Chris and I are catching up on some classics. Being born in 1980 makes it pretty tough to have seen some of the classics. Just old enough to know about the movies, just young enough to have not been able to see them until later on in life. There are thousands of movies that [...]

Morning coffee

I look forward to waking up to morning coffee. Wake up nice and early (typically between 7 – 9am), put on a pot of coffee, open up NetNewsWire and catch up on what’s going on. On ocassion our crew will have a meeting in the morning to plan out the day. It [...]

I’m jonesing for LOST

I’ve never been so anxious to see a Television show each week as I am with LOST. I’d probably be the same way about Soprano’s, if I had HBO. Thanks to my friends over at CrapFilter I’m practically biting my remote control waiting for tonight’s episode.

Sixers currently holding first in their division

Just a quick note to say that the Philadelphia 76ers are first in their division with a record of 5-3.  I believe they’ve won their last 4 or 5 straight, keep it up guys. AI made Kobe look like he was standing still, and while I respect Kobe’s talent – I simply enjoy seeing him get [...]

Based on the success my cats have at stealing pens, I think they should consider a life of crime

Each and every morning, I wake up seeing my pens laying on the living room floor.  They were in my pen holder on my desk in the office, but there they are, on the ground in front of the TV. I’ve tried several unsuccesful techniques to stop them.  Putting almost hundreds of pencils in the pen [...]

Eliza went crazy with Photo Booth

Eliza saw Mike’s recent Photo Booth extravaganza photos and wanted to make some of her own, so she did.

I work for a Weblog Network

I never thought I’d say that. In second grade when the teacher came around to me and asked “What do you wanna be when you grow up?” – I can guarantee my answer was not “A CTO from a Weblog Network”. In fact, I can’t even tell you what my answer was when I was [...]

Its almost time for a haircut

I remember my Dad calling it “getting your ears lowered”, but no matter how you describe it – I need to get it done. My hair grows like wildfire. If I got my haircut as often as I “needed to” it’d be getting cut once every two weeks at the most. I’m not sure why [...]
