Month: February 2006

I’m the white guy from Pennsylvania and I refuse to comment about “the package”. I’m proud to be on such a Mutley Crüe [sic].

Eliza and I agreed, if Jerry Rice won “Dancing with the Stars” we would have freaked. Not that I don’t give “mad props” to Jerry for improving as much as he did, but in the end the competition was not based purely on skill nor improvement, but the number of fans you were able to

Dude, Moana should have definitely won. I mean, definitely should have. Sara, or Sarah (the woman he picked) is head over heels for the Doctor from Nashville, in comparison to Moana having a true connection that goes much deeper than the “barbie & ken” experience. It’s just bullcrap, because Travis wasn’t up to the challenge

I’m writing this post, while sitting at my dining room (I use this term loosely) table, using Flock.  No, not the built in blogging capabilities (they suck), but still using Flock for the second full day in a row.  I’m also using my new bluetooth mouse. Though these two things do not change what I’m

The way I figure it, I’m deleting about 1,000 emails per week. This includes approved blog comments, forum notifications, spam, and other stuff I no longer need. How many emails are you deleting per week?

Usually when people offer you a Tic-Tac, its because your breath needs some attention. Abizer, of Stompy.org, offered to send me a bluetooth Apple mouse – which I’ve named Tic-Tac – without ever smelling my breath. Thanks Abizer, this baby is going to get put to some very good use.

I’m enjoying the weekend, but thought I’d hop on for a minute or two, and noticed something that made me feel a twinge of jealousy. I’m generally not a jealous person. For instance, if you roll by me in a brand new Jaguar and think I’ll turn green, you’re probably wrong. I’ll shake your hand

I’m going to learn Spanish. I fully realize that I’m probably not worthy, yet, to start writing blog posts in Spanish (which I plan on doing in the future), since (spanish slang to follow:) soy gringo. Loosely translated, it means I’m a dirty American. I love this language already! I can’t wait to learn more,

Not in that Brokeback Mountain kinda way (not that there’s anything wrong with that), but in the way that you would if someone was willing to stand behind those that’d be willing to stand behind him. Today was a rough day. But, when the smoke clears, the only one that will be standing there with

I called it before, and having not been able to watch Monday’s episode till tonight, I wasn’t sure if my prediction would hold water. Yet, after watching the latest episode of The Bachelor, I can say with relative confidence that Moana will win the Bachelor.

I’ve had a ton of photos (and screenshots) on Flickr that have gone well over 1000 views. A few of my screenshots are in the 5,000 range. Recently, however, I had a photo that almost surpassed 1000 views in record time, and I was going to mention that fact – except that I lost some

I wish I was on The RSS Advisory Board. I think I could contribute a great-deal to that effort. *hangs head*

I’d love to play piano, but no matter how hard I try – I suck. I simply can’t get it. Perhaps its my inability to "hear" music the way musicians do, or whatever, but its something I desire to do and just can’t. I’m considering taking real lessons, and if I do – and they

Grizzly Man has been talked about a lot [on the Internets recently](http://technorati.com/search/Grizzly Man) (partially due to the fact that it was on TV for all to watch). My opinion, to be as straight-forward and honest as I know how, is that Timothy Treadwell did everything wrong. As altruistic as he was in the beginning, his

I was glad that last night’s American Idol was the last episode of the horrible funny contestants. I was getting sick of it. Now I’m ready to see some fresh talent.

Helping friends move is something that comes in the “I’ll be your friend” contract, right? I’ve always had more than enough assistance from friends when I’ve moved. So its only fair that I return the favor. However, I think there is something more to helping out your friends then “returning favors”. Many people, including myself,

“Your invite from XXXX to be linked on LinkedIn will expire in XXXX days”. Who cares? Update: Just FYI I’ve been invited to link up with hundreds of people, and I’ve seen very little value in actually following through with it. Hence this reaction. I think I’ll delete my account soon, if for no other

Today the Steelers take on the Seahawks for the title of World Champion. As much as I want the Steelers to win, I’m hoping for an exciting game thats fun to watch. Oh, and a couple of great commercials couldn’t hurt. I wonder how many Apple ads we’ll see?

For some reason, I’m not excited about it being Friday today. Usually I’m at least happy that the week is over and that the weekend is beginning, but this week not so much. The reason this strikes me as weird, is because this Sunday is Super Bowl Sunday (do I have to pay someone for

Eliza and I, in addition to watching The Bachelor, watch American Idol. As I’ve said elsewhere, I like to watch the beginning (aka the funny part of the season), and then watch the end where they’ve already drilled down to the last four wannabes. This year, at least in my opinion, it seems as though
