Can you dance like Scrivs?
I've been asking myself that all day, then I dug up this video of me from a few weeks back. And then I realize, yes I'm as white as white can be….

I hate headaches
I try my very best to avoid headaches, but once and awhile they creep in on me. Since I do try to avoid headaches, when I get them they are usually pretty…
Going through a live design
We're up and running. There is a lot of work to be done here for sure, but that can all be done whilst you're enjoying what is already here. From now on…
Poker losses and winnings
Chris had a few friends over tonight, myself included, for some poker and darts. The first game of poker went "okay" since I came in second, losing to Ryan (Chris' brother) after…
As the weather breaks…
I can’t wait for Spring. As the weather breaks, I’m going to try to take advantage of it. Yesterday I enjoyed some time on the deck/porch, even though I could only stay…
Repetitive errors
Each time I shower (about once every two or three months), I forget to dry off my left shoulder until last. Its something I’m perfectly conscience of, yet it seems to happen…
Am I the smartest person I know?
I can not tell you how many times I’ve been asked this question. Sarcastically of course. But, I’d like to answer it seriously. No. Not even close. In fact, I generally take…
CocoaDevHouse Dallas
Blake says hello I was unable to attend CocoaDevHouse in Dallas in “body”, but I was able to get their via IRC and Skype. Wanted to thank all those in attendance for…
I’ve got one ball
Upon reading the title of this post, you’re probably escorting your children out of the room before continuing to read it. But I can assure you, the title is intentionally deceiving. For…
An audio interview with, me…
I hope someone finds this interview with me interesting. I had fun doing it. Thanks Tyme for including me on the BizBlog show.
Highway driving
Scenario: You’re driving down the highway, in the left-most lane of a four lane highway. You notice that your exit is approaching, and you need to get into the right-most lane to…
Paul’s team
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].
Dancing with Drew
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,…
Umm Moana?
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…
Small things change the overall experience
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…
One thousand per week
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…
Tic-Tac
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…
Jealousy
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…
Soy Gringo
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…
I love Paul Scrivens
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…
Moana will definitely win the Bachelor
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…
New TUG stuff
A new member, and a new homepage.
I lost some Flickr views
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…
Hobby projects
I always like to have at least one or two hobby projects going. All work and no play makes Colin a dull boy you know. Sometimes I’m ready to start up brand…
The RSS Advisory Board
I wish I was on The RSS Advisory Board. I think I could contribute a great-deal to that effort. *hangs head*
Things I’d love to do, but will never be good at
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…
Grizzly Man
Grizzly Man has been talked about a lot on the Internets recently (partially due to the fact that it was on TV for all to watch). My opinion, to be as straight-forward…
Time to see some talent
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.
Give, give, and give some more
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…
Clickity clank, Clickity clank
I posted this photo on Flickr and some people, including some of the people that commented, were surprised what I develop on. Overall, I really can't complain. My iBook runs fairly well,…
