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…
This week, has been a fairly good week.
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,…
LinkedOut
“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…
Game day
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….
Indifferent about it being Friday
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…
Paula Abdul is putting on a show, and some of the better Idol-wannabes might be suffering for it
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 Bachelor
If there is any amount of justice in this world, Moana will win the Bachelor. I have many reasons for thinking this way, and I’ll keep them between Eliza and I. But…
FlickIt 2.1
If you use Dashboard, you should be using FlickIt.
I think I may have just injured myself
The only details I will make public is that I think I ate way too many peanuts this weekend.
