I’ll start by making an educated guess that of the vast majority (read all 7 of you) of visitors/readers of my little slice of the Internet know very little about RSS. For that I apologize, and one day soon I will either write/draw up a little something for you to catch you up or swing…
Have I ever mentioned I love technology? Mel and I are sitting here from the Dr. office lobby and just passed the 1 hour and 15 minute mark. Two blood drawings down and two to go, and one or two more shakes. Meanwhile, I’ve answered all of the morning emails, checked the news, updated a…
…and I’ll pretty much be bringing home a Tony.
This has potential to be good: Ben Harper – In the Colors – from ‘Lifeline‘ due out Aug 28th
I came across this map today from the 2000 census stats, it caught my interest for a minute or two. I’ve lived in all four of the different ranges at some point or my life or another. Some of the other things that I noticed include: The large white areas in Oregon, Maine, Northern Michigan,…
I guess it depends on where you live. Also today I saw the word ‘Lead.’ Why do/did we make it so hard on ourselves by a. giving multiple meanings or pronunciations to one word spelled one way (Lead, follow or get out the way; Don’t eat that paint, its Lead-based) b. make so may words…
After far too long of being disconnected from the world, we now have Internet and Satellite back. We still have a few things to mend but for the most part life is getting back to normal after our house was struck by lightning last Thursday. Things damaged or destroyed by the insurance labeled ‘act of…
Took a while, but it is finished. View more pictures, including the before and in progress shots. Here or here.
Now if only Kyle and I would have thought of this when we had the bus. Knowing how unstable my bus was, I am a little concerned about the mental stability of these guys. Genius. The horn is the icing on the cake.
These guys turn out some pretty cool furniture. Not sure they make anything I need, but looks like they make some pretty cool stuff for kids’ rooms. Straight Line Designs A couple of my favorites:
Hour one: Showered, put in contacts, got ready in darkness. Clouds aren’t helping either. Mel is putting on make-up from the floor of the living room by the back door. Only option to use hair dryer or curling iron would be to sit in the truck. Decision: undecided edit: Hours two through five: Gone. Hair…

With the advantages of laptops, free WiFi, and an uncanny ability to not pay much attention when I read my flight schedule ahead of time, I have a few extra minutes to kill while enjoying the friendly confines of the Harlingen International Airport. Aeropuerto internacional de Harlingen, if you are a local. Not many complaints…
On the flight down to my island office, I finished a book that my cousin gave me when I was in CO. Knowing the source of the gift, I was a little leery about what it was or what it had to say. Actually turned out to be pretty good. May be the first book…
Just a quick video to show everyone my office this week. I cut the sound cause it didn’t come out very well. The waves are great, the seagulls are hovering, the spanish is fluent. In the words
When I hoped for something to get the news outlets to forget about Don Imus and Anna Nicole, it wasn’t this
for my lack of attention to this thing, more so probably just a combination of any of the following: – no motivation – writer’s block – laziness – way too busy to allot any timebut maybe I’ll make a feeble attempt at writing more often. random stuff: setting – temperature: approx 211F; time: a little…
