Camp Greyhound Summer 2006

For the last two weeks, Amy and I have been dog sitting two amazing greyhounds: Wish and Gopher. I thought I would share some cute/fun pictures of them, plus our dog Triscuit. Having three large dogs in the house has been hectic (all three taking a walk at the same time in an area with […]

Meebo me.

I have been using meebo for some time now on and off and a few days ago I added a “Meebo Me” widget to my resume sidebar to test out and I have to say…it is very cool. I am considering adding the widget to my home page as well as to my blog page, […]

Great Read/Podcast!

I took a week off after my trip back east to get caught up on some of my business needs (make new business cards, set up payroll, clean up my files, catch up with all my business expenses/bookeeping. While going through my usual RSS feeds today, I finally had time to listen to one of […]

1948 Miles Later…

Well, after driving just shy of 2,000 miles in about a week’s time, I am finally home and trying to get back into the swing of things. Amy and I went our east coast tour to visit family and friends and now are exhausted and sick of driving ;). It is good to be back […]

Zelazny=Lazybones?

Well…I decided to check spelling of one of my tasks while using Tasks Pro and when it got to my last name (Zelazny), it prompted me to change it/add it. The spell checker, like usual, gave me a suggestion/replacement for the unrecognized word (Zelazny) and I had to laugh. The suggested word to replace Zelazny […]

Choices

A few nights ago, while watching a show on the History Channel I heard the following quote: It is not the choice you want, but it’s the choice you have. As soon as I heard it I decided it was a quote worthy of writing down. The context for the quote on the show: black […]

McDonalds is Podcasting

Wow. While driving around today, I passed a McDonalds and saw on their sign that they now had “snack wraps“. I went home and after dinner, while playing some literati, decided to go to Mcdonalds’ web site and see if I could figure out what this new product was…and low and behold…I got a lot […]

On Taking a Day Off

A big thanks to Doug and his girlfriend for inviting me and Amy to Lake Carroll this past weekend. Even though it was extremely hot, we had a blast. I got up at 5am on Saturday to get ready for my 6am tee time…and by 7am the sweat was dripping down my face. (When is […]

Taking a Day Off!

Well, I am finally going to step away from my computer for a day this weekend to just relax, fish, play some golf with Doug, and enjoy the summer. Never fear, I will be back working on Sunday (some on my WP plugin). Until then…. [tags]golf, Doug Blatti[/tags]

Do Not Stop on the Tracks!

I have taken the Metra (locomotive commuter train) for over seven years now and until about 5 minutes ago, had never been on a train that has hit a person or a car. This morning we hit a car and because I sit in the front car (third seat from the front) when we hit […]

Random Points of Interest

I have been completely swamped with work for the last week, but I wanted to share some random points of interest that I have stumbled upon over the last few days. I sat down to relax after a long day of coding to watch a great show on the History Channel called: Hooked: Illegal Drugs […]
