Triscuit Update

Ah Triscuit. She is such a champ. She now officially loves using a pillow (like in the picture from yesterday’s post), and is not limping as bad as Sunday. Of course, she walks perfect when other dogs are around, but getting up out of bed is still a little hard. She does not too much […]

Triscuit

Well, after deciding we needed to treat Triscuit to a nice fun day, we packed up the car and took her to a local dog training club that was having a “Save the miniature pinchers” fundraiser. For a small fee, you could have your dog partake in lure coursing. Since Triscuit is a retired racer […]

Apple Serenity Now!

crazy safari.

Not sure if anyone else has accidentally done what I just did, but I got a kick out of it and thought I would share. I looking at a web site in Safari and decided I wanted to grab the URL and drag it onto my desktop for later use. Instead, I heard the “poof” […]

Serenity Now!

a good compromise.

I bought Curb Your Enthusiasm Season 4 today…and I wanted to share one of my favorite quotes from the season with everyone. “A good compromise is when both parties are dissatisfied.”

larry david moment: the metra station friendly stranger.

Yeah. I am a Seinfeld fan. I often give the name Elaine Benes when making reservations, and my vocabulary is full of words/statements that are from Seinfeld and Curb your Enthusiasm. I could have written an episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm with my thought process/actions yesterday…so I thought I would share. Some think it is […]

That Time of Year

Well, I have one last weekend before the madness begins. The Penn State fight song and other Blue Band classics will be heard blasting from my office and iPod. My priorities shift…golf on Saturdays will take a back seat to college football. I, of course, love Penn State football and Joe Paterno, but living where […]

all work, no play!

It is coming up on a month since I last golfed…but thankfully that is about to end. The last few weekends I have been putting in 8 hours or more (hours seem like minutes) of work per day between my work with Solaris, Apache, XOOPS, and organizing my workspace. Although I have accomplished a lot, […]

Serenity Now!

email forwards.

You know the situation. You have friends that think you want to read their stupid forwards. How many times have I recieved an email from someone that said “just try it” or “what do you have to lose?” or “this really works!!!”. Sure. Thanks for just wasting my time deleting your message. Then, without doubt, […]

Awesome Stuff

Just when I thought I was going to be super cool by creating a vodcast, I find out that there is something cooler out there. Is this the future of TV? A big cheers to me for finally working out the max-width error that was making all my PC IE friends (ok probably about 2 […]

Music

New Favorite DJ: Project C

I have a ton of CDs, mp3, etc on my computer, but these days my favorite music to listen is located on an internet radio station: Vocal Trance from DI.FM. I have a few favorite radio stations bookmarked in iTunes, but nothing has been more satisfying than this Vocal Trance station for the last few […]

Serenity Now!

plugged in again.

After being just shy of putting 2000 miles for the week the Volvo, me, and A are ok. The trip summed up: Thirteen hours to first destination. Had a new take on evolution and conservation. Saw Emily’s baby, spent some time with A’s family. Went to a baptismal. Got back in the car for a […]
