The Rundown
Filed in blog, Mon, 31 Oct 2005, 11:10 pmYeah, I’ve been busy. Work has been pretty hectic and the home front has been rather full, too. Since Lisa’s minivan continues to have problems (more on that later), I’m still waking up earlier than usual even on days I’m off. That’s left me with little sleep and barely any time just to relax. And [...]
Here’s one for the ACLU
Filed in blog, Tue, 25 Oct 2005, 9:44 amI just got this e-mail from my sister Christine:
A friend just informed me about this and I thought I should pass it along. Now you can see anyone’s driver’s license on the internet, including your own! I just searched for mine and there it was. . .
picture and all!!
I removed mine. I suggest you do [...]
OpenOffice.org 2.0
Filed in blog, Thu, 20 Oct 2005, 12:39 pmI’m sure I’m not the first to break the news (ah, yes, already Slashdorked), but that doesn’t take away from my excitement that OpenOffice.org 2.0 has been officially released today. Sure, it’s a tad lame that this excites me, but I think it’s a cool product. I use it at home, and if not for [...]
Franz Freakin’ Ferdinand
Filed in blog, Tue, 18 Oct 2005, 11:41 amWhat a performance! Franz Ferdinand has been my favorite band of this whole Post Punk revival thing ever since my friend Heather first spun them for me way back whenever. As soon as I found the CD in a store it entered heavy rotation in my car - the kind where I don’t even bother [...]
Noises off
Filed in blog, Sat, 15 Oct 2005, 1:13 pmThis was supposed to be my day to sleep in. Lisa picked up her minivan from the shop on Thursday, which meant she could drive herself to work for the first time today. Unlike the last three weekends, I didn’t have to get up by 8 AM, drive her to the school, and then head [...]

This story is actually a week old. It kind of makes me ashamed of my blogging that it takes me a week to tell the tale of the little froggie.
Late one night last week, Lisa and I did some shopping. During [...]
Worst. Weekend. Ever.
Filed in blog, Mon, 10 Oct 2005, 8:18 pmOkay, not literally. It’s not like anyone died or anything (knock on wood). And considering the nonstop disasters encircling the globe these days, my crappy three-day weekend really doesn’t rate. Nevertheless, I feel like I’ll be stuck in one wicked funk for a couple weeks as a deal with a whole lotta crap at work [...]
Sensory overload
Filed in blog, Tue, 4 Oct 2005, 5:41 pmMy mind is still somewhat reeling from the past two days. Sunday I screamed my head off in Hoboken along with my fellow Eagles brethren watching one of the most amazing comebacks. Down by scores of 17-0 and 24-6, our boys fought back unmercifully and dominated the second half enroute to a 37-31 victory. I [...]
