My Awakening

I am a father.  I have been a father for 4 days and 30 minutes.  It is already the most amazing thing that has ever happened to me.

Two things about this you’ll possibly notice right away:

I’m not overly forthcoming on details
There are no pictures

Let me cover these straightaway.  Our son is the most precious thing in [...]

ASUS + Lil Jon = Crunk Tech

“ASUS is collaborating with Lil Jon to develop a computer targeting urban youth.”

First off, I have huge issues with the phrase “targeting urban youth”.  It’s such a loaded word, “targeting”.  Let’s not go down that road.  That said, I found it an interesting concept and decided to look into it a little further.  What I discovered [...]

A Surprise in Every Box!

Friday

Super awesome.  Left work, met wife and friends at The Med for happy hour.  Podcamp Boulder planning session next.  It was excellent.  numerous people that I deeply respect and completely adore were in attendance, including Jeremy Tanner himself (who planned the whole thing).  I threw two ideas up on the board to consider for sessions:  Workflow [...]

Pitbulls 101

A funny thing about pitbulls: it isn’t a breed. Pitbull, in fact, is an umbrella under which reside a few breeds, including Staffordshire terriers. We were not aware of this fact.

I read the full write-up that the humane society has on Emily, and it is universally agreed upon that she is an amazingly sweet dog. Her [...]

Emily, an amazing staffordshire mix

We are going to the Longmont Humane Society tomorrow.

That is [...]

Hokusai, Phil, and the Virgin

Nicolas Sarkozy May Be Crazy, but I Respect That

…but I love the guy’s blunt honesty and direct follow-through.

The current French president is a private man and does not discuss personal matters with the press.  He is happy to discuss his opinions on politics, though.  He wants Americans to know “that they can count on us. But at the same time, we want to be [...]

Kurt Vonnegut

Kurt Vonnegut passed away yesterday from head injuries he sustained in a fall at his home. He is my favorite author and one of my heros.

He wrote for “In These [...]

I learned something interesting about NewsCorp

You may already know that Rupert Murdoch’s megacorporation, NewsCorp, owns such wonderfully pervasive media outlets as Fox (TV and Film), The New York Times, several UK newspapers, and related ventures. What was news to me is that NewsCorp also owns MySpace.com.

Bear with me, here. I don’t know much about MySpace at all. I’ve [...]

This calls for a phoenix analogy or something

Alright, the hard drive running the old site COMPLETELY died, and the guy who ran it didn’t have any good backups. So that’s that.

Now I’m setup for 2 years of hosting with DreamHost, and it’s a happy new day. The site is just barely coming up and running, but I’m planning to do it [...]
