Introducing the most useless webpage on the entire internet: BoomerCam, 24/7 live streaming video of my Rat Terrier, Boomer. After getting broadband internet access last month I decided to dust off a cheap, $10, Windows 95 era webcam that was just sitting around in a box of old computer equipment. After downloading a free webcam [...]
I just came back from seeing The Simpsons Movie with Maegan. It was eeexcelent. I knew going in that I would love the movie but I also knew that I would still be disappointed from unrealistically high expectations. The biggest problems weren’t with the movie at all, but that I had already seen so much [...]
I played in another amateur disc golf tournament earlier tonight. On the 8th hole I lost my preferred putter, a red 172g Aviar. You rarely ever see anybody lose a putter but somehow I managed to either drop it or just stupidly leave it in the basket. At the end of the round I shot [...]
Patty and the girls went to the coast this past weekend but I didn’t go with them. I have plenty of vacation days remaining but I’m not allowed to use any of them during sweeps, and it would be pointless to spend 4 ½ hours driving to the coast on Saturday, only to have to [...]
Have you seen the episode of The Simpsons episode with Simon Cowell? It starts off with Homer and Bart leaving the water running in the upstairs shower only to later have the entire tub crash down through the living room ceiling? Well that’s close to what happened late Friday night / early Saturday morning. Late [...]
Last week I showed Patty how easy it was to upload video to Google using the Gmail account she already had. Since I showed her, she’s been shooting video uploading it every single day. She wants to show Darah to her father in Afghanistan and her younger sister in Hawaii. As an example, here’s today’s [...]
As part of a promotional campaign for the upcoming Simpson’s Movie, several 7-Eleven stores around the country have been transformed into Kwik-E-Marts. The stores have even been restocked with brand name products from the show, including Buzz Cola, Krusty-O’s Cereal, and Squishee drinks. But the Simpson’s branding doesn’t stop there as they’ve included details such [...]
In March I offered draft analysis for two fantasy baseball leagues I’m in. We’re now at the MLB All-Star break so I went back and took another look at my previous analysis. I had some very off-target player predictions but the most surprising thing is how backwards my initial confidence in each roster was. In [...]
I don’t normally point out every time I upload new photos but we took lots of new photos this weekend during Amy’s visit this past weekend. Here’s one above in sepia tone. You can check other new photos of Darah here.
My sister Amy drove down for a weekend visit from Washington, DC on Thursday. This was the first time Amy’s seen Darah. As usual we went mini-golfing and watched some movies (Surf’s Up in the theater and some others on DVD). Of course we did plenty of other stuff too. The whole weekend was a [...]
