I drove up to Tahoe the other night to hang out with Christopher. Last night was spent drinking beer and hacking on a side project we have been working on together. More about that in later posts…
But right now, we are headed out to spend some time on the slopes. Snow has […]

…try to book flights through Pittsburgh (PIT)!
For some reason FREE wifi always puts a smile on my face, or maybe it’s due the fact that I’ve only had 2 or 3 hours of rest. Either way this should make the 2:30 hour layover fly by…

Holy Crap! I didn’t realize God was a coder. According to this song he preferred lisp of all things. I have to say the composition is just wonderful, about as good as most Christian music!

Yes that’s right, once again I have updated the look and feel to my blog. The old style was the Kurbrik design which I felt was rather nice. Well now it’s the default style in the 1.5 release of WordPress, and it seems that everyone and their mother is using it. Thus, […]

I recently updated to MoveableType 3.14. As before the template styles are pretty boring. After doing a little surfing around, I ran into this Krubrik template set.
I have done a few modifications to get the layout to look a bit better in the Archive views, but still plan on doing more […]

Well it looks as if one of my Mom’s neighbors has a wireless access point hooked up to either DSL or Cable. The throughput isn’t great, but at least I am able to check email with out having to use dialup. Pretty sweet if you ask me…
I’ll post a bit about my weekend […]

I know it’s been quite sometime since I’ve posted an entry. Anyway, I’m currently looking into new software which I can fight comment spam a little better. Until then I’m closing comments on all my old posts…
