Bill Gates not top philanthropist

September 11th 2008

You know, I bet you if you do the research, this guy probably donates more money than anyone on the planet:

Maybe, Harry Weiner is the bigger giver, though, who knows.

Yes, yes. I know it’s been a hellaciously long time since I last posted. Yes, yes. I know some of you have been wondering where the [...]

Well, that’s never happend to me

May 27th 2008

So, it’s getting better and at a quicker rate, it seems, than I was lead to believe by my Interweb diagnosis. It still creeps me the hell out, and I have had this constant, phantom ache in that eye ever since I discovered the existence of the blood spot of doom, but I think I’m [...]

A week in the happiest place on earth

June 3rd 2007

How do you describe an entire week at Walt Disney World in such a small space? Easy. One word. Exhausting.
Seriously, though, we spent the whole week there, visiting MGM, Animal Kingdom, Magic Kingdom, and Epcot. In preparation for this trip, I had to shift my schedule around slightly at work, and make a whole lot [...]

Better late than never

June 3rd 2007

A few weeks ago I took Devin to his first real theme park. We went to Carowinds! What follows is the account of a boy and his roller coaster.

The week before we decided to go, Corrie Ann mentioned out of the blue that I should take the boy on an overnight trip so she could [...]

It couldn’t stay the way it was…

February 20th 2007

For those of you that complained about not being able to see The Abbot very well, here is a better shot. He’s very shy, so I hope you appreciate how difficult this was to get. Many Bothans died to bring us this rare image. Again, if you still can’t make him out, mouse over the [...]

November 27th 2006

[fa:p:id=307331644,j=r,s=s,l=p] I spent some time this Sunday, at dusk, taking some shots of the sunset. I’d been trying to catch the sunset for most of the long weekend because I wanted to get a nice backlit shot of the skeletal trees on our hill for the new site design I’m working on. It ended up [...]

Foil: Coaches College - Wrap up…

September 7th 2006

It’s been a couple of weeks since I got back from Coaches College. I feel like I’ve had plenty of time to digest the experience. Part of the delay in doing a wrap up post has been all the catching up on chores I’ve had to do. I’m not complaining, mind you; I’ve just [...]

Foil: Coaches College - Homeward Bound…

August 13th 2006

I'm sitting in the Colorado Springs Airport, mooching off of their free WiFi connection. Coaches College is officially over and I am on my way home. I'm still having a hard time codifying everything I have experienced and been through in the last ten days. It honestly feels like an eternity since I first [...]

Up there is a shot of Pike’s Peak, hiding up in the clouds, as seen from the Garden of the Gods. Today was our day off, or, rather, our afternoon off. After a morning session in the gym, and a brief seminar with some USFA officials, who discussed changes we’d [...]

Well, I promised I would post pictures tonight, and so I have. The one up there is the proof I promised of Maestro’s ribbing. Note the parenthetical name next to mine, on the name-tag outside my dorm room, for all the world to see. He also called me to the podium [...]
