Updates, movie reviews, and such

Thursday, July 30th, 2009

A) I have this LONG update I was writing about my camping trip and I just never managed to finish it.  so Cliffs:
1) I REALLY like shooting guns.  Springfield XD40, Mossberg 12ga, and Browning .22 are in my future.  wooooooo.
2) Riding quads was a blast and I’d love to do more of it.  Wasn’t enough [...]

An open letter to General Motors

Thursday, April 30th, 2009

This will bore some of you. Such is life.
To Whom it may concern:
I know that I don’t have any big fancy degree in business management and I’m not from Detroit, but I’m a big time car enthusiast with a sharply analytical mind who would love nothing more than to buy a good looking, well [...]

Politics and silliness

Friday, April 10th, 2009

Weeeeeeeeehooo!
First off- Congrats to Iowa and Vermont! “As Iowa goes, so goes the nation” is a phrase heard around national election time but this time around, some people are hoping that’s not the case. The Iowa Supreme Court has stated that banning gay marriage is unconstitutional. It’s just one of a couple steps [...]

Wow

Monday, March 30th, 2009

What an awesome weekend.
First (This isn’t in order, just the biggest thing)- My wife ran 23 miles yesterday. Twenty Freaking Three. And she looked GOOD. Not like Jessica Biel good, but I bet she looked way better than Biel would have after twenty-three miles of running. How crazy is that? [...]

What’s your green?

Tuesday, February 3rd, 2009

A good friend of mine is working on a project revolving around sustainability and “green” living. I was interviewed at “Show me your green” and while the quotes aren’t exact, they’re close and it did make me think about the entire green/tree-hugger/envirogeek thing. What’s it mean to you to be “green?” Do [...]

Too many projects

Friday, January 9th, 2009

I have a LOT of stuff I want to do. I simply don’t have the time, space, and money to do everything I’d like to do.
But I want to do them so I’m gonna throw them out here so people can see what I’m up to, what I’d like to be up to, and [...]

Learn to drive!

Monday, December 15th, 2008

No really- Living out here where 3 inches of snow constitutes a snow day or a work from home day has made me laugh a little.
First off- the Rav is awesome. C-monkey has the day off school so I drove to work in her car and WOW. I am glad I did. [...]

The shrinking three

Thursday, December 4th, 2008

By now you’ve heard all about the Big Three (an increasing misnomer) returning to Washington to beg the government for a bailout. You’ve probably heard them say that if they go under, the economy will fail. You may have heard about their last visit to Washington in which each of the execs flew [...]

What a weekend!

Monday, November 3rd, 2008

Usually I eschew punctuation in my titles, but this weekend deserves an exclamation.
1- Carley had a birthday. She’s officially MORE than a quarter century old. I am starting a betting pool now taking dates for when my beloved wife ends up in a nursing home with no teeth and silver hair. I’ve [...]

Past Due

Wednesday, July 9th, 2008

Ok so there’s a lot to read this time around.
1- Walnuts noticed that my weight slider hasn’t changed recently. I’ve been in a slump and my weight showed no noticeable change for quite a while. I went to Chicago and ate like a jackass for a week and gained 2 lbs. I [...]
