Favorite Apps: iVideoCamera

18, Jan 2010

So, I’m sitting here at work with nil to do today so I thought I’d share one of my favorite new apps on my iPhone.  It’s called iVideoCamera.
I bought my iPhone a little over a year ago in October 2008.  I replaced an aging Palm Treo 700p that did all the things that the iPhone [...]

C25K Podcasts

8, Oct 2009

As part of my latest endeavor going from the couch to running a 5k  race I’m using one of the many podcasts that are available on the subject.  Most of these podcasts are based on the Couch to 5K running program from Coolrunning.com.

5, Oct 2009

Do you know when something just isn’t quite right?  You’re walking in a parking lot and feel like someone’s following you?  You’re jogging in the park and think someone is about to jump out and mug you?  How about online?  You hop on your favorite social network and someone you know starts a weird chat [...]

Grown Up Things

29, Jul 2009

This comic really summed up the way I feel a lot of the time when doing “grown up” things.

The even bigger one is sending me home with a freakin’ baby.  Don’t they know I’m a huge goof?   The SPCA checks you out more intensely when you want to adopt a dog at [...]

Picasa SafeDelete, Not So Safe

29, May 2009

Here’s the situation. It’s roughly 12am on a Thursday night. The wife, Laurie, reminds me that she wants to send in some photographs to Walmart for pick-up the next day. Seems like a simple enough task, so I fire up Picasa to download the photos.
Here’s where things go terribly wrong.
There are three options in Picasa [...]

Chicken No. 4 – Souvenir Hat

22, Apr 2009

So, yesterday Matt & Nate turned 5 years old.  We decided to abuse them, and the rest of the family, by taking the happiest place on Earth.  Great time.  Everyone was extremely exhausted.  I wonder if they’ll kill anyone at school today.
