Yesterday, I wrote about the varied process I take in writing a story. Today, dealing with it going “out there”. There’s really just one thing you need to do, although it can be tough as hell. Let it go. Don’t forget about it, but let it go. Here’s where I’m coming from. I’ve been working [...]

Hey, look! It’s my 200th post. Ah, what would we do without nice, big, round numbers to celebrate things. In honor of this auspicious number, I thought I’d write about the process I use to write stuff besides blog posts. The timing is good as well as I just finished revising a story I’m doing [...]

Last week was pretty slow here at the blog, but things are in the pipeline. More Audrey pictures are coming up and should be available in the next couple of days. Got a geeky blog coming up over the next day or two as well. However, this week might be a bit hit or miss. [...]
After two dismal attempts at a blog post today, well–sometimes it’s just better to admit you tried and start fresh the next day. Instead, here’s a video from Devo for you to enjoy.

Y’know how you mean to blog about something over the course of a couple of days but the universe conspires against you? Yeah, that happened. More about this later, but not much today. Lying low a bit after passing through a tornado warning not too long ago. More tomorrow.

Or for those of you on the other side of the pond, the more appropriate designation of football. World Cup time is here and although I have not seen a match yet, I’ve been keeping tabs on how the tournament is going. I found this post from io9 which talks about “the impossible goal”. Maybe [...]

Today my parents celebrate their 44th anniversary. I am really bad at getting them a card each year, but I always think about them. But they set a good example for me and having a solid relationship like theirs has been the gold standard for me. Luckily, I’m married to a wonderful woman and have [...]

It’s been a week since the super awesome fun time that I had at w00tstock 2.3 at the Guthrie Theater. I could write about the five incredible geek filled hours and what happened at the show, but there are likely better accounts of it. Not only that, I’d posit it’s actually hard to encapsulate the [...]

If you don’t want to read about what it took to get the Family page to it’s current glory, skip the next two paragraphs. The tl;dr version is getting various technologies to work with one another when you don’t fully understand them is hard. If you have seen the family page, you should notice a [...]

Well, you asked for it. For those of you interested in new and old Audrey pictures, hop right on over there and enjoy the fruits of my labor. Don’t ask how long it took to get it to work…you really don’t want to know. It is a dicey setup and not one I’m am convinced [...]
Getting the Right Call

Odd topic for me, but let’s talk baseball. Specifically, let’s talk about the blown call last night in the Tigers/Tribe tilt last night which cost a young pitcher a perfect game. I’ve seen the clip and the first base umpire blew the call which should have been the very last out of the game. You [...]
A couple years ago, I didn’t see much point in websites like MySpace or Facebook. MySpace’s user demographics seemed to skew much, much younger than I was willing to accept and just my cursory glances at people’s pages made my head hurt. To me, it was more than just an eyesore and it sealed my [...]
