One of the reason’s I’ve been itching to get my blog running is one of my newer toys: The Canon PowerShot SD10 Digital Elph. This baby is so small that it fits in my pocket better than even my wallet– so this thing goes everywhere that I go, making candid and spur of the moment…

Josh sorta chuckled in unbelief when I told him I’d post some pics today of something I’d just told him about. Not hard to understand given the number of times I had told people “yeah I may get my blog up and running this weekend”. It’s been almost 3 months since I took the old…

Blah, rant time. Sad that the only time I update is to rant. So the broadband co. came to install today– and then procede to say they can’t because of snow and ice on the house. Hello? Did you somehow MISS all the snow and ice last week when you came to see if we…

First off I need to shout out to Mel HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Hope you’re enjoying FOTR:EE 😀 Well it’s been almost a week and I’m bored at work so I thought I’d post- be warned that it’ll be a bunch of rambling gibberish– not worth your time to read. Is there a point to this post?…

So I’m just sitting there at the left turn light on State Street to turn west onto 9000 S and this guy is drivin along and bam– his wheel has, er, broken off? I’m an idiot when it comes to car parts, if you hadn’t guessed. Does suck to be him, though! (times like this…

So yeah, been over a week again since I updated– shameful. I could go off about why my blog sucks but that doesn’t really matter– I just need to find the time and motivation to change it. Heeble updated his site– I love the way he retells stories, always gets some funny lines in there.…

Ok so I don’t know what that word is I used in the title. But what I want to ask is, what are your favorite phonetically spelled out sound effects or reaction words? They can often convey much more easily one’s feeling or intent. I was chatting with a friend the other day and they…

Just imagine Strong Bad saying subject line as he did “404’d!” or “MSG’d!” Shame on you for resorting to shady material to attract visitors to your web site, Mar! Ehehehe… Mar’s web site just got blocked by our work’s Websense proxy server for the S word. Well, not that she had it on her site–…

Suddenly I’m in emulator mode again and looking at several different systems. Turns out there are Pocket PC emulators for Atari 2600, C64, NES, Gameboy, Gameboy Advance, and SuperNES (how the extra buttons on those systems are handled I have no idea). I’m stoked for the C64, Atari, and NES emulators. Though there isn’t a…

Man! My web host, Dreamhost, sent this along to me as a part of their monthly newsletter. It was a link to a TI-99/4A emulator for Windows. Perhaps only Heeble will appreciate this, but oh well! Let me explain– from my earliest days I can remember playing video games. My dad had an Atari 2600…

He looks like he’s crying… awww… he misses his mommy… either that or he really doesn’t like Shawn holding him, hehe. Oh yes, this dog will be chewing some things up, I can tell already. He’s starting with Dan’s finger… So I guess certain siblings have been trying for some time to coerce my mother…

So we left St. George Saturday morning around 10:30ish. Man, the roads were hell from 10-15 miles north of St. George until past Cedar City, maybe even till Beaver– I don’t remember. What I do remember is driving extremely slowly and extremely carefully in my 2WD Maxima, in pretty constant fear. Visibility was limited, it…

Well, on December 30th a bunch of the fam headed down to St. George for a little break from the mad weather we were having up here in Sandy. Though it wasn’t terribly warm there, 50’s feels pretty warm compared to the 20s and teens we’ve been in up here lately! We spent Tuesday evening…

No, I haven’t seen that movie. It sure was fun digging out the cars and shoveling tons of snow. I know my back sure enjoyed it! I heard a storm was coming and it was snowing pretty good when I got home on the evening of the 25th, but I really hadn’t expected the biggest…

So Friday was Ty’s wedding, at which I was the best man. Until the rehearsal on Wednesday I had almost forgot that that meant I would be the one to hold the rings. Even then, it didn’t really strike me until Ty actually gave me the wedding band to hold on to before the wedding…
