Ah, somebody took the time to make a flash presentation that I think everyone who has e-mail access should see. Please feel free to pass this Soapbox link on to anyone you know, especially those who forward you ridiculous e-mails cursing you with bad luck for not forwarding or promising someone is going to pay…

Matilda: I became… bulimic… Derek: … you can read minds?! Hansel: *eyes widen with amazement* I am aghast. I was chatting with a friend online and tried to make a Zoolander reference. She just didn’t get it. I thought for sure that she had seen this movie and all over it. When I explained the…

I thought I was on such a good roll that I’d throw down another entry today, hehe. I don’t want to just complain in ever entry so I’ll just give a brief update. Yes, the voice is still gone 😉 So if I don’t answer my cell when you call that’s why. -tested negative for…

Well, visited the doctor again yesterday and they took some blood. They’ll let me know in the next couple days if I have anything viral. Could still be an effect of some really aggrivated allergy, the doc says (different doc yesterday than on Friday), so I’ll be on Allegra for a while along with lots…

On another subject, I stop by instacare on Friday. The doc didn’t think I had strep, but he said I have edema (uh-deem-uh), basically my throat is all swollen– duh. His bet was that it was an allergic reaction to something (maybe the smoke in the Casino in Vegas? Since that’s when I started to…

I found this geek quiz on a (geek) forum today– funny to take. A tad long, but when you have a few minutes, take it, let’s how your geekiness rates. Me? 34.91124% – Total Geek

Since May, the last Friday of every month has been Yellow Shirt Day at work, thanks to Brian Pitt– it was something he did back in the old days before his mission (He left for his mission in February of 2001 and came back to work here when he got back in February this year).…

Uncle Louis: Hey Griz, me and Bethany figured out the perfect gift for you. Clark: Oh, Uncle Louis you didn’t have to get me anything. Uncle Louis: Dammit Bethany, he guessed it… —National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation Me: Dammit Bethany! Brandon: What, out of Nesquik? Me: No, I just got an e-mail from a demonstrator named…

So I was thinking about the lunch I just had, and the thought occurred to me– why is it that I always blog about and take photos of food? Perhaps it’s one of the few variables in my relatively static life. Perhaps I really just enjoy eating that much. Maybe it’s the connection it often…

I’ve been bugged a bit lately that enetation seems to be so flakey for comments (yeah what can we expect for a free service I guess). So I’ve been playing around with hosting a commenting system on my site for my friends (since I now have this fancy-lad server with all the bells and whistles…

Have you ever missed a call on your cell phone and then wondered what the person had called about, wishing they had left a message? How about barely missing a call and calling rigth back, and the first thing they say do you is “I left a message, did you get it” but you didn’t…

Yeah, no sleepin’ in today. Once again I found myself in Provo in the morning to help get Grandma’s old condo cleaned out. Brought my camera this time, got some decent pictures of creek and of the swimming pool for old times’ sake. There’s no longer a diving board there, but I used to love…

Well, I know I’ve already talked to some of you but I thought I’d do a quick update to say that I’m home, yay. Arrived in Salt Lake around 3-ish today and have just been taking it easy. I guess when I get around to it I’ll post a few pics from Thursday, etc. Vegas…

Last day of convention today… it was pretty busy in the morning, time went pretty fast. Just wanted to post a few pictures from today and the rest of the week… in general session this morning they had the annual game show, called “Let’s Stamp a Deal” this year. In one of the pics below…

Up again at 5am, as I will be tomorrow as well. Again showered and then soaked in a bath (how people can just bathe is beyond me, who wants to soak in filthy water). Breakfast followed by another general session. So they had this guy speak in General Session today… don’t remember his name but…
