Also curtesy Ingle’s, lunch is a delicious (if large) collection of bargains. I downed a ham and cheese sandwhich and a dozen deviled eggs (6 whole eggs). For dessert, I’ll be packing down a half-pound puddle of pudding – bannana. There are also still four doughnuts from this morning that I need to take care… Continue reading Lunch: Recipes for Disaster

There and Back Again…and There Again
So I get into work this morning at 10-till-7:00am. This would give me plenty of time to work-out and take a shower before I start my day out. Everything is going as planned until I open the rear, driver-side door to get my gym bag. There on my rear, passenger-side seat sits the baby’s car… Continue reading There and Back Again…and There Again
SpaceShipOne Wins $10 Million Ansari X Prize in Historic 2nd Trip to Space
This day in history! SpaceShipOne reaches a height exceeding the requirements for the Ansari X prize. This achievment is said to be the door to spaceward tourism, though I’m not as concerned about that. I would certainly enjoy a flight to space, but I’m guessing the price is a bit steep at the moment. We… Continue reading SpaceShipOne Wins $10 Million Ansari X Prize in Historic 2nd Trip to Space
Your Vote Could Win You 10 Million $$
NPR this morning spoke of adding a lottery to the voting process. The proposal would likely guarantee a 100% turnout, up from the meager 50% (including my absence).
Map of Springfield
Slashdot introduced me to this “obsessively detailed map of Springfield” this morning. I rather like the town’s layout. The obvious next move is to build the city in your favorite Sim of choice (e.g. SimCity). Bonus points for anyone that can do it in Rise of Nations. While this covers the Simpson’s, I’m hoping that… Continue reading Map of Springfield
Commuter Blues (Cont.)
So I didn’t actually get up in time to be at work at 6:00am the other day. I missed my ride and had to drive myself through annoying traffic. However, I was able to comprehend the alarm clock this morning and proceeded to get up and begin my morning duties. The drive in took us… Continue reading Commuter Blues (Cont.)
Commuter Blues
For those of you who commute, this is an all too familiar problem to you. It took me slightly more than two hours to get to work this morning. This is ridiculous, perhaps not to some, but to me. It’s only thirty-seven miles from my doorstep to my chair, and it takes between one and… Continue reading Commuter Blues
Dragon*Con – Sunday
We finally returned home this morning around 4:00am. I don’t remember the last time I was out that late – probably when I was in school. We had a killer time. The masquerade was, as always, better than last year’s. The costumers continue to better themselves and put together amazing works. We’re wondering what happens… Continue reading Dragon*Con – Sunday
A Morning with Omar
I doubt many of you have heard of Omar Faruk Tekbilek, but you should probably give him a shot. The group is Turkish, or at least the music is. There are some really cool rythyms in it, especially if you like drumming. So this morning I crank up Omar while we get ready to go… Continue reading A Morning with Omar
