In my last post, I said that tomorrow I would take apart the Sally Quinn article line by line. It turns out that tomorrow has come a little early today.
Instead of literally line-by-line, I’ll quote her a paragraph at a time, to make my cut-and-paste work slightly less tedious.
Palin’s Pregnancy Problem
That’s the title [...]
I haven’t been posting too actively lately. Not because I haven’t had anything to say, and not because I haven’t had the time to say it. Mostly, it’s been because I’ve had a ton to say, and whenever I waited (for whatever reason) a bit to say it, it felt too trivial to post after [...]
Well, another month with a fair amount of poker frustration. That said, it was also a very good month on some other levels, including eeking out a small profit.
Without further ado, let’s get the economics out of the way: +$140.46.
Hardly earthshaking. In fact, as reported numerous times now, since I don’t play as much, and [...]
There are many ways to tell this story, and I’m sure that I’ll pick the wrong one…
Before I start railing, let me state that for the most part, Lois and I like Home Depot, and the majority of our in-store experiences have been very positive.
On to our tale of woe. We have outdoor space in [...]
We have great friends who have two wonderful sons. Last year, the younger son married a terrific woman. We were invited and acknowledged that we would attend. A few weeks later, we were invited to another wedding on the same date. We knew that bride from her birth (25 years!), and ended up going to [...]
Last night we saw Earl Klugh perform at the Blue Note in NYC. There is a good back-story to this, but in deference to Lois’ tastes, I’ll leave it for the end. I encourage you to read all the way through, especially if you know us personally.
A few weeks back we went to [...]

I perform the majority of the software administration and maintenance myself, and they maintain all of the hardware along with some of the software.

I won’t be playing tonight, so I can safely report this month’s results now.
Given the past few months, this one was financially successful. That said, it was extremely unsatisfying financially, while simultaneously being extremely satisfying from a having a good time perspective. I guess you can’t have it all.
So, the bottom line first, [...]
Last night couldn’t come soon enough for us. We loved Dave Mason’s show at Blend Bar on March 6, 2008 (covered in this post). The experience at Blend Bar was less than special, but the show was awesome. We immediately grabbed two tickets to see Dave again on April 4th at BB King, a place [...]
So, I tweeted the other day that I updated to WordPress 2.6 successfully, but didn’t blog about it. I am very pleased with the changes, though I had two minor frustrations, one was WP’s fault, the other not.
First, the goodness. When 2.5 came out, they completely changed the media/image management, changing the upload and selection [...]
