Thinking like the Physically Disabled
While listening to a recent podcast of This American Life (TAL) it made me realize the troubles that the disabled have to go through in this country. I don’t mean the way others treat them differently, although that certainly is an issue, but rather the little things we take for granted. The sad thing is…

October Calendar
I forgot the September calendar! (Whoops!) Here’s the October calendar. Click on the image for your monitor’s resolution and then set it as your desktop.

When Achievements are a Good Thing
?At first I ridiculed achievements/trophies. The idea that grown men and women (and, heck anyone over 12 years old) would care about getting these achievements enough to continue playing through their games until they earned them all seemed ludicrous. Then, I acknowledged it was a fun way to compete with friends in games that are…

The Difference Between European and American Fashion
I was recently reading issue 15 of 125 Magazine and came across the following quote by Albert Watson. [Americans] seemed to want fasion to be more of the people, more of the mass. Chairman Mao had all the Chinese dressing the same, and from a different base in America they arrived at something not to…

Results of a Plastic Point of View
Thursday (22 Apr) as I drove into work, I knew the first few hours would be unbearable. My photos were waiting to be picked up from L’Imagerie, but they weren’t open until 1000. So I had to wait until my lunch break to go pick them up. The whole day I didn’t know what to…

A Word About Our Sponsors
Unlike some other web admins, I respect your ability to choose to have ads blocked. The ad providers brought them upon themselves by making ads really freakin’ annoying into the mid-2000s. I just want to say that I don’t run any of those kinds of ads on this site. I have an ad for Servint,…

The End of Braid Part 2 of ?
Don’t worry, this blog isn’t about to become some weird fan tribute blog to Braid. It’s more of a case of trying to make sense of the game I’ve just played. There’s really no reason to make sense of The Beatles Rockband. You are one of The Beatles playing music. There’s nothing to “get”. But…

Hawaii Day 5
And now it’s time for the conclusion of my Hawaii travel photo blog. (Started Here) The first photos are Friday EST, but still Thursday in Hawaii. That night I was bored so I set up my tripod on my balcony and shot some night scenes. The following day work ended around lunchtime and my flight…

Hawaii Day 4
In yesterday’s post I mentioned how I overcame my shyness and it led to a good picture. That doesn’t mean I stopped taking candid photos. I wonder what she thought when she saw the camera pointed her way. Afterwards I shot some photos of the guy with a million balloons who happened to be passing…

Hawaii Day 3
I think everyone has seen a street performer painted in metal and dressed in clothes with a metallic-looking surface. I’ve seen them in Miami, Vegas, and Fort Lauderdale. But only in Honolulu have I seen three of them on the same street only a block from each other. At first when I saw the guy…

A Sunday Afternoon Bike Ride
There were a few things we were excited about being able to do once we had a house – do laundry without sharing the machines, get away from noisy wall/ceiling neighbors, BBQ in our yard, and own bicycles. Being extremely clean, we were unable to own bikes at the apartment because we had nowhere to…
