Hardees – Lame as it Ever Was

I don’t have anything personally against Hardees, but I really don’t see how they are in business still… This whole plot to re-invent themselves with the giant burgers made of 100% angus is interesting, but if you can’t even eat it without the bun falling a part or getting so soggy in mayo that the […]

The Gadget Cycle

It seems like every couple years, the gadget cycle starts up again. My cell phone, the Sony-Ericsson t68i has been replaced by a succesor (and I’ve decided just to cancel service all together), the digital camera– a Sony DSC-S75 with it’s 3.3 megapixel resolution is now begging to be replaced by a Canon Digital Rebel […]

Visiting

It seems like there is hardly any time for just sitting around and visiting anymore. With work, family and the Internet and everything else that seems to come up, it’s a rare moment that I find time to relax and get to know someone better. Tonight I had the opportunity do so and it was […]

Hardware

Tonight I bought a 160gb hard drive from CompUSA (80 bucks after rebates for the next couple days) and attempted to install it. Isn’t it funny how if you know how to use a computer for anything, ignorant people automatically assume you know how to do everything on computers? Well, I feel sorry for the […]

Today I added a quick links section on the left hand side of this site. It’s a separate blog that I can post quick, interesting links to as I find them without creating a whole new entry in the main blog. Inspired by WhatDoIKnow. I need to sleep more and play less…

Hot Wheels Appeal

If you’re a guy in the US (possibly elsewhere, and maybe if you’re a girl too, I can only speak for my own sex & country), and if you’ve ever had any tendency to collect anything at all, you’ve probably collected (or at least been tempted to collect) Hot Wheels. I’m not sure what it […]

New Design!

Finally, I’m no longer using the default Movable Type design for the front page! This one is probably not going to last a long time, but it’s at least something a little more interesting. The default Movable Type templates are all CSS and use only one table for the calendar. I’m not ready to spend […]

Words of Warning

Being a web designer/developer is addictive! I’m not sure what it is that causes it, but once you’re in, you’re in and there’s no way of getting out (even if you want to). It seems like if a couple months pass by and I haven’t designed a new site, I’ll find myself randomly thinking of […]
