Things about my life.
I’ve got a new online comic I’ve started reading today. It’s called Stark Reality. It’s part of a gaming web site done by some game developers in Australia. One strip in particular reminded me of myself a bit.
Yeti Sports now has Yeti Sports 4: Albatros Overload out. This time you throw a penguin up to an albatros, then flap the albatros’ wings to keep it above the ground. My best single attempt so far is 1377.01.
Slashdot has an article up regarding an official Commodore 64 30-in-1 TV game, much like the Atari and Activision games that are currently out. I cut my gameing teeth on the Atari, Coleco and the Commodore 64. 30 games from my youth I never thought I’d see again? I’d put down the cash for that [...]
I was pretty disappointed with the way the race on Sunday ended. No, it wasn’t the fact that the race ended under caution (I’ll talk about that in a minute though). It wasn’t the fact that Dale Jr. didn’t win (I think that Gordon was ahead when the caution came out). It was the horrible [...]
I have my shiny new iPod sitting next to me charging at the moment. I’ve only synced the music on my desktop at this point, which is a small portion of what I’ve got ripped. Most of it is on my laptop at the moment. I’ve used it for a bit though, and it is [...]
I’m sad that Pat Tillman died. However, I think his death is getting way too much media attention. How many people have died in the military in the last month? Most of them don’t even get their names mentioned, much less a front page story on every web site in the free world. Just because [...]
We got our new cell phones yesterday. Only took AT&T 3 days to get everything transfered over. For them, I consider that good. I got the Sony Ericsson T226, which seems to suit most of my needs nicely. Kate got the Motorola V400 Camera Phone which has a speaker phone and, of course, the camera. [...]
Finshed up Beyond Good and Evil tonight. What am amazing game. It’s too bad that it didn’t sell better, since that means a sequel is unlikely. The game just flowed. It had lots of different types of game play, but they all flowed together wonderfuly to make a beautiful whole. The plot was wonderful. Deep, [...]
We had a family outting to Wegmans today. It’s a new grocery store that opened up around here not too long ago. Kate loves it. She’s talked about it so much I just had to see it. So we went there and ate lunch. (Yes, there is a pretty much a whole restaurant in the [...]
We took Xander to a birthday party today for one of his friends at Little Gym. He had a great time. I’ve got some pics and video I need to get uploaded. His favorite thing appeared to be the zip line, but he had a great time overall as well. After that we went to [...]
Today I feature an article I can only assumed was commisionsed by the Howard Hughes Society. It starts out great. If you’re at your work desk, you might as well be sitting on a toilet. I’ve often thought that would improve productivity. My favorite quote from the article? “Wooo,” said Clarence Bir, sales manager for [...]
Turns out I had Fifth Disease back when I was so sick last month. Xander was sick after that and he broke out in the rash yesterday. I had the same rash after I got sick. Kate talked to the doctor about it while we had Mira in to be looked at yesterday and sure [...]
Xander does a great job dropping off at school in the mornings. I’m very proud of him for it. However, sometimes it’s a little hard on me because he does so well. This morning was a good example. We talk about a lot of different things on the way in to school in the mornings. [...]
We had a very nice Easter weekend. Saturday morning Xander and I went off to Home Depot to get stuff to deal with the lawn, which I’ve not been very good about in years past. I’m trying to do a better job of it this year. So we got some mulch and fertilizer for the [...]
