I’ve made another change to this blog, this one a bit more obvious than the last. I changed the layout and look of the site. I did this for a couple reasons. I just wanted a more advanced look than it was before. I’m still fine tuning this
I have added a feature to the blog that I hope will be enjoyable. If you look at the top of the sidebar on the right, you will see “Mitch Hedberg Quote”, followed by a quote. Those quotes are from the acts of my favorite comedian, Mitch Hedberg. (Well, I
Well, as you can tell, I didn’t do as well as I thought I would with blogging from Europe. It was very much a whirlwind trip. We didn’t slow down long enough to even write. We would wake up in one country, and be four countries away by

Earlier I wrote a post talking about a pet peeve that I have. I mentioned that I didn’t like the phrase, “I have a question for you. Call me Back”. I basically mentioned that when I get a message like that on my machine, I usually don’t call
Yesterday I was reading some of my favorite blogs and I came across a very interesting story. Recently, a professor at Berkeley had his laptop stolen by one of the students in his class. The student, hoping to get questions and answers to the upcoming exam, got alot more then
There are five shows on television that I really enjoy watching each week. Four of the five of them are on after 9PM so I rarely watch them on a real television. (that’s past my bedtime) Instead, I have my Powerbook automatically find them online the morning after they
There are a few reasons I love living in Las Vegas. I know that Las Vegas is really marketed to tourists and most people don’t know much outside of the strip, but I’m ok with that and this is why. Las Vegas is constantly have big concerts and
I was in San Francisco this last weekend. I love it there. The weather was so sunny and warm. I also love how the city and it’s resident are conastantly putting on events, fairs, and markets. This last time there was “Brazil Days” right in front of the city
