Where Are The Wise Men?

Gina and I are timeshifters, so that is why I’m talking about a TV show the premired a couple of nights ago — we just watched it last night.

Of course, I’m talking about “Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip,” probably one of the most talked about shows this season.  And for good reason — it’s [...]

If you’ve been following my geocaching posts, you have probably realized that I keep everything in a GPX (read: XML ) file and go lookups on that.  The reason is simple: with a GPX file you can keep everything together in one place and use GPSBabel to do “queries”  on that.  An important query for [...]

Yesterday was my birthday.  I’m 32 now.  Nothing exciting happens at 32, really.

Some highlights:

Leah colored on my card and then colored it some more before her aunt came to watch her.  When her aunt showed up, Leah gave her my card.
Gina and I went to T-Bones Grillhouse [...]

I found cache number 66 yesterday.  That number isn’t a milestone in the geocaching world, but it also coincides with my one anniversary of finding my first geocache. 

It almost seems longer than that, but in a good way.  I’ve seen so many neat parks and places around Omaha and, well, just around than I ever [...]

After messing with Django for approximately 30 minutes, I’m going to write why I immediately took to it over messing with Ruby on Rails for off and on for a few months. This is not scientific, but opinionated. Your views may not be reflected here.

It’s written in Python, which I know a lot [...]

From From Scneier’s blog. A few days old, but still a worthy read:

 Despite what you see in the movies and on television, it’s actually very difficult to execute a major terrorist act. It’s hard to organize, plan, and execute an attack, and it’s all too easy to slip up and get caught. Combine that with [...]

Somehow, somewhere, Leah found out about kites. This is very strange, since Gina nor I know anything about kites. But it doesn’t matter — she thought she should have a kite, and whenever someone came to our house (me, Gina, the babysitter, her aunt) she asked them, “buy a kite?”. So, on [...]

On Sept 11, 2001 I was on my second day back at ACI after working for ten months at a dot-com. I saw on Slashdot that a plane had hit the World Trade Center. Not many details, but I just thought it was a dumb private pilot. When we heard that a [...]

My father-in-law showed up at a camping trip early this summer with this chair. The rest of us basically fought over it the whole camping trip — it was comfortable, you didn’t feel like it was going to fall apart, it didn’t sink in the mud and it seemed to want to last forever. [...]

Gina kinda hinted at it but I’ll reveal more when things are set in stone.  Yes, we are gun-shy this time.

If you look at my del.icio.us bookmarks you will find a lot of new .Net ones.  Yes, this new position will be all, 100% .Net.  Actually. ASP.Net to be precise.  It’s an interesting turn [...]
