15 by august recap
Well, the ’15 in August’ campaign has had some setbacks. As I mentioned, I stopped entering my data into the LoseIt app pretty quickly. Maybe 2 or 3 weeks in. And while it’s true that I know what 1800 calories looks like, the daily shaming of entering my edibles into the app that I’m not […]

htpc trigger pulled
We got an email from a small local telecommunications firm a few weeks ago to inform us that they are now offering fiber optic TV/Web/Phone service in our area. We aren’t interested in TV or phone, but I think I’ve been clear that I’m interested in internet service. When we moved in four years ago […]

unnecessary alterations
Everyone hates BP these days. Agreed? Although I suggest you take a look at the man in the mirror at some point too. They were there drilling in the first place for you, so you can drive your car around and heat your home. Well, they don’t exactly care about you but they know their […]

quick cali pics
I thought I’d throw a few pics up here that I took with my phone while we were in California. The best camera is the one you have with you. I found that I was extremely rusty when it came to operating my bigbad camera so I’m not particularly happy with many of the shots […]

lose it – week one
I won’t be doing these on a regular basis but I thought I’d just share some thoughts regarding the mission. I’ve never in my life counted calories. And only in the last 4 or 5 years have I exercised irregularly to ‘stay in shape’. Or, stymy my decline. I once stuffed a chocolate covered pastry […]

fiyah!
We were just evacuated from the building by the fire alarm. The restaurant downstairs has taken up smoking…. meats. They started a few weeks ago with a little mini smoker in the open parking area behind the building, which smelled delicious, and then it seemed they stopped. No. They apparently ‘upgraded’ to a yankee fridge […]

car talk
I mentioned my car’s in the shop for repairs. It needed new tires and the front passenger side brake caliper was seizing. It’s a problem I’ve been having with this car since I bought it a little over 2 years ago. When it started to exhibit the telltale behavior I drove it as quickly as […]

htpc – take 2
I thought I’d take a real quick look at building my own HTPC from scratch, because I was sorta impressed with what I saw when I peeped around for that previous post. This case isn’t terrible.
