Asleep at the Wheel 40 Miles Left to Go
Woo-hoo! I am an uncle times three! My little sister Ange had a little boy last night (sometime around 11pm Eastern, I believe). Kieran Daniel Kealey weighs in at 6lbs 13oz. Details beyond that are sketchy, but I am told mom and baby are doing fine, and daddy’s all freaked out 😉 I was surprised […]
We played our weekly game this eve, and it was a bit of a blowout. The abnormal part about the blowout was that we were on the winning side. I kinda ran up and down the sidelines, but didn’t do a whole lot. We had decided to stick to short throws, because the long throws […]
No booze ’til Christmas, with the exception of American Thanksgiving weekend. I looked in my blue bin and was appalled at the amount of empties that have appeared there over the weekend. Couple that with sleep patterns that are all buggered up, too many fuzzy thoughts, five pounds of weight gained, and a craving for […]
…it looks like they have a new toy. The 7100-series looks a lot more like a phone than the old style Blackberry unit. They’ve changed the keyboard significantly, and from the demo it appears that they’ve taken the best of T9 and blended it somewhat with the QWERTY layout. It even has real phone features […]
I have a Blackberry 7750. I was reminded today of how painful the installation process was by a colleague who was having issues getting Win2k to recognize his. The long and the short of it is that RIM’s install software seems to be hit and miss with Windows 2000 when it comes to installing the […]
Now this is a bike tour. Apparently there are parts of the tour where you get your very own armed guard (like in Sudan). Pretty sweet though, and 3 months of fun for around 10.5k is not so bad.
Seen Hackers? The opening credits kick off with Orbital’s Halcyon and On and On set to a flyover. I had a moment like that this eve at twightlight. The light was just right, the road was completely deserted, and the tune came on via random play. The next thing I knew, I was doing 140 […]
It’s finding stuff like this that makes the interweeb fun to browse. Not so fun is realizing you’re a bit of a sick fuck for finding it really funny, and wanting one. I think I’ll be buying myself an early Christmas present or two. Threadless is a great idea – a place for designers/artists to […]
I’ve been using the new(ish) Polar 625X, and I have to say I’m impressed. It measures pretty much anything you’d want it to while running – heart rate, speed, distance, altitude (for incline/decline info), pace, and temperature – and also works with a couple cycling attachments to do all of the above plus cadence and […]
This arrived in my inbox this afternoon. Maybe I’m a tiny bit cynical, becuase I found it to be one of those “it’s funny ’cause it’s true” kind of deals: As I mature I’ve learned that you cannot make someone love you. All you can do is stalk them and hope they panic and give […]
