Since Bombay Company is going out of business, I popped in our local store a few weeks ago to see if there were any bargains to be had. I was there a little early for the big ol' honkin' bargains,...
I just finished watching the debate. I'll keep this quick. I think the candidates all did extremely well. The winners tonight were all the Democrats out here who want to unite to beat the Republicans. I would be thrilled to...
This is going to be a long week for me. 6 days working. I'm 2 days into it and exhausted already. But then, I have been sick. I have babies on the mind (always) and old...
It’s pretty hazy tonight as well as very cold so I think I’ll be staying in. While that means no astrophotography, I thought I might do a post on some telescope-related projects that I’ve been working on.
When I bought my...
Mitt Romney wins Michigan . . . but who cares. His dad was governor. If he had not won, he promised to go on, but it would only be to his own embarrassment.John McCain began to give his speech on...
Well, do what you want, actually. And believe me, if it comes down to voting early or not voting at all, then by all means, vote early. But if you can hold it, wait until the 5th. There are...
That was quick! Mitt Romney 39% John McCain 30% Mike Huckabee 16% Ron Paul 6% Fred Thompson 4% Rudy Giuliani 3% A few thoughts:1. Rudy had really better do well in Florida.2. Stick a fork in Fred. He's done.3. For that matter, time for Ron Paul to go indy.4. I'm pleased to see...
Some of the macbook air's new features certainly take me aback. In redefining thin, MacBook Air has shed something you no longer need: the optical drive. That’s because MacBook Air is built for the wireless world. So instead of watching DVDs,...
You Belong in Soho Although you may not be a professional artist, you do dabble in one form of art or another. And you indie culture of all kinds - from little boutiques to art house films. Where Should Your Inner New Yorker...
I thought it was a fluke. Just a little binging on something he enjoyed. I gave him the fifth piece thinking he wasn’t going to actually eat it, so I would nibble on it after he was running around playing...
The new year has brought new things. Like a few nights ago when I was passed on the road by a fox. He walked calmly right past me, without so much as a glance in my direction. A surreal, funny...
“We need to amend the Constitution so it’s in God’s standards.” - Mike Huckabee
I personally can’t wait to start stoning false prophets under the auspices of U.S. Law. We can take out the vast majority of those crooks over at...
Fellas, my reflections on my time in Japan are probably going to bother a few people but, for several reasons that will surface later, it was one of the most amazing two weeks I've ever had in my life!! I realized...
If I were more clean and articulate I might have sat down and taken the time to write something as on point as this from over at Pam's House Blend. It's exactly what I've been thinking. Time to Trot out...
The Macbook Air is a very impressive engineering feat. This tiny machine blows the socks off my PowerMac G4 (which I still use in OS 9 BTW). But what’s got me all a twitter is the potential of the...

It’s not as simple as we would like for it to be. And putting it under a microscope is an idea whose time has come…
There are so many money quotes in the linked article that I’m tempted...
So, I’m sitting in Firehouse Subs in Red Bank (which long ago overtook Jersey Mike’s as the best dang sub chain ever) and I glance up at the TV and notice that Bud Selig is having a fun time testifying...
Note: I am adjusting my CrossFit training around my GJJ/Thai a little bit so now I shoot for 3-4 WOD’s per week. My workouts will alternate from the CFC homepage in that they are geared more toward crossover ‘cardio’...
This is one of scarier things I've seen so far in this campaign: There can be no mistaking what Mike Huckabee is calling for when he says he wants to change the constitution so that it conforms to "the word of...
Last summer, armed with a bike, a laptop and a perspective, Loek Hesemans came to visit Vancouver and Portland. As a Senior Policy Officer at the Ministry of Health in the Netherlands, he had come to see what the Dutch...
Here's a few I snapped of Naya Faith yesterday. This age is so very precious. She is such a little girl, dainty and affectionate. She only says a hand-full of words but she giggles and squeals a lot. She's already...
I've been playing with the rabbits this morning, trying to figure out how in the world I'm gonna litter train 'em (ummm, I mean how I'm going to help STEPHEN litter train them) and then I took some pictures for...
Okay. . .so I'm really behind on posting stuff on the blog. I'm REALLY busy!!! Anyway, I have been uploading pics and videos to my photography site and to the kids' photo albums which are accessible via steveandwilla.com....
Have you ever walked through a door and found four walls begging you to take stock of their personality? Well, that’s what it’s like walking into CreateHere’s studio on Main Street behind John Petrey's dress sculpture. The walls are covered...
I got this from Team Louisville. Although I'm not a member of Endurance Nation this looks like a great deal.As many of you know I am training with the Endurance Nation team. I wanted to pass on a cool...
Winter is one of the best four seasons to hike the GET! Daryl Warren of Wellsboro, Pa.'s Asaph Trail Club led a hike recently on part of Pennsylvania's longest and wildest footpath, Mid State Trail. This newest section of MST...
I took a different run home due to traffic issues and it was both challenging and rewarding as I got to see a lot of different scenery and was challenged by the new hills. It's also a little bit...
Yep, yep...laughfer's new favorite thang ta do is to hold her little sis. Now the days are peppered with cries of "Hold auuudummm tooooooooooo!!" --- it really is so sweet, yet ya gotta watch out for "fierce hugging" or...
It’s too late at night to get too deep into this but if i don’t get some of it out of my head I fear I might not sleep.
