  • Happy Thanksgiving!

    Morah and I drove down to Clarkston last night, and early this morning we were on the road for Walla Walla. We had Thanksgiving dinner at her aunt’s house, then drove to Yakima to her grandparents’ house, where we’ll spend the rest of the weekend. I hope everyone had as delicious of a Thanksgiving as…

  • Nazi Graphic Design

    Despite how awful the Nazis were, you have to admit that they had excellent graphic design and brand cohesion.

  • A Departure

    You may have noticed that I didn’t write posts for Saturday and Sunday. I thought about writing back-posts to make up for it, but then I realized how unnecessary that is. The reason for trying to write a post every single day this month was to get me writing again, which has definitely happened. Back-writing…

  • HDTV

    Morah and I finally received our HDTV converter box rebate coupons on the mail, so today we bought a couple. Being a video guy, hooking them up was a no-brainer, and the setup process was equally easy. The real surprise came when I saw the image quality. Even on my lousy old CRT television, the…

  • The Will, The Wall

    Every so often I get the desire to create something. Unfortunately, this desire doesn’t usually include websites. I want to paint a picture, build furniture, draw a web comic, shoot a video, and so on. The problem (besides not having enough time) is that I often lack the muse, the tools, or the technical skills…

  • Weird Habits

    How many of you have weird habits? For example, when I walk past things, I tend to touch them. For example, when I walk down the stairs at work, there is a soffit overhead that I usually reach up and touch. Often when I walk through doorways, I touch the doorknob or doorjamb. When we…

  • Daylight Saving Time Sucks

    Seriously, can’t we all just adjust however we feel appropriate? If you really need that extra sunlight, buy a sunlamp, get a job that allows you keep your own hours, or move toward the equator. Just don’t make me change my clock for your own arbitrary benefit. Not only is the clock changing annoying (especially…

  • A New Raking Challenge

    I came home a couple of days ago to find this: The entire yard and driveway are covered in these seed pods. They really suck. They’re nearly impossible to rake up, because they slip through the tines of the rake. They can be moved off of the concrete fairly easily with the blower or a…

  • Why I Can’t Blog

    Alright, the title of this post is bit of a lie. Obviously, I can blog, the trouble is that I never do. This whole, “every day in November” thing is seriously pushing me to the limits. The first problem is that I don’t have anything to say. I often think, “gee, I haven’t written a…
