  • Motherfucking Snakes

    Pseudo-spoilers ahead. Last night, Mike, Emily, Morah, and I went to see Snakes on a Plane. With all the hype surrounding this film, it was no surprise that the AMC had it showing in one of their giant theatres. You know, the ones that hold hundreds of people. So was it any surprise that, in…

  • Two Months

    Two months from today, Morah and I will be in Honolulu, getting married! Only two months? We’d better get to work! There’s still plenty to do…

  • King of Surf Guitar

    Last Saturday, Mike, Emily, Morah, and I went to see Dick Dale perform at the Festival at Sandpoint. Holy crap. Second only to the Rolling Stones as most kickass concert I’ve ever been to, Dick Dale can shred. He pointed out that there was a limit to how loud and crazy he could get and…

  • I’m Doing the Weight Loss Shake

    And by weight loss shake, I mean the dance, not the beverage (although, I do usually have a weight loss shake for breakfast). Why am I dancing the Weight Loss Shake? Because today is the day that I lost my first ten pounds! It took a little over a month (I started on 30 June)…

  • More Fun at Silverwood

    Last August, I went to Silverwood Theme Park, rode roller coasters for the first time, and had a blast. This year, I went again and had yet more fun. I rode on all of the roller coasters again, but this time, the big attraction was the new thrill ride, Panic Plunge. Panic Plunge is a…

  • RIP: Carol Lafferty

    My aunt Carol recently passed away and is being laid to rest this afternoon. Death is often described as having a “terrible swiftness.” Though that is often not the case, the sudden passing of a loved one can feel untimely. When it took her life, it took my words. Even now, I am unsure what…

  • Outdoor Webcam Offline

    As you can see, the outdoor webcam is offline. It’s been offline for several days and will probably be offline for quite a while longer. After my computer crashed the other night (the day after Microsoft officially stopped supporting Windows 98! Hmm…), I had to delete the video drivers to be able to view anything…

  • Lost

    To save everyone from further bad resolution related puns, I’m going to write this post now. I just finished season one of Lost last night. Oh. My. God. The pilot? The pilot! Best. Pilot. Evar. Usually pilot episodes are pretty lousy, but every once in a great while we get a gem. Perhaps it was…

  • Resolution Revelations

    I’ve been meaning to write this entry for a couple of weeks now, but for a number of reasons, never got around to it. So before I put it off yet again, here is an update on my 2006 New Year’s Resolutions. Eat right – Life change. That’s what I said about my eating habits…

  • Nothing like Something for Nothing

    I love getting stuff without having to pay for it. I’m not talking about stealing, here, I mean using gift certificates and stuff. I have an Amazon.com credit card, on which I earn one point for each dollar I spend (three points when I shop on Amazon). Every 2500 points, they send me a gift…
