It’s usually a good feeling to be coming home after a trip. I’ve had a good time in Tampa, but I’m a bit of a homebody. There are some places I can be for prolonged periods of time. I never want to leave Colorado, for instance. Hanging out with my in-laws, who leave right by [...]

At Last…
My power cord finally came in yesterday before church. Thank you, dear God!
Now I’m off to Tampa for General Conference. The two biggest reasons I’m going is to see my dad preach Friday night and see my in-laws (along with my sister/brother-in-law). I’m not much of a fan of conferences of that size. Not that [...]

Sunday Night Shots
Last Saturday night, Shari and I got back home from a wedding. She had on a “different” kind of outfit, so we decided to take a few pictures in the backyard, using these ultra-bright halogen lights. Combined with the pitch-black darkness, it provided a pretty cool effect. I thought I’d post a few on here [...]

This picture was on FOX’s main page. I just wanted to share.

Sony’s Woes
I remember the first time I saw a Playstation. Not a PS2 or PS3; I’m talking about the original. You know…silver-colored finish with a circular lid that popped up like a toilet seat?
I didn’t have a clue as to what it was. To me, gaming meant one of two things: Nintendo or SEGA. I wasn’t [...]

Open Mic with Ahmadinejad
From Reuters…
Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad went comedic while speaking to Columbia University students. Well, at least he gave it a shot…
When Ahmadinejad, speaking in Farsi, actually tried to crack a joke, it drew no laughter, although maybe the nuance was lost in translation.
“Let me tell a joke here,” Ahmadinejad said. “I think the politicians who [...]

iPhone Hackers Beware
From MacWorld.
I love the way that Apple phrases this…
Apple ended its silence on unlocking the iPhone via third-party hacks with a warning Monday that unlocked iPhones may become inoperable.
“Apple has discovered that many of the unauthorized iPhone unlocking programs available on the Internet cause irreparable damage to the iPhone’s software, which will likely result in [...]

Hitler: Honorary Guest(?)
I’ve always had a thing against liberal universities. How many prominent left-leaning liberal universities are there out there? Harvard? Yale? Columbia? Stanford? I think, for the sake of brevity, that one would have a much easier time making a list of conservative colleges out there.
Liberal bias in America’s colleges isn’t exactly [...]

Power Cord Woes Continue + eBay Junk
Oh, how exciting…I had a friend use his cord to charge up my PowerBook two days ago, and I’ve been saving the power for today so I could check my Email at home. I’ve been using the Mac Pro at church for all the essentials.
I received an Email today from an eBay “powerseller” who I [...]

The Jena Six
Haven’t heard about the Jena Six? I’ll give you a quick update.
On August 31, 2006, three black high school students decided to sit under a tree at their high school in Jena, Louisiana. One of the students had asked the principal in jocular fashion if it would be okay if they sat underneath it. The [...]
