I don’t normally post a lot about music on this blog because I’m way too old and boring to be on the cutting edge anymore (if, indeed, I ever was … which is questionable). Also I’m really picky so it’s rare that I find more than one album at a time that I really dig. [...]
Well, we’ve been in Indianapolis for a month now, and what a month it’s been … Let’s do a list of highs and lows, shall we? Cool Broad Ripple is an awesome neighborhood with lots of quality restaurants and bars within an easy walk. We love our house, even tho the air conditioner occasionally pours [...]
Charlotte and I spent the weekend in Indianapolis, hanging out with our friends Gabe (my fellow Crispy Gamer developer) and Brett (his wife). We drove all over the place, exploring neighborhoods, making jokes, nearly running over small children … the usual, you know? We visited many apartments and houses … mostly houses, actually. I think [...]
Sometimes We Walk Alone by Ankur Shah My review rating: 4 of 5 stars Ankur Shah is not like me. I don’t mean the fact that he’s of Indian descent and I’m of Anglo-Saxon descent, though that’s true. I also don’t mean that he’s studied the teachings of Gandhi and I haven’t, though that is [...]
Well, I’ve spent the past six weeks toiling away on a massive redesign of Crispy Gamer, and it’s finally launched. I’m really proud of what we managed to accomplish with it, especially given that our entire development staff was me (XHTML, CSS, JavaScript, Design) and my good friend Gabe (C#, SQL, ASP.Net, etc). We did [...]
I’ve taken it upon myself to enact two projects involving my personal appearance. The first, and most important, is the LOSE 25 POUNDS PROJECT. I weigh 213, which is the most I’ve weighed since I met my wife. We successfully dieted in 2006-2007, and I dropped down to below 180. At my wedding, I weighed [...]
… this is not a pornographic post, despite the topic. Tonight I’m going to see The Vagina Monologues. Surprisingly, this is not related to Valentine’s Day, which we’ll discuss in a second. This event, rather, came about because a friend of ours was promoting the show. Charlotte’s seen it, and liked it, and I’ve heard [...]
My wife and friends are all doing this on facebook, and I’ll be posting it there as well, but what the heck … might as well post it to ye olde blog too. — Rules: Once you’ve been tagged, you are supposed to write a note with 25 random things, facts, habits, or goals about [...]
No, no they’re not.
Between the post about not having played Portal (which I’ve since rectified) and this post, I’m beginning to think that I should have a “shameful secrets” section on this blog. I mean, let’s be honest here … this is a pretty absurd admission. I barely even watch television, normally — an occasional “Iron Chef” or [...]
