So, the election … /sigh

I’ve been relatively quiet online regarding my political stance and since tomorrow’s the election, I figured I’m safe to blog a bit now without having to worry about fielding too many questions from people that 1) disagree with me, or 2) think they agree with me, but aren’t sure. Here’s my take. I am a…

THIRTY ONE!!

Another year and another birthday! 31 isn’t really a milestone, so it wasn’t quite the event of the big three-oh. However, I recently purchased a new laptop so I could seel my older one to my sister who was in need of a capable computer. Plus I bought a car, so all told it was…

I’m 30. Yikes.

Well, on 9/9 I turned 3/0. I really didn’t think much about it, other than my prediction not coming to pass. Prediction? Well, I told Jaime soon after we were married that I had this feeling that I wouldn’t make it to 30. I didn’t know why, but I think it had something to do…

Thank You! Come Again!

Wellity, Wellity, Wellity… It appears that one of the neatest marketing gimmicks that has ever befallen mankind has befallen mankind in Burbank, CA (among other places). Turns out, this Kwik-E-Mart is about 2 minutes from my place of work in sunny Burbank, so I stopped by after work today. I’ve been a long-time Simpsons nut,…

A Topic for Andy

You wanted a topic, here’s one. Why do you think, after all these years, do I still call you “Andy” when the whole world calls you “Andrew”? Moreover, why do you tolerate it? -Chris

Why should we continue spending on national defense?

I got an email from my USAF (US Air Force) buddy the other day. The email was a hilarious little jaunt down futility lane regarding the removal of Quicktime from all USAF computers. Apparently there are vulnerabilities in Quicktime that the USAF feels are too dangerous to have running. In the meantime, one can safely…

TADA!!!!

As you should have noticed by now, I have overhauled the old blog. In an effort to drive my attention towards this silly thing, I upgraded it to the latest offering by WordPress. WordPress is the blogging software that I use and I really like it. The issue with upgrading was all the custom work…

This post is classified … ]] SECRET [[

… and you can be too! That’s correct, Andy recevied his shirt and it looks great. So, without further ado, here is a link to my store. It will be on the right as well. Here’s a sample Ringer T, both front and back. Click for a better look. The logo is an “actual” government…

Coming soon…

Well, I have a custom designed T-Shirt en route to Andy. He’s going to give me the lowdown on the look/feel of the shirt to be sure that it is of high quality, and also looks sharp. If all bodes well, I will have a link to the cafepress store that has the products for…

Family Crests Rule!

Mark put me onto this great site for finding your family crest. You can check out the site here. Anyway, here’s the Heacock family crest: Click for a larger version… It’s pretty good. Naturally, I then thought, how dumb can could a crest get? I mean, there must be some crests that are just plain…

Meme tagged . . . I know . . . wtf

Doug tagged me to do this, and it’s not too long, so I will. But I don’t like it… Go to his site to read about this Meme business…. 1. Estimate the total number of books you’ve owned in your life. Not sure, but I’ll take a stab at … oh … 752. 2. What’s…
