There’s nothing I love more than wandering around doing daily tasks when something suddenly strikes me as so strange or odd that I have to stop and look… and hopefully get a laugh out of it too. For instance, I was walking around Target one day and I had just finished up a conversation about […]

I never understood spring cleaning. Well, I mean, I know it came about because back in the 12th century when people didn’t have fiberglass insulation, they made their homes/huts/whatever about as air tight as possible to keep the heat in during the winter months. Of course, this lead to a build up of dust and […]

Remember kids: This post is probably going to get my blog censored in a certain very large Asian nation, but I thought it was quite interesting to see all the political commentary buzzing around the internet in editorial style cartoon format. Even though this was one of the most protested Olympic games since Berlin 1936, […]

I’ve not been serious about my photography hobby for quite some time, but since I bought my first digital camera back in 1992 (Sony DSC-1 640×480 or 0.3 megapixel max resolution), I’ve taken over 25,000 photos, 5000 or so that have been taken “recently” which still need to be named and sorted. I started sorting […]

How ironic and appropriate that the name for this Microsoft powered wrist watch included the word Fossil… it was almost like they knew how obsolete the first version would become in such short order. I picked up this watch for free because someone was tossing it out. It worked well enough, but since I don’t […]

I was pretty much a one man show, so developing new messaging platform features, marketing the service, managing accounts with content partners, etc. were all part of the collection of hats I wore.

When I was a young teen, I remember going to my first and only estate sale. It was such an odd feeling trudging around some dead dude’s garage, looking at his tools and things. Even now I think how strange it would be if, the week after I kicked off, there would be strangers pilfering […]

This writing is a bit late of course, but my last day in Spain was quite a memorable one. One thing I saw in Spain that I remember from my childhood is cigarette machines. They used to be everywhere, then suddenly they disappeared. Obviously the issue was that an unmonitored vending machine would not be […]

Everyone knows that flying from just about anywhere in the US to just about anywhere in Europe is a painful event. I think that is sufficient to sum up my experience in the air, however I did take a kind of cool moto (mobile phone photo… roll with me on this, I’m trying to create […]

Everyone knows that travel gives you a broader sense of “the world”, and ultimately redefines the reality of your personal universe. Everyone’s personal universe is different. It is your concept of “the world” at any given time, and it can expand beyond the realms of our galaxy or in an instant it can contract down […]
