I've always been quite fond of Chuck Lorre vanity cards following shows like The Big Bang Theory and Two and a Half Men. This, of many, is another reason why I find Chuck's ability to entertain yet still comment on todays world unbelievable:
I believe that inherent within the God-given right to the pursuit of happiness, is the equally God-given ( Read more... )

I planned on updating yesterday but ran into a snagmy boss invited me to a conference call at 8pm. Trust me this wasnt planned and when we were all done, about three hours later, I only wanted to watch Hellboy II with Tyler and go to bed. We finished the movie at 1am, he went to bed, and then I dragged myself to bed at 2:30. Earlier Saturday I ( Read more... )

Over twenty-four hours and were all still alive, I keep reminding myself. Jessicas been in San Francisco and the children havent walked over me yet, and shockingly, theyre still alive too! Tyler and Kylea are excellent help. Ayden and Rylin are behaving, listening, and doing their best at complicating the established routine but are still wonderful ( Read more... )

Ive been home a little over a week and its been enjoyable. The family was happy to see me as were the dogs. It took a few days to get re-acclimated to Colorado weather and the lack of humidity, the somewhat warm days and the ice-cold nights, but Im back and I love every minute of it. There was talk of a passing snow, it finally happened Friday ( Read more... )

I am ready to leave Southern California. I spent the past forty minutes packing my suitcase, getting my laptop bag squared away, the BlackBerry charged, and my reading material and iPod placed in the correct laptop bag locations.

I told myself a little over two weeks ago that I wouldnt write another entry until I got through last weeks work overload and this weeks trip to sunny, hot, and fire-stricken Southern California. Apparently, something piqued my interest and forced me to write this else Id be tossing and turning in bed or reading a good book while I try to get ( Read more... )

The day is finally here, November 4, 2008Election Day! With the 2000 Supreme Court victory of George W. Bush following the Florida election recounts, the 2004 failed bid by John Kerry to secure the White House, eight years of progressive decline to our economy, becoming the worlds laughing-stock with our presidential ineptness, our misguided War on ( Read more... )

I found this on the internet and thought it was a perfect Letter of Secession in the event it goes McCain instead of Obama...
Dear Red States ( Read more... )

I keep promising myself that Ill write daily but thats simply not happening. When I get home from work I just want to vegetate on the couch, watch television, or play on the internet, writing isnt part of the equation. I spend three-quarters of the work day writing e-mail, scripts, and debugging code while the remaining quarter is spent performing ( Read more... )

Ive been missing. Does this sound all too familiar? With the financial crisis and the upcoming election, I think the world is writing less while focusing their day to day activities on more relevant and important tasks. I, on the other hand, have been focusing on typing with nine fingers instead of ten, watching the debates, working, and being a ( Read more... )
