Gmail
Saturday, June 19th, 2004

I got a coveted Gmail account a week or so ago and have since sent all of my old email to the account, and forwarded all of my old addresses to my Gmail address and have been using it as my primary email account.

As you may have read elsewhere, it really is by far the […]

Clothes folding for Ninjas

Learn to fold your shirts like a ninja!

This video will teach you the Japanese method of folding t-shirts, which is of course 3 times as fast as the way I, being an American, have always done it. But now we know their secret!

Watch the video (links directly to a Windows Media Video file)

Not dead, just busy
Tuesday, May 4th, 2004

If anyone still happens to read my site, I’m not dead, I’ve just been really really busy. I have a day job, as well as freelance web design on the side, which is the part that’s keeping me really busy, as well as a wife, dogs, and other interests and responsibilities,. I’ll show everyone what […]

Page 23
Thursday, April 15th, 2004

I don’t wanna be left out, so, I first saw this on Keith’s site.

Grab the nearest book.
Open the book to page 23.
Find the fifth sentence.
Post the text of the sentence in your journal along with these instructions.

“The answer is threefold.”

A bit anti-climactic, eh? The quote is from Flatland a book written in the late 1800’s […]

Worst DVD Cover Art Ever
Tuesday, April 6th, 2004

Seriously now. What is up with this cover art? It looks like it was made by a 13 year old as their first project in Photoshop. Did the designers just get tired of making Matrix DVD covers after the second one, so they decided to throw a couple of frames from the movie on there […]

Honda Element: The first 3,500 Miles
Wednesday, March 24th, 2004

We’ve put about 3,500 miles on our new Honda Element, and I thought I’d post my impressions of it so far.

Exterior
We chose the black one (as pictured above) because we thought it blended in with the gray body panels the best. The silver and orange/red ones look kind of “patchy” like they were pieced together […]

Cheap Dog Treat Idea
Sunday, February 29th, 2004

Dog treat prices can get pretty crazy, depending on where and what you buy. They have the ones that look like bacon, the ones that look like two tubes twisted together, the ones that look like steak chunks, etc. You’re likely to pay $2 – $4 per bag, just for the cheap stuff. That can […]

Random iPod Playlist
Thursday, February 19th, 2004

This has been going around on a few blogs lately (I found it via Blue Plaid Shirt)… You put your iPod on Shuffle (I always do anyway) then make a list of the first 15 songs, no matter how embarrassing! I don’t think much of my music is that embarrassing, but we’ll see what happens….

1. […]

Stock Photography sites
Wednesday, January 21st, 2004

Found a couple of good stock photography sites recently…

MarineStock focuses on marine related photos, and is coming along nicely. It just recently launched, so it doesn’t have a huge collection yet, but there are quite a few good ones there like this one that my dad took. Here are other photos he has submitted from […]
