Happy First Day of April To You
You all know what that means… For those of you that missed out, I got some people all in a huff when I played boy-who-cried-“Hackers!”. (I think Anil’s post probably applies in this situation.) But I wish to argue that it was, rather, an exercise in the beauty and power of CSS. With a simple... Read More

The Boy & The Girl: The Abridged Edition
Speaking of birthdays… When Jessica and I got engaged, I wrote a rather lengthy, sentimental account of our story up to that point entitled The Boy & The Girl. Well, there’s nothing overly nostalgic about a 24th birthday or the two-year, five-month and three week anniversary of our wedding; so I decided to celebrate Jessica’s... Read More

So I go out to the garage today only to find Flat Stanley had been playing around the riding mower again (despite my warnings to the contrary). I’m not quite sure how he managed to turn the tractor on, engage the mower and still fall underneath; but there he was, right where the mower spat... Read More

Show me the man that says life is boring, and I’ll throw him in a vat of sugar-free pudding with Bill Cosby. How many silly, ridiculous things happen in life that get overlooked? Well, by golly, I’m going to write some of them down, so when I’m old, crochety, and can’t find my teeth, my... Read More

This is way too much fun to pass up.

File this in the “wish-I’d-thought-of-this” category. Coudal Partners came up with a great game. Mash up band names in with classic books. The results are hilarious. Some of my faves: Motley Crüsoe; Nickolas Nickelback; Green Day and Ham; The Faerie Queensryche; Rabbit, Run D-M-C; Chicken Soup for the Soul Asylum; Little Richard III; Megadeth of... Read More

Alright, so I may be the only one laughing here, but I’m telling you, 90% of these are true. Just ask my wife when I go off on some diatribe about font selection at the mall… (Got this from crestock.com, I added #19) 1. You giggle whenever you use the colors F0CCED, EFF0FF and 44DDDD... Read More

All this Heroes excitement (how about last night’s episode, whew!) had me jonesing to discover my hidden powers. This morning, it was all revealed to me in a supernatural event. I’d just finished a bowl of Peanut Butter Chocolate Cap’n Crunch when the phone rang. I set my bowl down on the floor and swung... Read More

I just performed my first two baptisms these past two weekends in church, but I must not be cut out for it. The first baptism, I forgot to wear short sleeves so my dress shirt got drenched. Fortunately, I wave my arm alot when I lead singing. I was also advised afterwards that pinching someones... Read More

Have We Got a (Slide)Show for You…
The cool temperatures got us itching to hack up a pumpkin, so on the way home from work today Jess picked out the sorry squash. She did the dirty work (gutting) and I did the fun stuff (face design). Don’t laugh. I’m a designer. I always draft before starting. Then comes the sketch. Our happy... Read More
