My weekend is off to a bad start. I'm bummed. You already saw that I made a website for my photography to help take my work up a notch. Well I decided to covertly do the next best thing ... apply to be in an art show.Not just any art...
So the wife and I have decided to move. After 6 glorious years in our condo, which saw us gain a dog, a proposal (and acceptance), some new furniture and a sweet TV, it's just time for a bigger space. Kelly and Dboy think its because we're suddenly going to...
Nothing long or poetic here. Just a note saying that it's Earth Day and that is not being lost on me. I try and fill this space with useful tips and projects that I am doing (and forcing my mom to do) to make a difference. Even the small stuff...
I don't watch the Sunday morning talk shows. It's just too much. Even for a DC-resident. I can't handle it. I just want to break things the times I have watched them. Political affiliation aside, I can't stand any of it.But that won't stop me from pointing out clips like...
Theresa held a nice little gathering Saturday to celebrate the return of Mg & Emily to DC. They were some of the first friends I made here in the big city and when they decided to move back to their native Ohio to raise their kids and start a kingdom...
Everyone who knows me knows I love two sports very, very much. Soccer and golf. UK basketball is in an elite status all by itself so that doesn't count. The guys who play golf with me also know that I jokingly act like I have every shot possible out on...
First taking photos was something I wanted to do because my buddy Bill is really good at it and I was jealous. I knew I could never get as good as him, but I thought I had a chance to put some decent stuff on film.I bought a Nikon N90s...
Can't help but a trailer for a movie I am looking forward to. The new movie from Mike Judge is called Extract. Stupid title, but funny trailer with potential. Frankly the guy hasn't missed since coming out of the gate with Beavis and Butthead and then the immortal Office Space....
I kept trying to deny it, but they are here.The vacant, wandering eyes. The confused faces at street corners. The standing to the left on the escalators. The illegal parking. The picture-taking at the dumbest possible places and times.The inability to walk.The fannypacks.That is right, people, the effing tourists are...
OK, this was funny, even if between me and the wife. So watch this commercial, but PAUSE it 27 seconds in, don't go any further:When the wife and I watched it this morning, she went on and on the entire commercial about how much she wanted to go to Maine....
Months ago I gave myself a challenge: Collect all the recyclable paper I received and weigh it to determine how much of an impact my paper consumption was affecting the environment. That makes it sound like a daunting task, but it's not considering I can't really scientifically say how my...
OK, so I'm unnecessarily putting my mom on the spot again. Months after calling her out for failing to put eco-preferred lightbulbs throughout my childhood home, I'm out for blood again.You see, when I was a kid I thought Goofy cartoons were great. Mr. Wheeler made me yearn for my...
