Hardly Fame (Yet)

In case you were won­der­ing, I’m the 265th Jason on Google, as of today. Also, in case you were fur­ther won­der­ing, I am prone to short fits of van­i­ty in between peri­ods of actu­al­ly hav­ing a life.

So, We’re Pregnant

About 7:00am on Sat­ur­day morn­ing (Nov. 16th), Angela ran into the bed­room, threw off the cov­ers, and yanked me by the arm. “Come here. You need to see this.” Of all the thoughts run­ning through my head (not that many, since I was still most­ly asleep), none of them had any­thing to do with fam­i­ly. I nat­u­ral­ly… Con­tin­ue read­ing So, We’re Pregnant

On Getting Things Done

I was prob­a­bly the sin­gle last per­son to get a copy of David Allen’s Get­ting Things Done: The Art of Stress-Free Pro­duc­tiv­i­ty. I had ordered a copy sim­ply because it did seem so pop­u­lar. I usu­al­ly steer clear of the self-help and busi­ness pro­duc­tiv­i­ty sec­tions of the book­store. How­ev­er, the peo­ple who were talk­ing about… Con­tin­ue read­ing On Get­ting Things Done

Global Warming: Don’t Blame The Aliens Mr. Crichton

I was recent­ly asked by a fel­low Newsvine user what my opin­ion was on a 2003 speech giv­en by author Michael Crich­ton (Juras­sic Park, The Androm­e­da Strain, State of Fear) at Cal. Tech. titled “Aliens Cause Glob­al Warm­ing.” I recalled the title and hav­ing read it some time ago, but went back to read it… Con­tin­ue read­ing Glob­al Warm­ing: Don’t Blame The Aliens Mr. Crichton

Wii Havin’ Fun Now

Okay, so we’ve had the Wii for a cou­ple of days and I’m final­ly try­ing to find some time to blog about it. I’ve real­ly just been being occu­pied with play­ing, but I’m going to say that I want­ed to Angela to have a chance to play some as well before I wrote much. I guess… Con­tin­ue read­ing Wii Havin’ Fun Now

Wii’re Crazy

I wait­ed in line overnight at the Cen­tral Rich­mond Tar­get for the launch of the Nin­ten­do Wii con­sole. It was loads of fun, and the Wii is even bet­ter. How­ev­er, I’m real­ly tired and need to eat and go to the office for a cou­ple of hours this after­noon. I’m also using the TS defense… Con­tin­ue read­ing Wii’re Crazy

Moving Pictures

I’m going to a post-marathon par­ty at some friends’ house tonight so we can all cel­e­brate not dying last Sat­ur­day morn­ing. Angela took some great pho­tos of them, so I’ll Flickr ’em1 and have Tar­get print them for me. At ¢20 for a 4“x6” 2, com­bined with the fact that Tar­get is only about 3/4″… Con­tin­ue read­ing Mov­ing Pictures
