An email from a friend.
Ok this is kind of silly. A friend and I entered this tshirt design contest, and one of our entries was selected as a finalist. The winner is based on votes by readers, so if you have a second, please cast a vote for me.

Fat Pancake Birthdays

Wednesday, March 1st, 2006

Yesterday was National Pancake Day, and Fat Tuesday and the best thing I could come up with for my birthday post was that I was born on the same day as the guy who does the voiceover work for a cartoon Parrot… geez.

Happy Birthday to…

Gavin MacLeod, Gilbert Gottfried, this guy and myself.
Cheers.

This site ain’t called “spaz” for nothing.

Judging by the “Welcome Digg and del.icio.us Visitors!” this has already made the rounds. But, a guy with ADHD, who works in “high tech” and has “spaz” right in the name of his blog, needs to blog this story. Top 10 Advantages of ADD in a High Tech Career is a well written post […]

Getting it done with Helper Monkeys

Thursday, February 9th, 2006

Eli points out over at his blog that you can get yourself your very own helper monkey, and the video of little Gizmo is very funny moving funny.
But, could Gizmo display the sort of mad Broomball skills needed to advance to the finals! I don’t know if “Gizmo Boards” is even in the little guys […]

Simplification, one layer at a time.

Thursday, December 29th, 2005

Recently there has been a discussion on the topic of “stuff not making you happy” which is a subject I’ve come to whole hardily agree with. I’ve recently been faced with the amount of stuff I currently own when I moved from a 1400 sq house in Minneapolis to a 725 sq apartment in Toronto. […]

Election Fun

Sunday, December 18th, 2005

As an American in living in Canada, I’m unfortunately not qualified to take part in the upcoming election. As an American most of the world would probably say I’m not qualified to take part in an American election either, but that’s a whole ‘nother story.
Maybe this is how I should get involved. Wheeeee….

I used google.com for the first time!

Wednesday, September 28th, 2005

For years, I’ve been a regular user of yahoo.com, not for search but as a baseline when testing an Internet connection as in “ping yahoo.com”. I’ve never used Yahoo as a search engine in my life, but never-the-less “Yahoo” represented “Internet” when I would ping to test a signal.
Today after reworking some cables behind my […]

On the cusp of change.

Friday, July 15th, 2005

The move my wife and I are planning to Toronto has forced me to reflect on the friends I’ll leave behind, but also those that I have left behind in the past. 10 years ago I had begun to establish business relationships in the Detroit area film/video industry, and at that time I was too […]

In Memory of Clyde, 09/96 - 07/05

Sunday, July 10th, 2005

Yesterday, my wife and I had to put to rest our beloved pet rabbit Clyde. He had been with us for nine years, and parting with him was very difficult. As a tribute I’ve decided to resurrect an old website that was built for Clyde, and our first pet rabbit, Bunny.
