Something a little different today.

Randy Pausch died this morning. Maybe you don’t know who that is - I didn’t. But I’d heard of the last lecture series, and of his Last Lecture talk and book. Basically, The Last Lecture was given by people who imagined that this would be the last talk they ever gave, and what sort of […]
July around here has been pretty quiet. Damn quiet. I don’t have much to write about of late. Still single with not much going on in that front - though not for lack of trying. Still doing the same old stuff at work. About the only interesting thing is trying to learn CakePHP. MySQL has […]
So the British Open - excuse me, The Open Championship - is happening right now. It’s Tiger-free, which I’m sure most players are glad for. However, it may not have mattered, the weather conditions are positively brutal. Royal Birkdale - the course - isn’t considered a difficult one (compared to some on the British Open […]
At least, according to a list I came across today. It’s not the worst list in the world - but of course I do have a couple complaints.

Everyone’s favorite religious wacko, James Dobson, has pretty much invalidated many of his own moral arguments. And it seems he’s too short-sighted to even realize it.
It seems that Mr. Dobson has taken umbrage with some comments made in a speech by Barack Obama. He went on his radio show and did his best to tear […]
So yeah, true to form and what should have been totally obvious to me from the start - I should not have scheduled the MySQL Developer I exam for Friday the goddamn thirteenth. The first omen was when they called me earlier in the week to tell me that my testing center no longer existed, […]
So last night, for just about the first time since I snapped my ankle, I went and did something severely athletic. I dug out my knee and ankle braces, got some basketball shoes and went to play broomball. I hurt in all kinds of ways now.
I am so out of shape, I couldn’t play offense […]
