So this is roughly what I look like right now (sans the hat)
And I’ve got about four months to get my fat ass in gear and ready for the marathon season in January. I started somewhat paced running yesterday which went quite well, but today I added some weightlifting to the combination and I guess took it […]

Inappropriate title, sure, but I assure you there is nothing inappropriate about this post.
Mentally, physically.. emotionally.. I am in the same state I was back in 2002 when I started cranking out huge chunks of code like a madman. It’s sad to admit that most of that code is still on active duty, but..
I haven’t […]

This is slightly interesting, esp given the last rant about social networks being a virtual prostitution ring. Today I logged in and saw this ad (who am I kidding, I saw the girl and figured there was no way she was my friend) and this ad:
Make $250+ Working Only 45 Min./Day!!!!
Oh really? Let me guess […]

I’ve posted the collected pictures from the Microsoft World Wide Partner Conference 2007 pictures. Almost all (with the exception of ones featuring myself) are appropriate, have stripped the embarrasing stuff.

Enjoy. If you would like a copy of the movies/videos you were in drop me an email, those are a little bit too personal to put […]

So, here are some awful things I heard this weekend.
First one is from my Polycom:
You have 281 messages and 17 marked urgent. 109 calls to return on Monday.
Second one is from Robert Schimmel:
Wife: Wouldn’t you hate it if I kept on going after you came!
Robert: No. No. No… Let me put it to you this way, I wouldn’t […]

It seems that every six months or so all of my 2.5 friends engage in a massive human migration to another network. From Friendster (remember that one?) to MySpace to Twitter to Facebook to Pownce to (something next) each network becomes a little better at eliminating the spambuddies from asking to be friends. I’ve made […]

So this one came off of Vladville, mostly from my friends. No, I did not turn fruity since I liked the iPhone, I’m as far removed from an artist as possible.
So whats the big idea? Well, there are several reasons:
My nose looks big, I’m too fat, take another, take another, take another.
I can’t believe […]

As I sat through my three hour delay at LAX, I pondered the second biggest sales pitch of my life: How do I get Katie to move out to LA. I am not sure I will ever be able to close that deal but I have to say I absolutely love that non-descript sense of […]

Today I experienced the best of times, the worst of times and a whole new appreciation for metropolitan environment.
Today I experienced poverty in a whole new way. I never have cash. Ever. I never use an ATM. These ghetto birds do it all in cash. My wallet consists of expired ATM cards and bank cards […]
