How shall I describe yesterday? I like to keep this blog family friendly so I’m sure that most readers will understand my meaning when I just call it a “Rolling and Screaming Charlie-Foxtrot”. The details of this adventure is something that my wife will no doubt do a much better job of writing about than I can. What I want to focus on here is the cherry on top of that “wonderful” day.

Commenting Etiquette

August 12th, 2008

I don’t quite know entirely why, all those things my mother told me not to do I suppose, I still find myself surprised at the way some people choose to treat their hosts. It shouldn’t be a surprise that this growing level of rudeness extends to the online world.

Downtime In The Hospital

August 5th, 2008

Regular readers will note that there’s a gap of several days from the end of last week to the beginning of this week where there was no posting. Just this last weekend my wife had to be hospitalized because of a Brown Recluse Spider bite. Naturally, since I am not a hamster, I went along with her both to keep her company and help out in whatever way I could.
