- Stars N’ Stripes.
A few weeks back I was down in San Diego spending the weekend with my family, it was a great time and we even got out on the bay for a Brunch cruise. Along the way I managed to snag the following image on my G9.

- Back To Reality.
Well with the end of Summer vacations comes the unsettling return to work. I love work, but you do get a bit used to not having to know what day it is, and not really caring what small California highway you are on, or if there are bears along the way. Of course I tore [...]

- So I’m Back.
I braved whitewater, and lot’s of 3-4 hour drives, and had an absolutely amazing time enjoying the outdoors of Central and Northern California, along with all the heat. I recommend everyone go to a park, or something, and just lie down and look up and enjoy life.

- U.S. Open Wrap-up.
I found it fitting not to publish this until the Open actually concluded, and seeing as Tiger just wrapped it up on the 19th hole today, this is long overdue:
I was able to spend Father’s Day with my very own Father at the U.S. Open. It was a great day of golf, on a gorgeous [...]Popularity: 77% [?]
- So This Is Twitter.
Okay, I know I should know this, I know I should be using it, and I know I should have been on this train like months ago. Regardless, Chad Pearson has convinced me to give it a go, and I am officially Twitter’ing.
For the record, I still have no idea what this all means.
Edit: I [...]Popularity: 97% [?]
- This Is A No Blog Weekend.
So I’m down in San Diego for the weekend; celebrating my Mother’s birthday (got her an easel, acrylics, watercolours and related supplies), spending time with the niece, moving furniture around, saboteur’ing with some friends. I haven’t been on the internet most of the weekend, and hardly have even seen my computer. So this is me [...]

- Run-On Wednesday.
Here is what I am doing with my life in complete random run-on sentence form for the people who care about what I am doing with my life.
I go shopping for yogurt and bread buy way too many things decide that I need to go green and buy reusable bags because they will fit more [...]Popularity: 96% [?]
- Life, As It Were.
A swirling mass of denim and associated items, digital cameras, way too many energy drinks, Rock Band injuries; that is my life as of late. It isn’t always the adventure it sounds like; which is more than it should be. For every moment when I realise I need time away from something, there is a [...]

- Archival.
Over the weekend I added some various, random, writings that span all the way back to 2002. For those of you not in the know, 2002 was when blogging was invented*, and I was right there changing the world.
If you peruse these archives, you will find; early morning drives, Cheetah conservation, vague reminiscing, 11 o’clock [...]Popularity: 75% [?]
- Certain Things.
There are certain things for me that will always; render a photographic image in my mind, create a yearning for particular things, begin a private screening of out takes of life events in moving picture form, trigger an onslaught of emotions past. For me these things are typical; for me these things are atypical. Songs, [...]

- Apple Users v. The World.
I’ve been an Apple user for 20+ years, dating back to a Christmas morning in the 80’s where we woke up to a green glow in the living room. It’s been a bumpy road for those years filled with family members becoming Windows users, Apple allowing clone Macs, the ongoing battle trying to convince everyone [...]

- Freedoms In Education.
I was always one of those people that went through our public eduction system “spitting and cursing”, so to speak. Granted I had my troubles behaving, and I was a class clown of sorts, but more than either of these I was a rabble-rouser. I very early on found myself wanting to challenge the system [...]

- The Fourth.
So the journalistic sub-genre of sports has been all a buzz this season about the San Diego Chargers Quarterback Philip Rivers. I am a proud supporter of “The Fourth” and of course am a huge Bolts fan, so it wouldn’t be shocking to learn that I sport the powder blue 17 on most Sunday’s. Granted [...]

- So This Is Christmas.
I am very late in wishing everyone a very happy “you and yours”. While we are here I might as well wish you a Happy New Year as well because I am bound to miss that one too.
I headed South to San Diego once again with a car full of luggage, presents and one Grandmother. [...]Popularity: 57% [?]
- Random Recommendations 11.22.07
So it has been a while since I have spewed out a list of what I am currently loving.
Maritime - The new album “Heresy and the Hotel Choir” is fabulous in a way that I really needed lately. Got me back into “We The Vehicles” as well, which is such an under-appreciated album.
Roomba - Yes [...]Popularity: 59% [?]
- California, and it being on fire.
So once again California is on fire.
Just on Saturday I was down in San Diego, remembering events from 4 years past (not the fires), and then suddenly Sunday events from 4 years past (the fires) were happening all over again.

- The Running Of The Ponies.
Hollywood Park opened for it’s spring meet a few weeks back, and Saturday I supported the just-outside-of-Hollywood-community Inglewood. I have no idea why it’s “Hollywood” Park, all of Hollywood waits for Del Mar.
There were a few wardrobe delays getting to the track, but once all was overcome an absolutely wonderful time was had on a [...]Popularity: 75% [?]
- Mountains of Green and Burnt (Childhood Dreams)
This Sunday I drove down to San Diego to thank my Mother for doing the following things in my life; birthing me, stopping my sister from feeding me scrambled eggs when I was only a few days old, killing the rooster that tried to make me blind, turning off “The Wizard of Oz” (on audio [...]

- Who Would Honestly Build A City In A Desert?
It’s all so surreal though, the situation, how we met. Every conversation we have there in my memory as if I only dreamed it. Maybe I am just piecing together all the great moments before the fall from all my past situations. It’s just a compilation, a really good compilation. So she calls, and she [...]
