- Hello, Moto!
I’ve always been a fan of Motorola’s RAZR campaign. The “Hello, Moto” line is hillarious. I find myself saying it whenever I’m feeling silly. It’s not so much the contents of the sentence, but the way it’s said - a youthful, synthetic voice with an air of mischievousness in it. And shortening the Motorola name [...]

I don’t intend on getting into what it means to be “Made in America” as there are countless arguments and nuances in every position, however I heard something I thought was funny today while sitting in the service lobby at the Nissan dealership while waiting for my car to be repaired: “About the only thing that [...]

Don’t send a lame Holiday eCard. Try JibJab Sendables!
Thu, 13 Dec 2007 23:10:07 -0600 - I’ve been Googled
I’ve officially been Googled and I couldn’t be more ecstatic! Google Maps has released the Minneapolis area of their Street View functionality. I had noticed a car this summer as it approached me while stopped at a traffic light near my home. It had a funny contraption atop it. I remember at the time [...]
Tue, 11 Dec 2007 09:30:50 -0600 - Home Office is the new Homo Operandi
… at least this Homo’s operandi. I’ve lived in a two bedroom condo alone for the last nine months. Initially I had turned the second bedroom into an exercise area. I went out and bought a free weight set, an adjustable bench, and covered the floor with those interlocking gym mats. In those nine months I’ve [...]
Mon, 01 Oct 2007 21:43:35 -0500 - The Bad Waitress and me
Broke my usual habit of going to Vera’s this evening to stop in at The Bad Waitress. I like it here. Good, cheap food. Jukebox. dimly lit. Free wireless. No-nonsense staff, who, despite the name, are actually pretty cool. I stole the image off their website. Nobody sue me, please. There are young, just-turned 21 MCAD [...]
Wed, 26 Sep 2007 21:26:53 -0500 - Computer Crash Hysteria
You’d think I would have learned my lesson after the last time my computer went kaput. In fact, I had. I setup a nightly syncing mechanism that would copy everything onto another drive on my home network. Then I started a sober house and the extra computer, and the hard drive space it included, went [...]

Following up on a post from a couple of weeks ago about a potential fifth sponsee … After skipping out on our initial meeting at Vera’s I never saw or heard from him again. I’d actually forgotten about it. After all, people had asked me to sponsor them in the past and done nothing further. Unfortunately, [...]

My friend Mark took this photo of Lake Calhoun after getting out of a meditation meeting at the Minnesota Zen Center. The photo was taken using his iPhone, so the resolution isn’t of superb quality, but the end result is beautiful nonetheless.
Sun, 09 Sep 2007 01:52:40 -0500 - I-35W Bridge Collapse
On Labor Day I rode down to the bridge site with my friend Jason. I had made the trip once before, the weekend after the collapse, but at that time my camera’s batteries were dead and they weren’t allowing anyone close enough to see anything. This turned out to be the weekend they opened the 10th [...]
