I added an album of photos (friends and family only) from The Boy’s soccer game today. He scored two goals. Once again, his team was much more aggressive than their opponents and even though they don’t keep score, they clearly won. He’s really enjoying it and so are we.
I hadn’t checked Baby Chaos in [...]

March Madness

No, not college basketball, my T.V. viewing schedule. There’s all kinds of things I should be doing other than watching T.V., but how can I not where there’s so much good stuff on?
It all starts March 3rd with Kingdom Hospital. The first time I saw the preview, I thought it looked an awful lot like [...]

Blogging can be a great source of amusement, just ask Senator Rick Santorum. I read about this a few weeks back, but ended up not posting about it. I reconsidered in light of post.
While on the topic of sanctimonious republicans, the rumor mill is going at full tilt about our governor. I wonder when [...]

This is an impressive demonstration of the power of CSS. One of my long list of projects "when I have free time" is to abandon all of the table-based layout that I’m familiar with and go whole hog with CSS. Of course, I didn’t try looking at the various designs in different browsers yet. [...]

Burnt Orange Report pointed me to an article in Time about Shrub’s time in Alabama (the much disputed missing National Guard service time) and they had a great idea. So, without further ado, Texas Souffle.

A rare occurrence

We don’t get much snow here in Austin, but we got a dusting last night. I took the pictures about 15 minutes ago. What little there is will be gone by 11 as it’s getting into the 50’s today and will be in the 70’s by the end of the week. The Boy has been [...]

There are a few from opening presents that morning, our breakfast trip to Krispy Kreme and then some from the Bob Bullock Museum where we had lunch and saw T-Rex 3D – Back to the Cretaceous.

Useless Beatle Trivia
≡ Category: Entertainment | ≅ Leave a Comment
For some reason, I was singing “When I’m sixty-four” in the shower this morning and realized that it probably won’t be long before one of the surviving Beatles reaches that age.
Turns out that Ringo will be first this summer and Paul will follow in 2006. John would’ve been in October and George, the youngest, would’ve [...]

C’mon people. It’s just a partially exposed breast. Do we really need to devote an entire Nightline episode to this? European people have been seeing at least that much skin on T.V. for years. You didn’t have any problem with the farting horse from Budweiser or this classic sentence courtesy of the Cialis commercial:
Although a [...]

What went wrong?

I’ve been seeing a lot of speculation about the apparent massive reversal in support from Howard Dean to John Kerry. This one (via Aprendiz de todo) is interesting, as is this one (via Weblogsky). While the first may seem a little overly paranoid and prone to conspiracy theory, I think there’s something there.
The first speaks [...]
