We survived “winter blast” (as it was dubbed), but we didn’t fare too well.
Friday, the 40-80 mph winds started and we lost power around 8AM. I left the house around 7:15 to take Alex to daycare and feed/let out a friend’s dogs. By the time I got home at 8, the power was out and […]

I need to get a new ISP. I am not thrilled with the one I have but the house I live in is so old (think 1950’s) that I am not sure if fiber cable has been laid in the area to support the provider I want to switch to. This is definitely […]

One of the guys at work is an intern and well, being a full time student most of the time and taking a semester off to work has left him pretty poor. We were talking and I guess his apartment is typical college guy type thing. You know the place, remnant furniture, pizzas […]

Wine has a huge part of history. It was turned into water by Jesus, it was a a source of commerce (and later, politics) in many of the European countries. Its at old as time and revered by many.

We got up from a nap to the doorbell ringing. Apparently my neighbor got robbed last night. He came home from an evening out to find all his electronics, games, his kids games, just everything worth anything gone. The back of his house faces mine with a 20 foot greenbelt between us. […]
