Saw a very interesting Loop on FilmLoop tonight, and it turns out it led me to a more interesting project called Heaven, Earth, Tequila, and the website of the same name.

Change Management, or the Lack Thereof…

REALLY wishing I’d been keeping track of my WordPress mods as I made them.  WP 2.0 is available for download, and as I think through the upgrade process I’ve realized the error of my ways.  In short, as I’ve tested, tweaked my theme and added plugins, I’ve not tracked my changes.  So, at the moment I’m […]

Merry Christmas, Now Quit Driving Like a Moron…

I can’t believe that Christmas is barely over and we’re just sliding into the New Year’s Holiday, and so many drivers are already trying to kill either themselves or others.  Here are a couple of examples, just from today…

Merry Christmas, Big and Little…

Not sure how I missed it, but I wrote this a couple of weeks ago and only today, while preparing another post, did I realize I never posted it!
Today (10 December) was a great day – got to do something we did last year for work, which was deliver Santa Claus to the second annual […]

Like Bill Murray said in Caddyshack, "So I’ve got that goin’ for me".  I’ll let you know how that works out!

Elton John Has Crappy Taste in Christmas Music!

Welcome to El Salvador, Sort Of…

In Weird Day Part 1 I wrote about Elton John’s crappy Christmas CD.
Oddity number two started with lunch at a Salvadoran (although the sign said “Salvadorian”) restaurant.  Never seen or eaten in one of those before, but the place looked busy and clean, and I’m an adventurous eater so I figured “what the hell” (see, […]

“Is That Goat?”…

In Weird Day Part 2 I wrote about my awesome lunch at a Salvadoran restaurant.  The chorizo was the shining star of that lunch, and despite the language barrier with my server, I thought I’d try ask if was made on premises, or get the name of the vendor on the odd chance I might […]
