The workout last night was one of the most eye-opening experiences I’ve had in a long time. McCabe said it best when he said that it’s like learning the katas all over again. We’re beginning to work through much of the content of Sensei Hartman’s thesis, and let me tell you… it is pretty amazing […]

Karate last night was great as always. The first class consisted of a ton of kata for the lower ranks, the black belts got to help correct. I am both amazed at our lower ranks and underwhelmed all at the same time. There are the shining examples ( and ) and then there’s the not-so-shining […]

Last night and I discussed the initial plans to begin ressurrecting a very old friend of our nerding past. I won’t speak to any more specifics, but I am very eager to see this idea return to reality as it was one of my favorite pasttimes when I was first getting into computing. The initial […]

w00t, I finally got the few minutes free and at my computer to fix the PHP includes that were causing my site to not have a header or navigation. My host changed my server again but luckily they decided to finally post the system path to Perl, the www directory, and the sendmail program on […]

Let me encapsulate… see Hugh Grant in an unlikely role as Prime Minister of England. Cram in Alan Rickman, Shannon Elizabeth, Colin Firth, Liam Neeson, and about a thousand other mid-range stars as well as some English girls that like to take off their shirts and that about rounds out the cast. The story revolved […]
