I just get back from the biggest blizzard in recent history, and still there’s more snow to greet me here in Colorado.  I just got done driving in what I can only describe as a Hell scenario… snow was coming down hard, winds blowing, low to no visibility… and I’m trying to drive down US […]

It’s Super Bowl Sunday, just about the only day of the year when I watch football.  So far the game has been pretty good (it’s 21-17 Green Bay at the moment) but the halftime show was appallingly bad.  Slash must have squandered all of his money, because he showed up to play with the Black […]

Last night I was up late working on some site revisions for my cousin’s business… it was one of those start after karate, blink and all of a sudden it is 4 am.  The changes came out great, and I’m glad to get one of my extra tasks checked off the “To Do” list.  That […]

Tonight was a great workout, we started out with some basic punch/kick combinations to get warmed up, focusing for a brief bit on side snap kick.  After that, we moved on to partner training with the attacking side doing reverse punch, jab, then stepping out with the front leg and doing a backfist strike at […]

Today was the definition of a snow day. Despite all this, I was able to remain productive by working remotely and tonight has been a very quiet evening of TV and cooking. So far my flight is still on tomorrow, so it is back to CO for me!

We wrapped up our workshop today, right before the snowstorm set in. The ride that normally took 20 minutes took almost an hour, and I had a few dial-in meetings to attend before my workday was complete. Now I am debating whether to brave the storm to visit with my cousins. They have a big […]

I made it to Peoria safely enough last night, but I was quickly warned that there was a giant snow creature of epic proportions descending upon 29 states.  It’s icy breath is set to lay waste to the entire Illinois River Valley, depositing 10 – 20 inches of snow. The roads weren’t bad on the […]

Yesterday, after Kangeiko I noticed that my car was sitting at 99,999 miles right as I pulled into my buddy Paul’s driveway to drop him off.  A few blocks later, my car hit the 100,000 milestone (on Oak Street, if you must know).  My Saturn has been very reliable to me since I bought it […]
