I spend way too much time trying to settle on a MP3 player on my computer. Though, due to us owning two iPods and two iPhones, iTunes is never far away, I am always trying to settle on some other program for just plain playing music. Even now, what with our AppleTv2 I am still…Read more
Those halcyon days of yore…
Finally, you can all relax… It is time for the long awaited follow-up to my Freaky Freaks post of a year and a half ago (here)! This was actually brought on though by the news at they.mislead.us that this is Play A New RPG Month! And, yes, this topic is actually something that I do…Read more
Pry it from my cold, dead hands… AKA, Rest in peace
Ah, well. Though it has been long expected, I still feel a bit stunned about the passing of Steve Jobs. I have watched quite a bit of “American Morning” this day and have been taking in the coverage of Steve’s passing. This mass popular recognition of Jobs, while profoundly deserved, is (lamely) somewhat irritating to…Read more

Though, aside from two brief school related visits to the Grad School, I had only made it to Brattleboro once before… Six years ago. I have, since that visit, thought of Brattleboro as the place to go to shop for records… At least in the 2+ years I have lived in Vermont… So going down…Read more
Here’s a thought…
Let’s abandon all of these facebook, myspace,flickr, picasa, creepster(?) Google+ sites! Those sites that are set up as “free”, so that they can just get you to sell yourself off. You know, the same way that broadcast television used to be free. Ever wonder why industries that give away their products for free could make…Read more
Endlessly intriguing.
One thing that I must say that I like about Vermont (aside from the lack of roadside advertising, which is reason enough to live here), is the crazy notion of the New England town. When I first met my wife, it took me months (literally) to really get my head around how completely different things…Read more
Hot and Nasty…
Not that I think much of being a coffee consumer, I must admit that I am one. Though my scope is generally limited to the free coffee at work and French-pressed Chock Full O’ Nuts during the weekend at home… I do still have my standards. I am, after all, at work where the general…Read more
Now here we go! 30 Days, 30 Songs: day three
Day 3: A song that makes you happy The most obvious choice here has to be Boston with Peace of Mind! Though I can’t help but think of the late, great Brad Delp whenever I hear them now, their whole first album has always worked to perk me up… But especially Peace of Mind.
Um, yeah… No. 30 Days, 30 Songs: day two
Sort of. Okay, I totally spaced this out yesterday… So maybe I’m not off to the best start… And then I have to go and get all serious and down with this entry. I don’t mean to, you know… But I just have to in this case… Day 2: Least Favorite Song. Firstly, let me…Read more
Excuses, excuses. aka… 30 days, 30 songs: day one
This is all a ridiculous idea. Firstly I don’t much like the questions and, secondly, picking just one song for each of these will be trying… But, here goes! For those that don’t recall, this is my stab at the Facebook 30 Days 30 Songs Challenge. Day 1: Favorite Song. Currently my favorite song is…Read more
