My apartment complex has a disc golf course next to it. Who knew? I'm gonna go try it out.

So, who else still reads this rag?

Looking for advice [Dec. 16th, 2009|09:11 am]
So, my sister just got... elected? chosen? railroaded? Whatever, she's now captain of her derby team. Any suggestions on coaching-type books that I might get her for Christmas?

Thanks :)

And it's over... [Sep. 22nd, 2009|11:15 am]

Right now, I'm finishing up the last of the quality control checks; in a couple of hours (at most), I'll be done, and the project will be officially over. Kind of sad, really.

Oh well, onward and upward, right?

Dumb with a side of crazy... [Sep. 17th, 2009|11:26 am]
[mood |pissed offfrothing]

Back in July, a Major in the US Army Reserve sued to block his orders that would send him to Afganistan, on the basis that they were invalid because Barack Obama, not being a natural born citizen, was ineligible to be President and Commander-in-Chief. The Army recinded the orders, and the Birthers rejoiced; finally, the government admits it! Of course, it was a matter of nanoseconds before the Army press release clarified that Major Cook had volunteered to go to Afganistan, and the orders had been recinded because a volunteer can withdraw his... volunteer-ness?... at any time before deployment.

In August, Major Cook's lawyer, the unfortunately named Orly Taitz (dentist-lawyer-realtor to the stars!) released the President's "real" birth certificate, which was quickly shot down as a fake. Undeterred (and without learning from her mistakes), she tried it again in September, with the same results.

So what happens now? Does she slink off into some corner to baste in her own crazy? Of course not. She keeps filing cases! And when they get thrown out as frivolous (and with a reprimand and warning about sanctions if she keeps it up), she perfectly understandably compares herself to Nelson Mandela and calls for the judge to be tried for treason.

Thank you for being such a positive reflection on my profession.

From Huff. Tim, did you write this? I swear I've heard it from you before :)

To 4 c. chicken broth, add 3 red potatoes (cubed), zest and juice of 1 lemon, 4 cloves garlic (chopped), rosemary and sage to taste (generally 1/4 - 1/2 tsp each). Bring to boil, then reduce to simmer. Cube 2 chicken breasts, add to broth with 1/2# orzo. Simmer 8-10 minutes, until chicken is cooked through and orzo is soft. Makes approx 4 servings.

Huh... [Aug. 14th, 2009|08:35 am]
I'm listening to a news story about Bugzilla on NPR (rather, the May Historical Museum). I think they'll replay at 10am during Colorado Matters (90.1 FM) if anyone's interested.

Tomorrow will be my first "normal" day of work this week:

Monday - Thought I had work, came in, found out I did not.
Tuesday - Slept late, missed the call saying there was work, but got the call for the second phase. Had to skip out on lunch with Meddy to get to south of the Tech Center; was there until 9:30pm :(
Wednesday - Spent 10 hours in a basement on the very southern edge of the Denver Metro.
Today - Didn't know if there was work, sent an email at 7:30, got the reply at 8:30, in by 9:30. Want to stay until about 6-ish to round out my schedule, but can do some of this from home so may exercise that option.
Tomorrow - Who knows? Probably in by 8, out by 5.

The oak stands strong, even though the storm batters it.

This storm is bad, but the oak did not break, and I am thankful with all my heart.

On a more serious note, Kate and I need some help moving this weekend. We provide beer and food, you provide a minimal amount of labor. We're moving furniture on Sunday, 11am at Kate's (or 9am at my place if you want to be so kind). Give me a call if you need directions. Thank you!

Say it ain't so, Cap'n.... [Jun. 5th, 2009|08:05 am]

Say it ain't so.

Could it be that such an icon of integrity as Cap'n Crunch has been deceiving his customers?

No, as it turns out :)

Update on my sister's crazy neighbor [Apr. 5th, 2009|09:43 am]
Bond set at $50,000. However, since he's a parole violater, he's being held for that, too, and not getting out.

Whew.
