Is there anyone that really likes going to the post office? I guess we all appreciate the ability to mail things personally, and as businesses we rely on them for most communication. It seems to be more of a can’t live with them, can’t live without them relationship. If there is anyone reading this site [...]

Most of my life I have had pretty decent handwriting. I am not talking about anything to win awards, but legible, even and pleasant writing. I never really took pride in it, but it was something I was conscious of. Recently I have noticed that my handwriting quality has digressed, quite a bit in fact. [...]

Depending on where you live, you might be laughing at the schmucks like me that live in cold weather country. I have a friend that lives in Florida, actually a few friends in Florida, but one in particular [...]

This weekend my wife and I went away with her sister and husband and we searched one evening for a hotel that had high speed internet. Normally it wouldn’t be a big deal but with a new project recently launched I wanted to be able to access any of my servers in case of a [...]

I am not one to pass along videos where people get hurt, but this one just made me laugh and cringe at the same time. This is one of those that fits it the “Darwin Award” type of category. His own stupidity caused the results. It is people doing things like this that give paintball [...]

Sorry, I just had to poke fun at New York with this recent news coverage. CNN is reporting “Mystery smell settles over Manhattan” due to a recent strong odor that they cannot find a source of. I spent most of my childhood and teenage years growing up in the great, wonderful state of Washington. The [...]
