Well, that was quick…

The weekend was a blur, got a good amount of stuff done but it still seemed to go to quick. Did the quarter-round for the tile in the bathroom (will try to update a few pics this week in there), attached a steering wheel and telescope to Carson’s clubhouse, fixed a few of the gutter spouts, and took Carson to the neighborhood Easter egg hunt.

Story update: On the RIAA vs UNL story.

Haffey strikes again with his links! Photos of wrong place/wrong time situations, on the adult meter the worst is a far away shot of some dudes butt. Speaking of Haffey, check out his new bike… hot.

I got 4242 meters on the Monkey Kick Off! Woot!!!

This just in…

I’m back at work…

This day in history
The first working laser patented this day in 1960. Sometime later, Dr. Evil uses this invention in his evil plot.

My old employer tells the RIAA to pay them for wasting the University’s time… HA HA HA. Go UNL!!

Here’s a funny link that Haffey sent me yesterday… funny stuff said in court. In honor of Haffey providing me so much material, I’ve added a new label “Haffey’s Links”… in time I hope to go back through what I’ve already posted and add the label when necessary. This way you can target just the posts with “Links provided by Haffey”(tm).

IT’S A WOOT-OFF PEOPLE!!!!
GOGOGOGOGOGO!!!

What a laugh on this one!

Number sixty one…

So yea, creative juices not flowing in the title department… sorry.

Anyway, on with the stuffs! So, the Borat movie (which I haven’t seen) did something interesting with their DVD release and because of the humor involved here I might actually make the effort to watch it. In general though, I find that type of humor a bit outside of my tastes… we’ll see, maybe I’ll do a movie review on here.

Are you a Network Admin? Aspire to go into that field? Want to be as terrible as possible? Here are some great tips. I laughed quite a bit at this, thanks Haffey for the link.
Ever heard of Despair.com? You know those motivational posters in a lot of offices? Well this place makes the evil equivalent of that… and they are hilarious.

Another Haffey link!! Large denominations of US money… cool stuff and potential useless trivia tidbit.

LIFE CHANGING TIPS AND TRICKS!!!!
Holy crap! I just spilled an entire picture of iced tea into my laptop! Let the healing begin.

Football story time! Here’s the 2007 NFL Mock Draft, by Scouts, Inc. Story about the NFL Combine and it’s future in Indy.. little tidbits about the new stadium too.

Alright, I found a great list of spoilers.. from movies to tv to historical events. It is very funny.. and dang you Haffey for providing it too. GET BACK TO WORK!

I leave you with Rainn Wilson’s (Dwight) monologue from SNL… it was really good.

Weekend Visitors

Jenni’s parents spent the weekend with us… we had a great time.

Saturday was swimming class where Carson got to show off all he has learned so far. Then we had Red Lobster for lunch and my parents joined us for a great meal. Later we all just relaxed while some snow fell and watched movies.

Sunday we went to the Children’s Museum… which is where I finally got my camera out.

Glad we could have you out for a visit, Rich and Shirl! See you in April.

April 14th will be Carson’s birthday party… let me know if you are interested in attending and I’ll make sure you get an invitation.

My favorite day of the week

Fridays are good, most of the time. For me it’s normally a catch-up day… laid back mainly as well. Great all around.

Like puzzles but like to win even more? This Rubik’s Cube is for you. heh

Hey! Did you know they are changing Daylight Saving Time? Yea, well… it might mess up some of your gadgets. So read here to learn more. “What?? They changed DST??” you say? Why yes they did! Dirty, dirty monkeys… if you ask me.

So it’s that time again…
Friday Funnies
This week we visit GU Comics.. Gamer-centric comic, that covers everything surrounding gaming. Normally short paneled and gets right to the funny.

BTW, in case you missed the Grammy’s (because I know I did)… THE POLICE TOGETHER!!

SlickDeals has a couple bargains worth looking at today… not knowing how long they’ll last I’ll just give you a general link to the site. HERE!

Maybe some more later.

Sunday fun!

Had our swimming class on Saturday and it was good fun, while Carson and I were there Jenni painted in our room a bit… I’ll get a picture of that and put it up this week sometime. Finished off the day with dinner at Olive Garden, Carson was excited to see Nanny and Poppy… mmmm, breadsticks.

Sunday came and we decided to go hang out at the Children’s Museum for a bit before doing our taxes.. heh. Carson had a blast, just like he always does. The traveling exhibit this month is Clifford… Carson gave that big ole dog a hug.

From Sunday Fun

He also had a lot of fun with the diner they have set up, he was slingin’ lobsters and bananas… mmhmmmmm!

Click around over there to see all the fun stuff we did.. if you go to the Videos album there’s a new one of him at the bottom dancing with the dogs on the big screen there. Here’s a link to that album.

Special note to H & B, we love you both and are thinking about you a lot.

Quick notes

I’ve finally gotten over my cold (mostly), now it seems Jenni and Carson might be coming down with it… which sucks because they’ll probably give it back to me. 🙁

According to Download Squad, Gmail is now available to everyone! If you go through whatever steps to get an account and it doesn’t work, just let me know and I’ll send you an invite. I think I have 90 some odd invites.

SlickDeals comes up big with a link to a $5.99 DVD sale. Wooooo!

Espn featured a story about a Bears fan that lost a bet and now has to change his name. It’s funny and sad at the same time.

Been really busy lately… sorry about the lack of updates. I think I may have some pictures just sitting on my camera too. I should check into that.. heh.

Orange you glad I finally made a new post?

That’s right folks, I’m back… been swamped lately so there hasn’t been much time for posting. Here’s something we were doing:

Now you get the title, hah. It still needs some accessories for the walls but I think it is a really neat color and we had a lot of fun putting it up. I wish I had a more wide-angle lens on my camera because depending on the angle it looks brighter/darker in the photos. The actual color is somewhere in between. heh

I’m going to try to get back into a regular schedule of posting again soon.. see you all later.

Monday already?

It’s rough having a short weekend after having a nice long one… I might have to start a campaign at some point to get my 4 day work week idea off the ground. heh

COLTS WIN! It was an amazing effort by the defense to hold Larry Johnson to less than 40 yards.
Cowboys lose due to butter fingers, Patriots stun Jets, and the Eagles kick a last minute field goal to win their game. Good start the playoffs.

Put most of the Videos I have taken up on PicasaWeb… I’ve tried to put them in chronological order top to bottom, but I may have misplaced a few of them. Let me know if you spot one out of place. I’m going to move the Christmas videos into that album as well.
Oh, here’s the album.

…and we’re back!

Had some catching up to do with the house and work… so now that I’m pretty close to being caught up I figured I better put an update here.

While in Nebraska we went to Heather’s 30th birthday party, it was really fun seeing our friends and hanging out again!

From Heather's Bir…

New Year’s Eve was quiet for us, as more than half of the house was some kind of sick. We just stayed in and watched movies (and football). Which turned out ok given the 4+ inches of snow that got dumped, making going out less appealing anyway. Carson and I made time for a snow fight (since we haven’t really had any accumulated snowfall in Indiana).

From New Year's Fun

New Years Day was a great time for Carson to visit with all his friends in Nebraska. He really missed Jimmy and Bre and Logan (and baby Kilee too!).
