Then there was New Mexico

This photo is from sometime before I was in the third grade. Who knows exactly when. I'm gonna guess 1971 or maybe 1972. I think it's at Bandalier National Monument in Northern New Mexico. Bandalier ranks right up there with Mesa Verde as one of my favorite ruin sites to visit. I mean think about [...]

Spotty European Memories

6/2/2010 – 5:03 pm

When I was in the fourth grade, my dad and step-mom decided to take the whole family to Europe. It was my first time there. As soon as we got out of school that year (maybe even a day early as I remember it), we sauntered off to Houston's Intercontinental Airport to fly to the [...]

More GPS Goodness

Now I'm glad that our Jeep was broken into and our Garmin was stolen. Because as soon as Timmy sees this, I am certain he'll be ordering a Tom Tom from Amazon. Is it better than a Yeti? Yes. Yes it is.

Yeti in the Jeep

3/4/2010 – 10:25 am

[UPDATE 3/15/10 - Even though this article is fairly kind to Garmin, I've since had to actually deal with the company. I have sworn off of Garmin because of their total lack of Customer Service. The short story is that they want me to pay an additional $50 to re-download a map I already paid [...]

California and Texas, first and second. Or not.

The state of Oregon has 3,825,657 people in it. Divide that into the miles run in 2010 (23,192) and you get 6.06 miles per thousand people in Oregon.

How Many Geniuses does it take…

12/23/2009 – 7:25 pm

How many geniuses does it take to fix an iMac? The short answer is 1, but the more complex answer is 2. Unless you count the genius who broke it in the first place (that would be me). I gotta say I love my ginormous iMac. It's the first desktop computer I've ever had that [...]
