How Many Calories in a Guinness Beer?

Tuesday, February 5th, 2008

First things first, I AM ALIVE. A lot of things have gone on in the past month or two. Our home was basically destroyed because of a dumb ass plumber. So, $40K+ later, hopefully it will be fixed. We have moved, hit me up if you need the new address. I started a new gig…which […]

Prius Owners Can’t Drive, But Thanks

Tuesday, November 13th, 2007

I established a while back that Prius owners cannot drive, but felt compelled to say a few things here in their defense…and to thank them. You see, many of the green bashers (people who think doing things to conserve scarce resources is stupid) out there always use the argument that hybrid car owners are […]

Last.fm is the Shizzy

Thursday, October 18th, 2007

I like when I find things online that actually work. Most things are usually someone’s blatant attempt to monetize on someone coming to their site or using their service…which is fine by me. But, it just makes me take notice when I find something that I actually go back and use on my own because […]

Do you DoFollow?

Wednesday, September 19th, 2007

The first time I heard about this “dofollow” plugin for Wordpress, I thought, wow that could really turn up the heat from comment spammers, But, then I thought about it and realized that it is a great idea and for a number of reasons.

First, most applications don’t get really good until people lean on them […]

What is Therapy?

Monday, August 20th, 2007

I heard this definition early this morning and I thought it was pretty good:
Therapy is the process where someone helps you say better things about yourself.
Not sure why I like that so much, but I do.

Check out the New Logo…$10!

Monday, August 6th, 2007

Ok, more proof that the internet is helping to make many businesses and products into commodities. I recently found someone who was doing logo work for $10. Plus, he will do some revisions for you for that same dollar amount. Many people I know pay a few hundred bucks to get a new logo […]

Congrats to the Olriches

Tuesday, June 26th, 2007

Just want to send a little shout out to the man who helped coin the term “The Deliman.” Leslie and Scott are responsible for yet another beautiful baby boy, Tanner Olrich. Just want to say congrats and we are glad that the 9 pounder decided it was time to come out and play.

If You Need a Reason Not to Drink and Drive

Friday, June 15th, 2007

Drinking and driving is something we all know we are not supposed to do. Of course, I am sure we all know that we can make up a bunch of reasons why it is okay for us to drive after we have had a drink or two…or three. If you need a reason […]

Giants Win - Condi Rice Loses

Thursday, May 24th, 2007

So, I get an email yesterday from brother Tito asking me if I would like to go to the Giants’ game last night and of course I accept. It was one of those great weather days in San Francisco (you can count them on one hand) and I was psyched to get to watch […]

Mark Cuban…Silent

Monday, May 7th, 2007

I don’t know Mark Cuban, but a couple of years ago I used to read his blog every now and again. While he plays a jackass on tv, I think that I would probably like the guy if I knew him. Funny thing though, I was watching the end of the Warriors vs. Mavericks […]

Go Warriors

Thursday, May 3rd, 2007

Please do not call me tonight and tell me who won the Dallas vs. Golden State game tonight…we have it scheduled to record on the DVR boxes and will watch it after we get back from dinner tonight. Cant’ wait to see Baron and the scrappy Warriors take down the Mark Cuban show.

Prius Drivers Are Nuts

Monday, April 9th, 2007

If you own a Prius then please take yourself to the nearest DMV and have them retest your driving skills. And, if they pass you, please ask them to test you again. I have spoken to numerous people, including my wife, and they have all said the same thing, Prius drivers are the worst they […]

Playa del Carmen, Superbowl and Jesus

Monday, February 5th, 2007

I know you are all excited. I am back from Gareth and Cortney’s wedding in Mexico (Playa del Carmen to be exact) and I want to say a big “congrats” to the beautiful couple. Pictures will be coming shortly and you can probably see some of them in the Flickr deal to the left.
I also […]

Yahoo Index Update 1/17/2007

Friday, January 19th, 2007

In case you live in a hole in the wall or just don’t care, Yahoo! has apparently made some kind of index update or algo change that has caused a reshuffling of the SERPs. Since I really don’t pay much attention to my traffic on a daily basis anymore, I was not aware of […]

My Reason Why AOL Coulda Been a Contenda

Friday, January 12th, 2007

All of us geeks have had to deal with AOL at one time or another in our lifetimes on line. Either we installed AOL back in the day to make sure one or more of our sites were compatible with the AOL browser or we have had to deal with users and clients who could […]

US Nuclear Sub Hits Supertanker

Tuesday, January 9th, 2007

I mean, seriously? How the hell does a nuclear submarine, one of ours, hit anything let alone a supertanker? You can read more at ABC News. A little info on supertankers at Wikipedia. Last time I remember hearing about a US submarine hitting something it was when it sunk some Japanese tourist ship. […]

Noisy Neighbors Part II

Friday, January 5th, 2007

Well, it is 2007, and our neighbors have decided to let the kids run wild again upstairs. I am not really sure why this is on us, but I guess I have to start being an a-hole now. So be it. I tried, I was polite, we wrote a nice, but firm letter, I called […]

Best Adsense Image Implementation

Tuesday, January 2nd, 2007

Okay, so it is not really legit to put images next to your Adsense ads anymore…at least that is what Google says. But, we know that what people say and what people do are usually two different things, right? So, I was trying to figure out what the best MCE MPEG-2 decoder setup was, […]
