Where I Am Right Now (rant numbero uno)

After existing in a Bart Simpson-like zen for my early teen years, it's actually somewhat surprising for me to find myself where I am now. I guess I always figured I'd take life like it comes, somewhat like hanging on to a train while cruising the world. Never thought I'd ...

Bono on Stories Told Through Color

I feel badly in need of inspiration. The color is going out of my life. Autumn is retreating as the cold North Wind marches on. U2 18 Vertigo/05 Live from Milan Bono: "So, we’re making a DVD here...tonight. Thank you for being a part of the film...the little movie we’re making of tonight. Grazie ...

Autumn is here to stay, I say

I don't have much to say lately. The economy is unimportant to me (in case you've tucked your head under a rock somewhere, Bush and the corporations got caught together in bed which means the financial system is in a crisis. The old white guy that's running for Prez is ...

Big Day At WWDC

WWDC meant Twitter would definitely be put to the test. And ready it was. It had to limit API requests to 10 per hour, but hey, it stayed up for the most part. Congrats to the Twitter team on that accomplishment. It was a good day. Now that iPhones are cheaper ...

WWDC Tomorrow

I mean as if you haven't heard 300 times already. WWDC IS TOMORROW! What gives? A new iPhone, a new Mac, Snow Leopard? It promises to be the most underrated and overrated event of the year as always. Anyway I'm excited but right now I just wish I could sleep. I ...

The Brown Line

I have eleven drafts in ecto that I never published either because I never finished writing them or I didn't feel comfortable making them public once I was finished. I don't feel like tackling any of those subjects right now, so I'll give a quick life update. Yes, I am done ...

It’s Called Maybe Blogging

Like everyone else in this grand planet, I've been busy. And to the 7 regular readers of this blog (and the millions thousands hundreds of you that just arrived here today and desperately left in a hurry), I apologize for the inconsistent blogging. The truth is, I haven't been too busy ...

Back From Grenada

I'm back from a week-long missions trip to Grenada along with the rest of my class. I'm working on cleaning up my inbox and otherwise getting caught up in the tech world now. Amazing how much you can miss in a week. Here's a few things I never thought about ...

Jason Upton’s Blog

So I know I'm a little slow, but hey, if I stumble upon something big I want the world to know about it whenever I find out, even if that is later rather than sooner. Jason Upton has a blog that is updated once in a great while. That probably shouldn't ...

It’s a Lazy Spring Day

So today I broke out the bow from the hard black case up in the attic (where it's been sitting for the past 2 years) and shot at a Black Hole with my brother. It's a Browning Rage, maybe five years old but looks and shoots like new. I got ...

Yes We Can!

It's election eve and everyone's calling a blowout for Obama. There's this big lump swelling up in my throat; to call this historical is an understatement. Americans pulled together and did what they thought was best for their nation. And they finally elected a Presidential ticket that did not include ...

Why A Vote For McCain Is NOT A Vote For Life

Life is something God-breathed, something sacred. It's a mystery that no one can explain; but it is a divine gift from the earth and our ancestors. Perhaps that's why we cherish it so much. It really is all we have, when all the shells and facades and influences and experiences ...
