I was listening to a This American Life podcast from a bit ago, part of which discussed amnesia. The story was interesting, though wasn't really about amnesia per se. But it got me thinking about it in role playing game terms (I'm working up to G...

Keeping in Sync, Part 2

2009-02-13T19:50:52Z

Yesterday I talked (in far too much detail and at far too much length) about how I keep my calendar's in sync and available to whenever I need them. Today I'm going to talk a little (hopefully only a little...) about my current system for keeping...

Keeping in Sync

2009-02-12T22:23:38Z

So I've been meaning to write this up for a bit now, and Google's recent switching on of over the air syncing (via licensed from MS active sync tech), and my friend Dave's recent entry about the issues he's run into there, has finally given me the...

Music Game Question

2008-03-26T14:36:42Z

So now that I have a bit more steady income, I think at some point soon I may go ahead and try to get one of those new-fangled rock-music games. I won't be getting it in the next week or so, but once I've built up my bank account a bit more again...

A Return?

2008-01-16T19:25:52Z

I haven't been a regular blogger for some time now, at least a year or two (I haven't gone back through my archives to see when the last time I was updating with any regularity was but it was certainly a while ago), but I may try to start doing it...

New Years Eve?

2007-12-28T21:19:04Z

Sarah and I have realized that New Years Eve is nearly upon us, and we have no plans. We have also found very few people who seem to have plans. So our question is, does anyone have any plans? Can we come? Does anyone want to make plans? Post...

Looking for Suspenders

2007-10-29T19:22:26Z

Anyone have some suspenders I can borrow for Halloween? Trying to be the "80's guy" from Futurama, and it's the last piece I need for the costume. Hermes: "Our new Cheif Executive Officer is.... That guy!" Gavin: If you're going to dress...
