A Very Important Event
It was brought to my attention last night that a very important event came and went without mention this week. In fact, the person who brought said event to my attention even went as far to check my blog for confirmation of the event and was left confused because of my silence. I am so [...]
To All My Jewish Friends… And Everyone Else
(Don't read this until sundown) Happy Rosh Hashanah to all my Jewish friends!

Day After Christmas
It's the day after Christmas and I'm enjoying my day off. I've been drinking kona coffee, eating orange frosted cinnamon rolls, playing Mario Kart, listening to Feist and having a pleasant morning at home.
Erin and I are both on vacation through the 2nd of January. I think this will be the longest vacation we've ever [...]
Poor Cow and the Season of Spending
It's funny how the lyrics of a song can go unnoticed for the longest time and then hit you unexpectedly. I thought these lyrics were rather interesting in light of this season which has become largely about spending.
