How I Keep Up

There are tons of things going on out there on the internet that I want to keep tabs on but for the most part it is impossible to keep up. And that’s OK.
I’m constantly evolving the way I keep up with things but lately this is how I’ve been doing it, with the key being [...]


Zappos rocks

I love sneakers. I have to restrain myself from buying a new pair anytime Jen and I are out shopping or anytime I happen to surf on over to zappos.com. I’ve been a huge fan of theirs for many years now and have bought a bunch of shoes from them.
Not until recently did I find [...]


ESPN Fan Profiles

In the short time I’ve been working at ESPN I’ve learned a lot and have done a ton but haven’t had much to show for it since it was almost all behind the scenes development work. Well, the stuff I’ve been developing, along with the help of some of the best developers I’ve ever had [...]

Photobooth

Jen and I take a photo at the Shortstop’s photobooth on the day of the first Dodger game of the season that we go to. It’s a tradition three years running now and yesterday we took our photo for this season’s first game attended.

You can see 2007 here and 2006 here.

My introduction to Joel Nakamura was by chance about [...]

In wedding preparation news, we bought our wedding bands, I got Jen’s engagement ring (same diamond) updated to the ring I wanted [...]


I Drink Soy Milk

I don’t know anyone who loves milk as much as myself.
No one.
I am the quintessential kid who grew up on a bowl of cereal or a pop tart and a glass of milk. I am a child of the 80’s and milk was my fuel.
My idols advertised it with the Got Milk campaigns and [...]


Wedding Plans Update

This past weekend Jen and I got a lot done on the wedding front.
It’s already crunch time in terms of getting vendors lined up and things ordered that take weeks or months on end to make or deliver. Included in the lot are invitations, wedding dress (a big check off the list), our engagement [...]


It

OK!
This is it.
My new blog on my shiny new server that I have root access to and can kick the crap out of.
This is a test post akin to lorem ipsum but babble from my brain instead.
This is what I am doing on Friday night! Coding and blogging and obsessing over RSS feeds and how [...]
