First game: 151

That might not be the greatest news for regular bowlers, but add a 102 handicap on top of that and you’ll see why I’m bragging.

I also won $40

Had the longest weekend ever and managed to stay computerless the whoe time.

Felling fully energized as I walk to work this morning. The downside is that my work email box filled up and 2 days of messages bounced. Oops. Serves me right for changing an email settin right before heading home on friday (long story, basically I tried to move a rather large IMAP folder and thunderbird screwed up and made multiple copies of the folder).

At rthe office will try to catch up on stuff

I wonder how this works

Just heard marilyn mansons rendition of sweet dreams. Very well done.

I am slightly distracted as I walk to work today. When you start managing a team of developers it seems that short weeks turn into a bad thing instead of something that is looked forward to.

This week we are fitting in a weeks worth of development into 3 days. FUN

On the flip side, I won $25 in blind doubles bowling last night. This thing might turn into a career aftert all.

Everywhere I go smells like paint. Is it written somewhere that everyone has to paint their house this week?

I was reading this editorial that states some of the reasons for not investing in Barnes and Nobels as “future revenue gains will be miserly because of competition from video games, the Internet, TV and a declining literacy rate.”

They say that during economic downturns people have more time to read books. The problem this time around is that people will probably be reading them on the internet or handheld devices, and BKS hasn’t done much to capture the internet market.

Amazon is moving forward with the announcement of their new ebook system, Blockbuster is expanding the business with their Netflix-like services. As much as I like Barnes and Nobels, they are one of the brick and mortar companies that are going to be left behind for not upgrading their technology.

As far as entertainment stocks I have me some AMZN, and am thinking that HAST looks like a pretty good buy – depending on how their earnings come out tomorrow. Might buy some after lunch.

I love the South Florida Science museum. Not only do they have a ton of geeky and amusing exhibits, but they provide comfortable seats and a napping area in the planetarium

Got up at 5 this morning to show Davey off, had a couple of cups of tea and finished reading “A World Without End” which was a fantastic read. After spending the day running around, by the time the 2pm panetarium showing started I was very ready for a nice 45 minute nap

Reading the palm beach post (yes I’ve started reading a dead tree paper) I can’t help but notice that over the last few weeks palm beach has become a landing spot for several different groups of people.

Haitians who come here to take advantage of our economy and Cubans who are fleeing from oppression and welcomed by weeping relatives.

We have two identical stories of two groups of people who are probably fleeing similar hardships and just becaude of the point of origin the are glorified or villified by the press.

I am holding out for this bad boy

Thinking about the yahoo vs china vs us senator situation. The more I try to figure out what would have been the “right” thing to do the more convinced I am that anarchy is the only morally acceptabe political stance.

Catch me at roxys and we’ll discuss this in depth over a couple beers.

I just arrived at work.

Dear readers,
I write this to you as I travel down the elevator on the first leg of my 6.5 minute daily walk to work. As all of my regular readers know this blog has fallen into a sad state of disrepair over the last few months.

Now it seems like this short walk is the only time that I have to think for myself before each workday sets in.

I hope by using this time to blog I’ll be able to get some fresh content up on my site.

Maybe I’ll also start a linkblog, since I come in contact with a ton of links every day.

I am on my way to work when I get the feeling that my bag is warmer than usual. After a quick investigation I discover that the entire contents of my bag have been soaked in coffee. I guess that new coffee cup I got from costco wasn’t water tight after all.

Thankfully nothing was permanently damaged. My blackberry got its first coffee baptism and seems to be doing fine (8700 is indistructable).

So I onlt lost 10 minutes and am now bagless and coffeelessly on m$y way to work.

And we thought Firefox was leaky
