A Day in Paradise

We just watched Stuart Little with the girls and now Sid (our pet dwarf hamster) just got an upgrade from being “Sid” to being “Our brother, Sid”.
I need to put up pictures of SidCity2006 but over christmas we expanded his complex, it now consists of his condo (sleeping room, food, and a look out tower […]

Annie just came home from shopping with Stella and showed me her new shoes. After a minute she ran off and said “I need to put them on so I can feel how they look”.
I corrected her and told her that the term was actually “See how they Feel”. Which when thinking about it, isn’t […]

I’ve been saying I would do it for the last year or so, but as of a couple hour I’ve finally moved my crap over onto my server.
Running PHP5.1RC6 with Wordpress 2.0 SVN, you could say I’m living on the bleeding edge.
The downside of this is that dispite my efforts, email is still not really […]

E-Plus Mobilfunk - Handys und Tarife
So it looks like my mobile carrier just struck up a deal with skype for a 40EU/month Flat rate UMTS deal. That is VERY attractive.
I wonder if I could use the same package for both my phone and my laptop, or would I need to purchase 2 seperate packages.
Looking at […]

Fun Stuff : Global Nomad & Third Culture Kids : CafePress.com
TCK : CafePress.com
Thanks to the comment on my last post from Shoshauna, I was informed of a new shop for TCK gear. Thanks for the post and best of luck with the endeavour.

To Dream is To Fly
Yay, Kaia blogs! Yet another of my good RL friends converted to blogging.
I think I’ll take this time to celebrate two years of blogging… time’s fun when you’re having flies. I’ve got some new ideas of stuff I want to do with my blog. Transform this mess into a well-oiled marketing […]

Putting Jesus in Every Mailbox - New York Times
If a weapon as unlikely as a jawbone can slay an army, as the biblical story goes, then “Jesus,” direct-mailed on DVD to every household in Mecklenburg County, N.C., can offer salvation.
Hey, it worked for AOL! Although, sending the DVDs to small cities in bible-belt states is […]

Monks run out of the world’s best beer
Monks at a Belgian abbey have been forced to stop selling their famous beer after it was voted the best in the world and was promptly sold out.
…
“We are not brewers, we are monks. We brew beer to be able to afford being monks,” the father abbot […]

MIT Weblog Survey

So instead of stressing over some code issues I’m going to take a couple minutes out to reflect on life, love, the pursuit of happiness, and what the guy in front of me is so busy doing on his laptop. This guy seriously needs a life, sitting on the train, could be reading a good […]

Another Day in Paradise
yet another boring story that nobody will read

unsignedukmusic
Awesome stuff here from “Up 4 the Downstroke”, I don’t have an URL, or any information… all I know is I heard them on Adam Curry’s Daily Source Code podcast and think the are TERRIFIC!
There are a couple mp3’s at the above url. If anyone knows where I can find more of their great stuff […]

Asbestos Blog
OK, now on my ongoing “series” about how I plan to get rich and famous (at least rich) I’m looking at adsense and see that the Asbestos Blogger (as featured in this Slashdot article) still has Asbestos adsense ads on his blog. Although I can’t imagine Google is letting him have any money […]
