There Goes the ‘Nati Hood!

Skyline Chili Spaghetti and Coney

After crying for a while over my beautiful ride while it rolled into the shop, I got my rental and booked a few extra nights in Columbus, Ohio using Priceline. As good as the successful bids were, I had a feeling I could have lowballed it even more and still get a room at one…

Papa’s Got a Brand New Keyboard Bag!

Apple Wireless Keyboard

Disclosure: Waterfield Designs was gracious enough to send me a complimentary keyboard travel case for me to review here. I recently purchased a wireless keyboard to use for my iPod Touch, primarily to make it easier for me to type more extensively when I’m still mobile or on the road. There were times when I…

One month down, three to go! Up yours summer!

Y’all ready for Daylight Savings Time?

Penguin and Polar Bear

Well I’ll lose an hour of sleep, but at least it won’t get dark at 3 o’ clock in the afternoon anymore, which gives me more time for geocaching! Sunday also marks the last day I’ll be using this 8 year old computer too. My spanking new desktop rig should be arriving Monday, when I…
