Happy Belated Birthday Alaire!
It was yesterday but I was too self-obsessed about my Apple Watch arriving and trying to get the Nick Offerman story posted. Since Alaire gets to celebrate over in San Jose to see my friend Ethan and the three cool … Continue reading

Yet another idea I should’ve thought of
It’s called Send a Jart which means (in English) Send a Fat in a Jar, I added the cloud above for effect but obviously my Photoshop skills are rudimentary at best. Obviously a Jart is one of those gifts you … Continue reading

Nick Offerman
I feel a little guilty about going to this book signing because I have never seen Parks & Recreation…before you flood me with the deluge of “Oh god! How could you have missed…” blah, blah, blah. Hey, I do like the … Continue reading

Tomorrowland Worth Seeing

Happy birthday Anna!
Today she makes her first step toward becoming a teenager since 13 is the probationary period. Maybe it’s more of a transition, like being on a midshipman’s cruise in Star Trek, it’s not possible to fail at being a teenager. If … Continue reading
Something tied to 1990
June is often a tough month for me. I’m always late with graduation stuff which really takes place in May with the bulk of the US (d’oh!). I thought about weighing in my last Summer as a college student but … Continue reading
