Notes to people in my life, 2
We’ll take a short break from “The Best of…” to give you something fresh and minty to chew on while we allow the great posts to simmer just a little longer. Let it linger in the broth and soak up the juices. Although letting bytes and bits soak in any liquid is dangerous…
Anyway, the notes to people in my life [...]

Notes to people living in my world, p...
I know you have a performance later tonight at the Big Brother house that is situated nearly next door, but repeating, “Five, six. Five six. Door. Two. Two. Door”, as loudly as you can over and over is no longer acceptable. My sleeping pattern has become affected. Destruction, international incidents and other scary and wac [...]
Roundup
Hey all. Hope this Thursday finds you in a happy place.
Denver looks to get snowbound! Yahoo News reports here that a blizzard warning has been issued and that,
“A 125-mile corridor from Colorado Springs to the New Mexico border was under a blizzard warning.”

Bathrooms
I have previously discussed my distaste for public restrooms. I don’t like them much. But like a true trooper I use them anyway and pray that nothing terrible comes of me using a public restroom.

I’ve met some good people doing this whole blogging once a day. You should meet them too. Take a look at the website that was setup: Link here.
I think the “hotlinking” scandel of 2006 has passed for the most part. I’v [...]
Hot Linking
Oh, hi there!
Since it’s something to post about, here we go!
Over here at this link: click here for more someone decided to hot link to an image I featured on my website here. It was a picture of Kaylee from Serenity/Firefly. She is a cute lady and fine actress. I was looking through my stats for my website and found that there were [...]
Manic Monday
Not really a Manic Monday but more of a Mundane Monday. Less excitement today. Came into work and talked about recruitment and realized there is a giant holiday hiring problem. It’s not so much a problem as it is a challenge. We have much work to do in the next three weeks. We are going to be feeling the pain all over the center.
