Book Review…

Mercury Falls – I have come to know a lot of neat folks whilst blogging, one of them is one Rob Kroese, aka Diesel and my friend Rob has written a couple of books. I received a copy of his first venture, Mercury Falls a while ago and finished it during the visit to Disney World. Mercury Falls will garner lots of comparisons to Dogma – there’s angels, end of the world, angels betraying other angels, yada, yada, yada… but it takes a slightly more sardonic, and less anti-Catholic approach that makes for an excellent page turner. Rob did a great job writing a very funny book. Can’t wait to dig into his next creations. This would make a perfect vacation book – go get it!

more of the traditional type of good days

Sunday, August 22nd, 2010

So yesterday was more of the traditional type of good days. One where I did not have to back up and take a look to really see the good through the brambles of some bummers. It’s just goodness all up in your grill.

My ex-wife’s migraine receded enough for the kiddos to go see her and spend the night.

My truck has been fixed and the bill was a bit of a hit, but absolutely better than what I was expecting. I can not tell you how much I appreciate Danny over at Medford Sunoco for coming in on a Saturday morning just to work on my car. I will still absolutely take my car to Chad’s for maintenance, but it’s good to know there is someone this close that I can count on as well (especially when I’m worried about driving the car more than a couple of miles).

I also got in a really good run yesterday afternoon. For those of you that run and have an iPhone, I can’t say enough about RunKeeper Pro – this app is such an incredible tool for training. It’s pricey ($10), but definitely worth it.

On top of those good things, I had a great day working on several client sites - Stone Scapes By Rich, The Family Registry, Independence Seaport Museum, Hope for Humanity, and a few projects still under wraps until launch.

Today, Abbe and I are going for a 10 mile run at Cooper River Park and then we also need to spend some time clearing off countertops, because tomorrow the crew is arriving to start tearing them up! That’s right the NeedCounterTops.com contest I won is becoming a reality. Monday, the old countertops are coming out and Tuesday, the new sink, backsplash, and countertops are going in! Also on Tuesday, the folks from BEN FM 95.7 are going to be visiting my house – I have no idea if I’m being interviewed or videotaped, this should be fun!

Oh and I recorded this… this is just the outro to Jeff Buckley’s So Real

I’m not sure how many guitar players there are out there reading me, but that song has a lot of incorrect or close to correct version of the tab for this specific part, so I thought I’d post this…

OUTRO: (play throughout the end of the song)

loving your pets

Sunday, June 13th, 2010

That’s right, it was Saturday night at Van’s Tavern and Abbe is doing what?…

Dog Makeouts

Actually, Abbe was giving Yogi an ice cube in this picture. My buddy Chris came over with his guitar and two six packs of good beer and we drank a few brews, played lots of guitar, and watched UFC 115 (the Franklin-Liddell and the Cro Cop-Barry fights had amazing endings). I’ve got another busy day today filled with coding and logo design.

on your marks…

Today starts, a very short and very busy week for me. My goal is to get a site/blog completed today for a fellow BNI member, here’s the landing page …

And here’s the WordPress blog template…

Shouldn’t be too bad, I like Kelly’s idea of making the site look like a collection of iPhone apps (had to find a good Photoshop tutorial on how to create the buttons).
