The Road House

So last night, my hot librarian girlfriend was out at an author dinner, the boy was with his dad for the weekend, the house was cleaned, and I had the night to myself.  There was shit on the tv, and I for one was determined not to waste my evening away watching House Hunters or some such bull...

Dynamic Data - Entity Framework Payoff

I recently threw together a quick project for an internal customer who needed a spreadsheet turned into a web accessable database with a user base of about 5 people.  We had decided to use EF and Dynamic Data since this was really not a huge app, and there was no sense in turning it into a mo...

Keep the Internet Free!

I work at a client that has a very restricted proxy server.  No fewer than 20 times a day, I click on a link, any link, and get the "You Are Evil and We Are Tracking You!" page that tells me I am not allowed to access the content on the other side of the link. Alot of this blocke... [More]

Dick Armey: Making Some Sense

Link to an article on keeping the government out of the business or regulating the internet. Reading between the lines, you can see he is clearly in it for the side of the financial institutions, worried about their added costs and responsibilities, but in the end, if it keeps the internet fr...

Sheriff Tom Dart is the Man!

It's not very often that you hear about a guy like Tom Dart, and I'm always in awe when I do.  This guy is truly a bad mother fucker, a guy who sticks his neck out for what's right, risks his own well being when he knows it's the right thing to do. I hope you have heard o... [More]

Normal

Normal is getting dressed in clothes that you buy for work and driving through traffic in a car that you are still paying for - in order to get to the job you need to pay for the clothes and the car, and the house you leave vacant all day so you can afford to live in it.   - Ellen ... [More]

I Don't Like My Site

I have lived with it for a while now, and I have decided that I really don't like my site that much.  The software driving it is ok, but the design is lacking....usability I suppose. Don't like the black background, it makes it hard to read.  The text is too small. ... [More]

Is Anyone Else Concerned About NorthCom?

You don't have to live in a cave to have missed the news about the official arming of NorthCom, because it has really been a back burner of a story.  Don't know why though, because this is like a HUGE deal.  In America, we have no standing army of combat ready troops, prepared to... [More]

McCain is Out of Touch

Watched the debates last night, and something really clicked which has me a little off edge.  McCain and Obama were going on about health care, Obama spoke of his grandmother dying in the hospital and arguing with insurance companies.  McCain had no such story.  Why?  Because h... [More]

An Enlightening Walk

I went on a walk around my block tonight.  It's not something I do very often, but this was a particularly pleasant evening, and I live in a particularly pleasant neighborhood, so the combination was irresistable, I had to do it.  The neighborhood was quiet, like a ghost town, just b... [More]
