This Could Be It....

Is the IMBC over? It looks like Hammy didn't post yesterday. Damn, that would make it 61 consecutive days of blogging. I'm gonna wait for the IMBC homepage to update before I let myself believe that my daily blogging duty has been lifted from my...

First day on the job

I spent the afternoon playing with an application called Cuteftp 8 Pro. It's an FTP client that gives you a nice Windows-styled interface for connecting with and using ftp servers. I took a look around two ftp sites, poked around the folders, and ...

More Culinary Delights Tonight

Christine and I made some gnocchi tonight - they're like the vegetarian's version of meatballs. Gnocchi is made with flour, garlic, ricotta cheese, parsley, and mozzerella. Once you mix all the ingredients together, you roll the mix into meatball...

Indiana Jones and the Not-As-Bad-As-I-Was-Expecting-At-All Sequel

nobody@vox.com(OldManLever) — Wed, 28 May 2008 23:37:43 -0300

Christine and I went to see the Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull tonight with my parents. Dad and I were kind of wanting to see Iron Man as well (maybe even more so), but we agreed that Indy would probably go over better with o...

A friend has rejoined us

nobody@vox.com(OldManLever) — Tue, 27 May 2008 19:10:54 -0300

Well, look who's back. I hope you enjoyed the vacation, Pat, but I think it's about time renewed your Exploration. We're waiting, you know. And now that you have freed yourself from the IMBC and the burden of its daily requirements, I hope to see ...

Sunday Morning Headache

nobody@vox.com(OldManLever) — Sun, 25 May 2008 16:53:20 -0300

Actually, I don't feel that bad. But I sure have been moving around slowly today. I had a lot of fun last night. The show was great - I think everybody I know from Cape Breton all ended up at the show. It was like a big reunion! Christine joined ...

Saturday Night Fever (Did I already use this for a previous blog post?)
