I am considering sending my kids to a private school. In researching such places, we found the Nueva School. (nice site) We recently went to a little seminar they held explaining the school. It had teachers, administrators and students. The Campus There are actually two different schools. The one we visited was a K-8 school…
Cute 4 year old My son Matthew at 4 years old Clearly, 4 years old is your maximum cuteness level.
We have a family dog named Leroy. (Named after the hero from the cult classic “The Last Dragon”) He is a 18 month old black Labrador Retriever with some other breed mixed in; maybe a greyhound? Leroy is obsessed with running after a thrown tennis ball. He can do it for hours and runs ridiculously…
I love song covers. I love when someone can take a familiar song and completely transform it into a new genre. This one made me so happy. I wish more bands would do this. Remember when Johnny Cash covered Hurt by Nine Inch Nails? or Limp Bizkit’s Faith by George Michaels? or Red Hot Chilli…
I shouldn’t post this, but I can’t help myself. It’s an email thread from my son. I’m not feeling well. Could you help me with it? I feel like my brother is constantly yelling at me angrily, and I’m having a miserable time at soccer but mom won’t let me quit. You are great at helping…
I just realized I have been working on web stuff for 18 years. There are employees here that are 18. Ugh, that makes me feel old. Some fond memories: spacer.gif – When Netscape 2 came out and introduced the <TABLE> tag, I was thrilled. I could make something that was actually designed. However, I needed…
Some of my pet peeves: Kids who leave every single light in the house on when they leave for school. Wife who leaves the radio blaring at 7:30am after she leaves the house for the day. Colleagues who leave the projector on in a conference room after they leave. People who leave conference rooms messy…
Psychology is sometimes obvious, yet people make the same psychological mistakes over and over again. Last year, the Jets acquired Tim Tebow from Denver. Although Tim is a poor quarterback, he is a “winner” and helped Denver go far in the playoffs. The Jets started the first game using Tebow effectively, putting him during short…
When I was a kid, a million dollar house was a mansion. People in million dollar houses were rich, very rich. Now, a million dollar house (in the SF Bay Area) is nothing. It’s a 3 bedroom, 1,700 sq ft house in San Mateo. San Mateo is not a rich neighborhood at all. Someone owning…
I don’t like getting a ton of tweets, so I don’t follow anyone. For a while I followed Brittany from Glee. She was hilarious. My favorite tweet from her: This two shall past. — Brittany (@BrittanyGLEE) March 6, 2012 Genius. But I was bored. Too few tweets. I need a little more. So I decided to…
Almost everyone with a tennis racquet has pretended it was a guitar. Tennis companies have pioneered the science of materials when it comes to making racquets incredibly stiff and light. Guitars have exactly the same requirement. Yet most guitars are made out of wood. In fact, most electric guitars are kinda heavy and start to…

WordPress is evolving alot. I am running 3.6 beta 1. The new add post page has all these “formats”. I don’t quite understand them, but the icons look great. (I wonder what they do!?) I suppose I will try them over the next few weeks. I also upgraded to the built in Twenty-Thirteen theme. I…
It’s all so clear to me. This is the year that everyone will have perfect hindsight.
