My Spin Through the City of Worcester Website
2007-09-21 18:24:00 Today, I was visiting the City of Worcester Web site to pay a bill (which is very handy, I might add), and being that I hadn't previously spent a lot of time on the site, I thought I would give it a spin. The first thing I noticed when visiting the site was that there is an image of a train in the upper, left-hand corner of the page. If you are reading this, and are the person responsible for More About: Website , Spin
O.J. Arrested
2007-09-18 03:15:00 Today, I was walking by the television in the lobby of my office, looked up at the screen quickly, and noticed the caption on CNN reading "O.J. Arrested ". Yes, that O.J. Apparently, he was arrested for trying to re-claim some of his allegedly stolen belongings in Las Vegas, and now faces 106 years in prison. Maybe someone should have let O.J. know that showing up to reclaim your belongings,
Google Adwords: Helping Millions of Internet Users Every Day!
2007-09-14 14:15:00 Morning folks - I was on the ever-reliable internet this morning, searching for information on pygmy goats, and was amused by the ads that showed up in my search results. According to the ads (shown here on the right) - you too can get your very own goat at Yahoo, Shopping.com, and eBay...err...eBay Motors. No, I don't think one can drive a pygmy goat.

Thank You, Worcester
2007-09-13 18:35:00 Dear Worcester , I just wanted to write you a quick "thank you" note for all that you have done for me recently. I decided not to send you a written "thank you" note, as you more than likely wouldn't be able to read my handwriting (and probably throw it away with all of your other fan mail). First off, I really want to let you know how much I appreciate your handling of the water supply-line More About: Hank

Child Labor
2007-09-10 16:33:00 What kid wasn’t a go-fer for their parents growing up? What did I get for having to go to the store ten times a day for my lazy father? A freaking dollar a week! Keep in mind this also included having to make my bed, clean my room, weed the garden (for those of you who have seen this, you know how large it really was), and make sure the Jesus statue was always facing the 38th parallel. I cannot More About: Labor , Child , Child labor
I Wish I Was Jason Bourne
2007-09-09 17:01:00 Topher note: I started writing this a few weeks ago, closer to when I had actually seen this movie, but just plain forgot about it until now. You know you love my ADD. Another Topher Note: Various Internet sources were used in gathering some of the small details for this post. Please refer to the last part of the previous note as to why I can't remember all details... I recently discovered More About: Jason , Bourne
What The?
2007-09-04 16:48:00 At what conference table in what company on EARTH did some complete idiot pitch this to their team? Additionally, what moron was it that said "WOW, I love it! Let's mass-produce it and send it to Americans!!"? If by chance, you happen to own one of these, disregard what you just read. End communication. Please make it end.

Letter
2007-08-16 22:30:00 Dear Bee Who Tried To Hijack My Car This Morning: I would like to take this opportunity to express to you my sheer unmitigated rage regarding the fact that you turned my otherwise normal ankle into something of a felt, stuffed Xavier Roberts elephantitis nightmare at approximately 7:50am on August 16th, 2007. If your life didn't immediately expire after you shivved my leg with your bum, I would More About: Letter
Networking...
2007-08-16 06:41:00 A week after commenting on another blog about trying to slow down, taking time to hone my work/life balance skills, etc. I go and join another networking site. I was warned this morning that it was addictive...that I would spend my time searching, viewing, connecting, etc. I thought "nah - I won't do that, I'll sign up, fill in my info, do a little networking, and that will be the end of it."

Dream Theater (Warning: this is probably not going to interest you)
2007-08-16 05:19:00 I just saw a commercial on ESPN advertising a show for the above mentioned band, who happens to be playing at the BOA Pavilion next week. I've never seen a commercial for them before, so I had to share. I rewound and rewatched the commercial seven times. Then, I thought about how I could record a commercial on my DVR without recording the Indians/Tigers game, so I could show my wife when she got More About: Theater , Warning , Dream , Interest , Dream Theater

Dieting - Take Seven Hundred and Forty Two
2007-08-14 16:48:00 While I am forced to eat relatively healthy, I still don't eat as well as I should. As a result...I've gotten squishy, and those around me don't like it. I can see it in their eyes. (People who have seen me shirtless SHOULD be applauding my efforts as they read this...) And now, in an effort to take your mind off of that previous thought, here's a little snippet from a previous dieting post on More About: Dieting
Home Alone
2007-08-13 04:58:00 The spouse is leaving for a few days, and the house will be mine. MINE! I will be the master of all I survey, including all internal airspace, every surface, every piece of furniture, all of the electronics, and each and every remote control. The house will then be under my unquestioned governance. My decisions will be made unilaterally. I will announce them to the house and, hearing no contest, More About: Home
